Why did it have to be you

Tingles : Jacolby

I don't know what it is about her but she feels familiar. Her rainbow hair was beautiful and even though it looked great on her it didn't seem to suit her. But then again from the previous photos of her on her phone with long red hair that didn't seem to suit her either but something still seemed so familiar about her. My phone buzzed in my pocket as I walked down the hall towards her cell. "Yeah?." I asked as I answered the call. "Hey man there's something going on with the money transfer the guys in the accident are starting to complain." What the hell man. Can't anyone do anything right? I thought to myself. "Jake? You still there man?" Markos asked from the other end of the call. "Just kill them. They're humans so we have every right at this point thanks to the wolves." With that I hung up. I can't stand the wolves but this is business. Still he remembers the young girl with her raven hair and her silvery blue eyes that never left his mind. "I will find you and I will make you my queen." I thought aloud to myself. I then pulled out the old piece of notebook paper she had written the note on. I never lost it and I never will. Slowly I walked to Addison Nights cell door and moved the view blocker ever so quietly and peered in at her sleeping form. She truly was beautiful even with all the new scars marring her body. She healed fast a major sign of her being a werewolf. Though her speed of healing is only seen in royalty with the first alpha kings lineage. So it was true that this girl was the future queen of the werewolves. Well at least before we took her and made it look like she was dead. I had never seen the princess before yesterday when we picked her up but I had always heard stories about how beautiful she was and that when in the academy all the men wanted to be her mate but she wouldn't even glance their way. They always said she was stuck up and acted like she was to good for them. I could feel myself chuckling to myself. This girl does not scream prude but maybe she is. Who knows. But I do know that I won't let the guys have at her. She's a werewolf which means that mating before having found their mate can be excruciatingly painful for the female but if mated and she sleeps with another it won't hurt for her but rather her mate. I shuddered. To think that you could feel that kind of pain all because your mate decided to do something wrong while you stayed home and did nothing just makes me angry. It feels almost like us vampires got the better end of the stick since having no mate allows us to be with whomever we desire without consequences. My eyes roamed he body. She didn't seem to mind if people were to look at her otherwise why wear outfits that are so revealing. Her top was an all black tank with a low cut v neck revealing the tops of her ample breasts and was short enough to show off her pale flat stomach. Her shorts were also black and very short almost showing off her cute ass. Her legs are covered with black nylons and end at her booted feet. She didn't look much like a princess but rather the bad girl from all the stories. Slowly she rolled over and I could see that she was awake but her face was covered in tears. When I saw that my heart broke a little inside. She must feel so horrible knowing that her family wanted her out of the picture to allow their youngest daughter the position of future Luna Queen of the wolves. I wonder what  might be so great about this younger sister that their parents would rather have her as their queen than Addison. From what I have seen of the younger sister she is a pompous spoiled brat with an ice cold heart. I don't see how that girl will make a good queen let a lone a great one. Maybe they see a side of her I couldn't when she attended last years ball with her parents. I never thought her parents would allow her to attend seeing as she was only 14. Her sister though is already 16 and I suppose she still has yet to find her mate otherwise he would have known she wasn't dead and would have come to find her. Her soft grey eyes stared at the ceiling seemingly lost in her own space. "I know you are watching me." She announced. "I can feel your eyes on me. You just couldn't stay away could you." I really couldn't stay away from her after I left her here in her room I couldn't help but pace in the hallway near her door for hours until I finally had to sleep. "I know you felt the tingles. The bond is strong even though we don't know each other very well." She was basically whispering but I could hear every word. I couldn't even stop myself from listening to her soft voice as she lay there in the bed never even looking at me. "I don't know what you're talking about." I lied. " I just came to let you know that breakfast will be brought to you shortly." With that I slammed the viewer shut and stormed off. I walk away from that hallway and up the stairs out of the basement. I'm nervous to leave her alone with these men but I have my own responsibilities to take care of. I walk into the living room to see Markos and Spencer playing cards on the coffee table. "Do not f*****g touch her or I swear to God I'll kill you both myself!" I hiss at them. "Geez man I didn't know you cared that much." Spencer retorted. "I don't care about her but I do care about her mate possibly being hurt and wanting to find her so don't f*****g touch her!" I then walk out of the small house under the small dark clouds over head, l walk over to my truck, a grey Toyota Tacoma and open the driver door and climb in. Once inside my truck I start her up and drive down the long narrow drive way to the street. I turn right and drive a few miles before I make it back to the city. The clouds are thicker here. No sun light can enter through the thick black clouds. I drive for a bit until I reach the castle gates and the guard let's me through, opening the gates. I get to the front, hop out of my truck and give the keys to the valet. I take my time as i walk up the grande staircase and through the large double doors. "Hello young master may I get you a drink?" The old butler Mr. Evan's asked. His grey hair was thinning and his wrinkled skin was pale and ashen. "No thank you Mr. Evan's I'm quite alright." I told the old man.  I walked into the den to find my father and his gold digging third wife sitting on the couch looking over the cities finances together. "Hello Father how are you doing this evening?" I asked. His wife glared at me for not acknowledging her presence. "And hello to you too boy." She said in a stern manner knowing damn well I hate being called boy. I still ignored her comment as my father looked up from his documents and gave me a small smile. "Hello darkness of my heart." My father always used this endearment with me and though usually used for females I let him knowing it was only because I resemble my mother so much. My mother was his first wife having died of complications with her heart my father was never the same but remarried a few years later. His second wife was nice and I got on well with her but as it turns out she had another man on the side and became pregnant with his child while claiming it to be my fathers. I was the one who caught them in the act and instantly told my father who allowed her child to be born before he executed both her and her lover, leaving the child an orphan. Then only 2 months later he married this gold digging w***e Magdila; who I'm sure has a few pieces on the side but is very smart about how she hides them. "How are you today dad?" I ask. "I'm doing much better now. I didn't get to see you yesterday but I know your are almost 17 now and I just wanted to make sure you were okay. I know you don't have anyone that you are seeing but I hope that for your sake you find someone." Sometimes dad can push to much for me to get a girlfriend. "You know your mother and I may not be werewolves but we always had the thought that we were made for each other. She was my other half." Tears began to form in my fathers eyes as he explained. "When we had you I knew that we were forever a family and there is not a single day that I do not miss your mother." With that Magdila looked pissed. I wanted to laugh out loud at her irritated expression as she hears my father brush their marriage a side for a woman who died years ago. "I know dad but I just haven't found that special one but I feel that she is just around the corner. I will never give up in finding her dad but I also won't give up on my life in pursuit of her." With that I turned on my heels and walked out of the den. I trudge my way up the stairs and to my room. My room is large with a flat screen t.v on one side and a large hand filled mattress on the other with an all black duvet and pillows. It's simple but I like it. I walk up to the side and lay down on my back with my feet still on the floor because I have a strict no shoes on the bed policy. I pull out the note once more and continue to reread it. I still miss her every day and I intend to find her but until I do I will always remain loyal. 

After rereading the letter a final time I place it in my bedside table and kick my shoes off. I then stand up walk to my full sized bathroom and strip off my clothes. I stand and stare at myself in the mirror. Gone was the wonder that once filled my sky blue eyes leaving behind the windows to my soul. My ash blonde hair a floppy mess atop my head and my pale skin with freckles littering only a few places on my body. I then look at the scar atop my brow one received from the girl all those years ago when we first met. I can still remember that day as if it were just yesterday. I still remember her pale blue night gown and the way it made her hair have an almost bluish tint and the way her smile lit up the night sky as if the sun had come early. She had hit me out of fear because I had followed her around my town hoping to get to meet her but when she saw me she bolted for the near by woods but what she didn't know was that I am a vampire so it wasn't hard to track her or to run with her if I'd wanted to. She ran all the way to our cities half way point which was a huge meadow past the City of Darkness' clouds. I was nervous at first to follow her past the clouds even at night because i had never left the city before but I just had to meet her. Then I saw her look up. The night sky was littered with stars and the view amazed me. There was no light or clouds that could block the shine and it was the most amazing thing I had ever seen besides her. I didn't even notice I was walking until I came up right behind her. She didn't notice me at first but then I spoke. "The stars are so-" she punched me in the face... hard. I fell to the ground and when I looked up she was standing above me just watching me with wonder evident in her soft silvery blue eyes. "Are you okay?" She asked me slowly. "Yes but why did you hit me?" I questioned her. She paused while she stared at me. "You had startled me when you spoke. I did not realize you had followed me this far." Was her response. I put my hand up to ask for her help standing since i was still a little dizzy from the punch but she didn't take it. Instead she sat next to me in the tall grass and eyed my head where she hit me. "You are bleeding. Let me have a look at it." She lightly moved my hand away from the wound and placed her hand upon it. What she did next just made me believe she was crazy. She placed 2 fingers over my cut and placed her other hand on the back of my head holding me in place and before I could stop her she pressed her 2 fingers hard on to my cut. I yelped and tried to pull away but she was stronger than I anticipated  and held tight. "Hold still i'm just trying to apply pressure to stop the bleeding. Head wounds bleed a lot so I have to stop it now before you faint from blood loss you idiot." She practically screamed at me. Though it hurt to allow her to press my wound i stopped fighting her knowing she was right. After a few minutes she released my head which had stopped bleeding and just sat there staring at me. "You have the most amazing eyes. They're like the morning sky just before the clock strikes noon." I blushed at her words. "Th...thank you." I mumbled to her. She gave me a brilliant smile and looked up at the stars again. I studied her for moment. Her long raven hair pooled around her as the tips brushed the ground where she sat and her pale skin resembled that of a vampire. She looked at me again and saw her soft silvery blue eyes full of amazement as she looked into my sky blue eyes. At this moment I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her and only ever her. 

I stop looking at myself in the mirror and climb into the shower to try to wash away my thoughts. I wash my hair and scrub my body with my dove bar soap and rinse off under the water. Once finished I turn of the water and grab my towel to dry off. Once dried I put on my deodorant and a pair of basketball shorts before climbing into bed. As I drift off into a light sleep I dream of rainbow hair and soft grey eyes.
