I woke with an intense pain on my head. It's almost unbearable and even my hands are shaking. My head's just so painful.
I remembered what happened. Those vampires suddenly became murderous. I don't know what happened and why they suddenly acted like that, but one things for sure, I can't trust them.
When I opened my eyes, adrenaline rushes and I immediately ready myself. They're all here looking at me. Gone was their murderous look and they're just looking at me with worries.
Do they think that they can gain my trust again? I was a fool once, but I'll make sure it won't be twice. But how can I escape when they're so powerful. They are not like any other vampires I've encountered.
Those ordinary vampires have fangs, quite a strength, and blood lust, but these bloodsucking leeches were utmost to their kind. They are immortals and much more capable.
" Selene, are you okay? " Eury approached me and was about to touch me but I withraw my hands.
" Don't touch me, vampire. " I utter emphatically.
" What's wrong, Selene? " Odin asks with my sudden attitude.
" What's wrong? You almost killed me! " I exclaimed.
These vampires are smart. They'll make you believe that they're different from others and when you finally fall into their trap, that's when they'll start devouring you.
" Kill you? Why should we kill you? " Alaric asks. I can say they're offended in what I've said.
" Are you kidding me?! How would I know? " I exclaimed.
" Maybe she's having hallucinations. " Lucian suddenly said that made us all silent.
Hallucinations? I don't know, but why the heck would I be hallucinating?
After what I've seen, I just can't trust them anymore. I'm pretty sure it wasn't just a hallucination. It's real. I even felt the tension. I've never been afraid like that all my life. It's real. It's so real.
I really need to get out of here. I don't know. I'm never been afraid to die, just now.
" Creed. " I heard Lucian said.
" Whose Creed? " Alaric ask.
" My brother. " I suddenly said.
I was surprised when I suddenly said those words. I don't know who that Creed is, and I don't know why did I said that. Even them, were confused.
I flinch when I suddenly felt a bang on my head. It's so painful. I feel like my head's breaking or exploding. I was about to fall when Alaric catches me and help me lay on the bed.
I'm like a flower that shrinks. " Argh.....!" The pain is just so terrible and it's so unbearable. I heard their conversation figuring out what to do.
" Selene, just wait, they'll find a way. " Eury said and caresses my hair. Somehow, I felt his care. It didn't lessen the pain, but it gives me assurance. " You can squeeze my hand if you want. You don't need to hold back, I can handle it. After all, I'm a grown up now. " He chuckles, maybe to lighten the mood, but it didn't.
I reached for his hand I tightly grip on it. Then a face flashes on my mind. He's got an almost perfect features and body. In his arms, he's holding a girl, a little girl. The little girl's smiling while looking at him and so is he. He kept on staring at the girl when slowly, his gaze shifted on me. I was taken back, his stares are so dangerous and evil. His lips formed into a murderous grin. With an inhuman speed, he's already in front of me, then everything went bloody red.
I woke up with a great sensation that's caused by something that arose inside me. I found myself walking in the garden with full of roses. The scent is like hypnotizing me and seems like waking my greatest and deepest desire.
I kept on walking as the roses guided me, on my way to him. There's a man standing in front of me and his hands are stretched out to me, like he's asking me to come. I don't know him, but I can't resist him either. When I looked at his face, I felt a different kind of emotion inside me, and it doesn't feel foerign. It's nostalgic.
He smiled and I realized that it was him. The man whose holding a little girl. I can't stop myself and just kept on walking towards him.
I unconsciously stopped when his hand and I were just an inch away.
I can't look at anything, but him. He trapped me with his stares. " Selene." He said in a very calming tone.
Upon hearing his voice, I felt something familiar. Like he himself is so familiar. This seems like a reunion. A most awaited reunion.
Suddenly, the surrounding turns bloody red, nothing but red. Then floods of blood are all around. I don't know, but I'm just so scared right now. My knees are getting weak and my hands are shaking so bad. I'm trembling.
I kept on stepping backwards as the blood approproaches, until I bump into something—someone. When I looked at him, I can't recognize him anymore.
The right portion of his face has no skin that I can see what's beneath it. He looks so scary. He grinned. "...finally!"
His voice echoed in my head. I felt like screaming, but I don't want to. I'm just standing like a statue. My heart beats rapidly, I can't breathe. Feels like someone's choking me in the cruelest way.
I jump out of bed when I opened my eyes. It was a just a dream? No, I'm sure it's not. I can't say if it's true, but I know it's not just a dream. Not just.
I look at my surroundings, I'm all alone in the same room. Now that I remembered what the guy looked like, I ain't scared. I'm curious.
Who is he? Why am I dreaming of him? I'm pretty sure that I've already met or just saw him. Our minds can't generate characters on their own in our dreams, so I must've knew him.
I hurriedly took a bath and wore the white dress placed on the bed. It fits me well, I can say.
I kept on walking like an endless hallways and opened countless of hallways I've encountered. I opened another door and eventually regretted it.
It's Damon's room.
He's half naked with his headphones on. He only got his towel covering half of his body, displaying his perfectly shaped body. His purple eyes are staring at me, emotionless. Drops of water from his hair are falling right into his shoulders, going down to his chest. I gulp.
Damn this purple vamp!
