She could hardly keep her eyes open because the pain in her whole body was way too much and the lack of hope in her eyes made her exhausted.
One may live without oxygen for a few seconds but without hope. One cannot even live for a millisecond if there is no hope to live. The hope for a better day.
“ bring the fire, this girl will be killed in front of everyone, so that no one ever dares to go against their own Vampire King, “ Tyler said as everyone gulped in fear.
No one ever wished to be killed in fire; She on the other hand was the least bit interested; she was not even listening until the word ‘ fire ‘ caught her attention.
Her face was still covered with her hair; Tyler was being restless with her smell but he pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind.
She took a deep breath before a shiver passed down her spine; the cool weather was making it difficult for her but calmed herself.
The fire was bought as she smirked; this was her chance; She was pushed into the fire by the guards.
“ Idiots, “ She murmured under her breath before managing herself, She looked straight at the guards and pushed them towards the fire, and ran away before Anyone could understand anything.
Zia’s P. O. V.
Why are we so afraid to accept a possibility? The idiot could not even understand fire does not affect me. In fact, it makes me powerful.
My heart is beating so fast; my throat is filled with so many emotions as if I am running away from someone who is mine.
I have crossed the Forest; none of them came to catch me. Now that is weird.
I looked around as I limped towards the road; it is almost night; I need to be safe somewhere before trying to steal that resistance stone again.
*I need it at any cost,
Any cost but not my life.*
It was still drawn when I came across a guy with a vehicle; maybe I should ask for help. I need some time to heal before I finish my work.
But it is not safe.
My inner self said to me; right, I cannot trust anyone. Maybe he is a vampire too. What if this is a trap? That fucking Vampire king is behind me.
Throwing my idea of asking for help from that guy into the imaginary dustbin of my mind; I started walking in the other direction. My arm is still not healed; It was broken; it will heal but only after some time. This cold weather is not good for me.
Looks like I have to spend the night walking.
I felt as if someone was watching me, I turned around but the only thing I could see was darkness and trees in the moonlight. There was no one around.
I tried to smell but I could not.
Starting to walk again I felt really faint footsteps; I could not hear them but I could feel them. Before I could look behind I felt something on my neck. I touched my neck as I felt something like liquid.
It cannot be bleed Vampires don’t bleed, or do they?
In a few seconds, everything turned blank.
Tyler’s P. O. V.
“ Catch that bitch! “ I heard James say to the guards as we both stood up; this prisoner girl has already crossed the limits.
“ let’s go kill her, “ I said to James before we stormed out of the place.
“ go to the north, I’ll go south, “ he nodded at me before he ran in the north direction. I was about to walk in the south direction but the moonlight fell on me. I turned my head in the west direction.
I do not know why but I ran in the west direction; I tried to smell her around, her smell was like sand and rose. An interesting combination but this is not the time to appreciate how good she smells.
I heard some footsteps; it could be a human but it could be that prisoner vampire too.
That was when I saw her walking on the silent road; she looked at the moon; her face was away from me but the same feeling returned.
The restlessness; the weird ache in the coldness of the night made me crave her; kill her.
She looked behind as if feeling my eyes but I was quiet and way too away from her for her to see me. It was clear she could not hear me but then I heard someone else.
Becoming alert all of sudden I looked around but till then I saw someone in the black hoodie injecting something into her. I ran towards them but as if the person vanished in thin air.
Climbing on a tree; I looked around in the darkness of the night.
*No one takes my prey away from me*
There I stopped it; it was a wolf.
I do not know what came over me, My feet carried me to them as I came in front of the wolf; “ give her to me, “ I said in a cold voice.
I cannot kill this wolf.
Soon the person took the shape of a human; umm-hmm it was a werewolf!
“ Give her to me, “ I said again. The prisoner girl was in his arms; her face was towards that werewolf’s human form.
Why am I longing to see her face?
I could not help but think; I cannot kill this werewolf; the treaty will be broken then another war will start between the werewolves and the vampires of the entire earth.
The werewolf looked at me; he looked as if he was ready to kill me and why not.
Werewolf and Vampires don’t get along well at all.
We are enemies.
Always have been.
Always will be.
“ I can sell her to you, “ He said as he kept her on the ground.
“ a fucking rogue, “ I said.
“ only if I could kill you for sealing my prey, “ I said before throwing the platinum card at him.
“ 1827, “ in the blink of an idea the wolf walked away from there.
I could not hold the urge to look at her face anymore.
I sat on my knees before I slowly touched her hand but flinched back when I felt the heat radiating off her.
“ She’s a human, “ I took a deep breath before I slowly removed the hair off her face only to get the biggest shock of my life.
