Desmond and I checked into a hotel, apparently my mother tried seducing him, she would do anything to make me unhappy- but Desmond compelled her to leave him alone. But then he figured it would be safer for us to be in a hotel room, so that what we're doing. I haven't told him anything that my Real mother- amalicitae did.Desmond and I feel bad for leaving everyone with big lipped b***h, but maybe there could be somehow a way we could legally get her arrested, a paper trail she forgot to pick up.
I'm hoping Desmond and I can relax, like I hoped when we went to the airport. bUt when we get on the phone with my Mom, nothing is going to be calm anymore. Desmond and I carry our things and head to the room; we got the 'lovers suit' can't wait to see what is in store. We open the door and open it to a beautiful prepared hotel room, everything is...open; not a door in sight. I would hate to be the maid that cleans up this room... if you know what I mean. We look around, the bed is rounded, the hot tub right next to the bed, but what caught my attention was the rounded mirror above the bed- I started turning red.
"That's going to be fun." Desmond laughs. He picks me up and lays me down on the bed. He licks my neck then sucking on it bringing my blood to the surface,
"My gosh desmond, your gonna give me a hickey." I laugh. But that's what his intention was, can vampires get hickeys?
*Ringing* Desmond grunts and rolls his eyes, he grabs his cellphone from his pants pockets, he looks at me then answers it,
"This is Desmond." He walks away and sits on the couch, I plop on it, right next to him. Desmond puts his phone on speaker; it Gabe. Gabe starts going over the details that I shared with my Mom and her with me, desmond has his concerned face on, but we haven't even reached the part about me. Gabe starts talking about Desmond asking me for my hand, then Desmond gets all flustered. But then the mood got all serious, gabe touches on the bood red moon, that's when Desmond asks the important question,
"When is the blood red moon?" Desmond asks, this is the moment desmonds going to go insane, he's going to do everything to keep me protected.
"That's the thing Desmond, it could start whenever..." Desmond looks at me, but I point to the phone,
"What does that mean?"
"Desmond, it isn;t as easy as it was when he destroyed your entire bloodline, the witches won't agree for a simple favor, it takes a lot of-"
"Get to the point Gabe." I tell him.
"Uh, Yes Alannah. Jeremy needs the blood of a true blood daughter, and a matanica." I was shocked to hear the last part- I am not a matanica anymore, but Mom didn't say anything of that nature.I look over at desmond, his face blank.
"Desmond, take me off speaker phone." Gabe says, I'm confused now, what could that be about, Gabe is smart, he turns on the sink where he is, now I can't hear him- not past the static. I put my hands together fidgeting with my knuckle while Desmond and Gabe talk.
I slump back into the couch, I feel tired but I can't sleep, I can't face him.
...**...
Desmond grabs my wrist, he grabs a needle from his pocket and slams it into my vein.
"OW!" I yelp.
"What the hell was that for?" I rub the wrist that just got attacked.
"Jeremy has been tracking us with our birthmarks, he has a witch on his side, this solution blocks any power from using that." Desmond pushes against his skin poking himself with the solution. It's almost 6:00pm and I'm hella bored. Desmond is pacing from one end of the room to the other, he's debating something, so I've decided to watch him.
"get dressed." Desmond says while finally stopped. I open my eyes wide in excitement- I must have dozed off, I don't remember it being this dark; so the solution worked? I sit up, I rub my tired eyes to try and wake up.
"In what?"
"Something casual, but something that can get dirty." Desmond says slipping on a black shirt, taking his pale blue jeans off, while putting on black holy ones. I open my suitcase, I grab a plaid skirt- tight fitting- and put that on. I match it up with a white tank top and black leather jacket, I grab a black pair of heels and slip into them, I turn around to face Desmond-
"-absolutley not. Put on some sweat pants and a baggie hoodie- in fact wear mine." He throws me his very oversized hood, I was about to retort when an Idea popped into my head. I take everything off- everything. Get some new undergarments on following spandex. I slip the hoodie on and wear some Adidas.
"How about this?" Desmond shakes his head.
"Okay, babe. I know you're trying to protect me and my image, but I'm not going to be dressed like a potato sack. What I'm going to dress in next, is final kay?" My patience was tested. I grab a thing of clothing and bring it into the doorless bathroom. I put on the clothes, very simple, a pair of black jeans, and a red tank top with the same black leather jacket. I pair it with a different pair of Adidas and walk out of the bathroom,
"is this better?" Desmond grabs my wrist and walks out of the hotel room. I was about to say something about my purse but desmond, he doesn't want to wait any longer, he's afraid he'll change his mind, on what though. Desmond was sweating when he put me inside a taxi- him following me.
We pull up in a parking lot of a bar, it's way out of town, about two hours.
"desmond what are we-" Desmonds eyes are glowing red, nearly scared me half to death... which is impossible because I am dead. Desmond tips the guy and takes me out of the car, but I pull him into me,
"Desmond what the hell!" His eyes stop glowing, his face growing sad, I hold his face in my hands,
"What's going on?" He turns away,
"I don't want you too, but Gabe says this is the only way I can protect you-" I shake my head in confusion, telling him I don't understand. He places his pointer finger and thumb on the bridge of his nose.
"Alannah, you have to drink human blood. If you don't You'll be to weak to handle yourself against Jeremy, okay. I said it," I felt excited, I actually get to expierence what being a vampire is like, now I know why we came to a bar- wait for someone to get so drunk, (in case I kill someone) it won't be a murder just alcohol poisoning. I pull his face close to mine and peck his lips.
"Desmond, i'm fine okay. I appreciate you being worried but I'd rather be doing this with you than anyone else." I smile. Desmond smiles and pulls me into the club, he looks into the bouncers eyes-
"Let us in." Desmonds been here before hasn't he? I'm sure of it, the bouncer unclips the belt and lets us in, everyone else throws a fit that we were let in. I look around, so many people.
"Alannah, I don't want you to lose control. But if you do, pick someone whose really drunk-" As desmond says that my attention was drawn to the bar, a woman is boy trapped, she was talking with the boy on her right, when the boy on the left distracted her- that's when I see the boy on the right drop a pill in her drink, when she looks back over she grabs her drink. f*****g d**k! I run quickly to the man, I slap the drink from the woman, grabbing the man who dropped the pill in her drink by the ear and dragging him into the ally- I throw him about 10 ft from me,
"You f*****g prick!" I walk quickly to him before he gets up, I hear desmond opening the door into the ally, running to me, my eyes are glowing.
"Alannah! stop!" He grabs my hand, stepping in front of me, brushing the hair in my face behind my ear,
"Desmond, did you see what he did? Why are you trying to stop me,"
"You're not strong enough to compel him to forget- I'll compel him to take off while you go inside and wait for me."
...**...
I wait for desmond inside, when I smell blood, I can feel my gums throbbing, my eyes glowing."
"Did you see that hot guy?" A drunk woman says,
"Ohmergood, I haven seen somesbody cute like thaat in a v long time." The girl slurs, I know there talking about desmond, but I notice one of the girls had already been bitten by a vampire, I thought desmond said to wait?
"Alannah, I thought I said to wait," Desmond looks at me with a raised eyebrow.
"I didn't do anything yet."
