*******************************
I must have cried for hours as I let everything that had happened in the last year combined with what happened with Brecclan flood through me. I was exhausted. I was struggling mentally and didn't know what to do about it.
Niko has kept coming and lying with me in the bed that I refuse to leave. For 3 days I had stayed tucked down beneath the blankets in my own little den. I felt as if my bond had broken from Brecclan's rejection. Though he hadn't said the word his actions were enough. He didn't want me!
Niko and Luca tried desperately to get me to eat but I couldn't stomach food. The thought of eating made me sick and I just didn't have the energy. I hadn't even bathed. Not caring how I smelt or looked. What did it matter?
Now it had been four days and I still wallowed in my misery, in the rejection. The light that peeped through the curtains was to bright so I scooted down inside the blankets were there was complete darkness. Like the whole left by Brecclan.
I heard the door open to the bedroom and I heard a growl as footsteps marched toward me and someone yanked the blankets off top of me taking my safe place away.
"Give them back!" I snapped trying to drag the covers back over my head.
"No! I have had enough of this. Come on your taking a shower." Luca grabbed me.
I didn't want to go but I was to weak to fight him, so I allowed him to carry me into the bathroom. It wasn't until he sat me down and tried to undress me that my anger kicked in.
I wouldn't allow another one of them to use me and then reject me.
I shoved at Luca trying to get his hand off me.
"Don't f*****g touch me!" I screamed loudly. Luca ignored me and began tearing my clothes off.
I see red!
I began fighting him raining blow for blow against his hard chest but it was useless as it felt like I was punching steel.
"Stop this nonsense, Aubrette!" Luca growled wrapping his arms around me and trapping me to his chest.
I fought like hell but somehow h manage to get me down to my underwear. Luca held on to me and turned on the water in the shower. Removing his shirt he drug me in the shower still in his basketball shorts.
I gasped as the water was a shock to my system. Luca tried to start washing me and the soap allowed me to escape his arms. I tried to run out of the shower but he jerked me back and slid to the floor.
Luca wrapped his arms around me and his legs trapped mine. I couldn't move.
"Stop!" Luca growled.
"You won't use me like Brecclan did. I won't allow it. Just reject me Luca. Get it over with." I screamed a tears streamed down my face.
Luca twisted me around in his arms and grabbed the sides of my head with his hands keeping my fave directly in front of his. My legs were wrapped around his torso and I was again trapped.
"I want you! I will never reject you. You are mine!" Luca growled.
Before I realized what was happening Luca moved my hair that stuck to my skin from the water and bit down on my marking spot on top of Niko's mark. I screamed as his fangs bit through the tender tissue and kept going until he hit bone. As his toungue lapped up my blood the pain turned to pleasure.
I felt his emotions pour through me. I felt his love and want for me. How badly he had wanted to mate with me and mark me but hadn't wanted to push me. I felt the regret for the things they had done and the angry he held toward Brecclan at the moment.
The bond finally snapped into place and then I was suck into the dark recesses of his mind.
I heard Luca through the darkness but he sounded as if he was far away in a tunnel.
"It's okay Aubrette! Your the keeper of our memories. You will be okay. I'm right here." Luca called to me.
My vision returned but I was full clothed standing on a sidewalk.
People walked past at a brisk pace eager to get where they were going. I instantly noticed Niko walking along the sidewalk.
My legs seemed to move on their own following close behind him. His fingers with innerlaced with the woman's at his side. They where wearing clothes that appeared to be from the 60's. Luca wore bell bottoms and a T-shirt with MTV wrote across it. His blue hair was longer and his face had more color.
As he walked the woman up a set up steps to the front door of a house I could see the happiness in his eyes. The woman was beautiful. She had strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes. She wore short shorts, knee high socks and marry Janes. Her hair was feathered around her face and curled back.
Jealousy filled me as Luca bent down and kissed her passionately. She gripped his back tightly and his hands went to her bottom pulling her against him. She easily pushed him away and smiled,
"I'm sorry Luca. You know I'm saving myself for marriage." She laughed.
"Then let's go get married. I love you Angela and I need you." He whispered as his forehead pressed against hers.
"When you show me you can wait for my body, then it's all yours. Until then Luca, your hand will be your wife." She laughed and smiled shaking his head.
"Can I at least steal one more kiss?" He asked her and she obliged.
The scene in front of me faded and another appeared in it's place. I was in a bedroom. There was a Luca in a suit and a the woman who he had called Angela, in a wedding dress .
They kissed passionately. I knew from Luca had finally married the woman from the steps. A part of me was happy for him but my bond was insanely jealous.
The scene again began to fade as he laid the woman on the bed to make love to her.
Another scene formed. I was in a living room. Two chairs sat in the open area behind the couch. Luca and the woman were tied to the chairs.
The woman's faced was streaked with black tears from her mascara. She had duct tape over her mouth. Luca struggled against his restraints.
"It's sad really!" A man entered carrying a cane though he didn't look to actually need it.
"Were you like me, you could break those restraints easily." The man laughed.
He walked over to Luca's wife and pushed her hair off her shoulder before grasping her chin and turning her face so that her neck was exposed. Luca's muffled screams filled the room as he cursed and pleaded with the man. The man completely ignored Luca and began to feed on his wife.
Once he had bit her he released her restraints and removed the duct tape from her mouth. Only she didn't run from him. She clasped on to him. I knew that feeling all to well. The venom had her craving him. willing to do anything to have him.
The man made sure Luca watched as his wife ravaged another man in front of him. Luca's face was now streaked with tears as he struggled.
His wife was removing her clothes and the man pushed her against the wall still feeding on her. He pushed into her and pumped into he over and over as Luca screamed from his chair. He was still feeding from her and I knew at this point he had taken way to much blood.
Soon the woman stopped moving but the man didn't stop pumping into her until he finished. He finally pulled back and laid he limp body on the floor. He pulled his pants up and turned to Niko.
"Pity! She was a good f**k!"Luca was trying his best to lunge at the man. He laughs loudly and walked over to Luca.
"With the rage and hatred I have created in you, you will make an amazing Vampiric Faerie. I only hope you survive the change." The man growled before bending down and biting Luca.
This time he didn't feed long and pulled away. Luca gazed up at him with lust filled eyes. The man removed the duct tape from Luca's mouth. He used his sharp fingernail to cut his wrist and fed it to Luca. Luca moaned as he grasp the man's wrist pushing it to his mouth drinking his blood.
"I'll be back tomorrow Luca! Don't go outside! Don't contact anyone." The man looked in Luca's eyes using compulsion to control him. Luca nodded and the man removed his wrist from Luca's grasp.
"Patients. I will feed you again tomorrow. You may want to get some rest. Once the change sets in the pain will be unbearable and you'll get no rest." The man advised him while he undid all his restraints, releasing him completely.
The man began walking to the door but turned and looked at Luca. "Oh and Luca! No matter how much you want to, you'll never try to harm me mentally or physically!" The man used compulsion once more and Luca nodded in response still in a daze.
The scene faded and once again another formed in it's place. I was still in Lucas house but Luca was running back and forth through the house screaming in agony. He pulled at his hair and scratched at his body.
The woman, his wife, her body still lay in the floor but now covered by a white sheet and flower petals were scatted around her. Luca couldn't leave the house to bury her so he had his own ceremony. The room smelt of death because of her decaying body.
Luca fell to the ground screaming in pain and holding his stomach. The door opened an the man entered with two other men. The moved like they where floating across the floor. The men went to Luca's wife and picked her up carrying her to the back door. Luca looked up wide eyed.
"Were are you taking here?" Luca growled.
"Relax Son! They are burying her body in the backyard." Thean told Luca
He walked over to Luca and bent down using a knife to slit his wrist once more. He fed Luca and I watched as Luca's fangs extended and plunged in the man's cut. Luca fed hungrily growling as he drunk the man's blood.
Suddenly the man stiffened and grunted. Luca smiled and fear filled me from the look in Luca's eyes. The man fell back with a silver dagger sticking from his heart. Luca laughed and grabbed the man's hand.
"You will give me your strength and your power." Luca used compulsion on his dying body.
Luca's back arched as the man's magic and strength flowed though him. He had somehow broke the man's command from the day before and killed him.
The other men entered the room and Luca was on them both in a flash,
"Please," one man begged. "Please don't kill me. I'll do anything. Anything you want.
I watched horrified as Luca turns his attention to the other man and repeated the same thing.
"You will give me your magic and power." I watched as a white light erupted from the man and traveled inside Luca. Once the light died out Luca began to feed from him and then broke his neck.
Luca was covered in blood. It ran down his mouth and was spattered on his shirt. He turned to the last remaining man alive.
"Go! Tell the vampiric fae and vampire colonies that their king is dead and they now have a new king. I anyone refuses to follow me, kill them. And bring me dinner tonight. I won't be seen out in the streets picking off people. No women or children. Now go before I change my mind." He growled at the man and the man nodded and scurried off.
Luca was the vampire king?
I shook my head trying to leave this memory. I didn't like it at all. This was not the Luca that I knew. This was pure evil, hatred, and revenge. Luca had snapped. What had brought him back down to earth and made him who he was today?
Finally, the darkness envelopes me removing me from Luca's mind and I breathed a sigh of relief welcoming it this time.
