Attacked(2)
"Hey!" Renee exclaimed as soon as we got to another portion of the store.
I glanced back and let out a sigh of relief when Kyle wasn't there.
"What do you do that for? You seem rude all of a sudden, you know." She scowled.
"I'm not rude. I don't like him." I pointed out.
"I think I like him." She said.
"Well, you like every guy!"
Renee frowned at my outburst.
I didn't stop though. "I have nothing against that but I don't wanna see him around tonight in the house. I don't like his presence."
"Geez, Lena. Cut me some slacks. I know I get aroused a lot." She grinned then continued, "I'm human after all."
"But, I won't invite him over. I'm cautioning myself from guys now. They seem to take me for granted." She stated seriously.
"Okay, because I don't like the way he's leering at me especially."
Renee rolled her eyes, before tugging me to a new section as we went about with our shopping.
When the sun began to set, we decided to leave the store. As soon as we stepped out, Kyle's irritating face came into view.
"Hey Ladies, how about I give you a lift?"
I swirled then glared at Renee who was ready to leap at the offer.
"We are going nowhere with you!"
"Geez, chillax." He held out his hand, then chuckled.
"Lena, he's just trying to help us," Renee said.
"Don't fucking say my name." I gritted my teeth, before glancing back to Kyle who was smirking.
Great, the freak knew my name because of Renee's inability to shut her big mouth.
"I mean no harm, and I wouldn't want beautiful ladies like you to use the public bus."
His eyes stayed on mine throughout the conversation.
However, I didn't glance away even as he was freaking me out.
After much deliberation, I agreed to his offer and Renee and I went with him.
The ride home wasn't a quiet one like I wanted it to be.
Rather Kyle and Renee were busy chit-chatting about random and silly things.
It got to a point, I began to doze off, only to be awakened by Renee's voice.
"Thank you for the ride." She winked at him.
"Hey, that's rude!" Renee exclaimed as I began to walk towards the porch.
I got into the living room, then shifted the curtain to see Renee locking lips with Kyle.
"So much for not wanting to get together with anyone," I mumbled, with an eye roll.
Walking to the door, I unlocked it then stuck out my head. "Don't forget to bolt the door."
"Stop embarrassing me, Lena," Renee yelled back.
"Whatever!" I shouted.
Kyles' eyes were on me the whole time. There was something weird about the way he kept staring at me, but I didn't know what it was.
Sighing, I stepped to my room, plopped on my bed.
Spreading my hands out, I hummed to the sound of the music drifting in from the other compartment. I stayed in the position I was in for a while before I dozed off.
******************************************
A groan escaped my lips as a soft rap sounded on the door.
"Who's there?"
I knew the person outside wouldn't hear me because I was talking to the pillow, rather to myself.
The knock sounded yet again, and before I could lift myself off the bed, the door went ajar.
The person must have been too impatient that he broke the door, our freaking door!
Furious, I leapt out of bed to confront the intruder. Only to wish I hadn't.
Three men with bloodshot eyes were in the living room doing only God knew what.
Immediately I stepped in, they twisted to stare at me.
Their faces contorted in a scowl, and each let out a low growl.
Suddenly, veins popped out of their heads and necks, one had his fangs retracted and swished towards me. He grabbed my neck and clutched me to him.
I jerked whilst struggling to release his grip on me, but he didn't let go.
I shut my eyes as his cool hands brushed my hair away from my neck, and he bent his head.
I trembled as I felt his cool breath on my neck before he was shoved off me.
I let out a sigh of relief only to let out another shriek.
"Drew!" Kyle who was the one that had saved me growled whilst trying to restrain the red hair that had gripped me earlier.
Eventually, Kyle snapped his neck, and I let out a strangled shriek.
"Elena, what's going on?" Renee's groggy voice sounded.
I heard her trudging to where we were.
I swirled and was about to whisper to her not to come any further but it was too late.
Her eyes took in what was going on, and one of the men did the mistake of shifting into a werewolf in front of her.
She gasped, before slumping to the floor.
I moved to help her, however, Kyle gripped my hands and tried to tug me towards the entrance but I did not yield.
He raised his left hand, and he smacked me with the back of his palm.
My ears tingled, and I felt the part of my face the blow had landed on broken.
Blood drew from my lips because I had bitten it due to the force of the blow.
I blinked away the tears threatening to spill out whilst trying to make meaning out of whatever was happening.
Then it dawned on me, what Aiden had been trying to explain.
They are after me.
They are here to kill me.
But why?
I had been right about Kyle being weird, and I wished there was something I could have done to prevent him from knowing where I reside.
But, he knew already and here he was.
My eyes roamed around the room frantically as I thought of a way out. Yet, whatever escape route on my mind would be futile since I wouldn't be able to handle three supernatural beings.
An idea came to my head, and I took action before thinking about it. I shoved my right leg into Kyle's groin catching him unaware.
He yelped, letting go of my hand.
I made use of the opportunity as I darted into my room, bolted the door then snatched my phone from the nightstand.
"Please pick, please pick up." I chanted, as my hand trembled whilst gripping it.
I heard shuffling from the other side, followed by several bangs on my door. My heart thudded with each.
"Hey, what's up?" Aiden's relaxed voice penetrated my brain, and I let out a sigh of relief.
"Please help!"
"What's wrong?" He mumbled.
"They are here Aiden!"
"Freaking B*tch!" Kyle yelled as he booted the door.
Kyle gripped my hair, leading me across the room. I winced in pain as he flung me on the couch.
"You'll f*king pay for what you did!"
He slammed his hand on my face yet again. The tears I had been trying to keep at bay slipped down from my cheeks.
Kyle hoisted me, then gripped my neck.
My eyes bulged as I struggled against him. This was far worse than how Aiden had gripped me.
Aiden had gripped my neck because he was angry, and he didn't have the intention of killing me.
"We were told to bring her alive." A boy with light brown curly hair and blue eyes said.
He was slightly younger than the rest. Perhaps, he would be the same age as I or a year difference between us.
Kyle stopped as he glanced at him. He shrugged, then walked across the room.
"Damn J.J!" Kyle grunted whilst releasing his grip.
I wheeze, before taking in two big gulps of air.
Aiden was right after all. I shouldn't have doubted him.
"Elena!" Aiden's voice resounded as he yelled from outside.
Aiden was here!
He came to me.
My heart leapt with happiness as he yelled out my name again.
"In here, Aiden!" I shouted.
"Shut the F up bitch. So he came uhn? The Alpha Aiden." Kyle moved to the window, then stepped back as he tutted. "I'm not surprised though, he's always acted this way towards any girl."
Any girl?
I didn't dwell on whatever he had said, all I wanted was to get the heck out of the room, away from them.
"Cora, they are here!" A girl who was barely younger than I appeared from the Kitchen. She licked her cherry coloured lips and held up a knife with her.
Her hazel eyes twinkled as she stepped towards me.
She was beautiful despite having her brunette hair done in a messy bun. She beamed, showing the brace in her teeth.
"Who are we killing?" She asked whilst grinning.
"I need you to recite the spell for the doorway sealing thingy, and we are not killing her," Kyle said pointing at me.
Cora seemed like she wanted to argue until Kyle added, "J.J's order."
The name almost made me hurl but I had to hold myself together.
I looked to where Renee was sprawled and wondered if she was breathing at all.
I attempted to go check up on her, but Cora stopped me.
"Move, and you'll see your gut on the floor." She growled.
I stayed in the position I was in, counted to ten as well as prayed silently for Aiden to move in before my gut would be spilt as had Cora threatened.
