I heard voices but they were only echoes in my mind and for a brief moment I had thought that I was going crazy. Memories flashed before my eyes. Of Marcus and I, locked in the cells of that lab. Doctors doing their rounds and scientists not far, jotting down our results in charts that were unable to be seen. The moment Marcus was able to escape was they day began to loathe him for everything that he was. The friendship that we had formed was now gone and in its' very place was a sense of revenge. It was more of a need than a feeling. Marcus had abandoned me and that was enough to never want to see him alive. Fate on the other hand, had its' course and when he showed up at the castle that night, he saw the opportunity. The chance to exact that need.
I heard myself grunt at the thought and by the time I fully came to focus, he realized that there were more than two guards dragging his dead weight down into the dungeons and of course he was too weak to do anything. The gu
I felt the sun wan slowly behind the fabric of the darkened curtains as I laid underneath the satin sheet on my bed. My head rested on the pillow while my arm rested under my neck. I rolled over and stared at the ceiling while my thoughts were at war with what to do about the plan to end this charade with Gabriel. I hated the idea of everyone that I was close to get hurt and being holed up like animals when the reality was that we had done nothing wrong. Sarene had been forced to make the decision that very day because Gabriel sought out revenge for what had happened at the labs. The truth was this, I was scared. Scared of going into that place where the scientists had created us. The first line of vampires that had existed. Me and Gabriel and possibly more who had died trying. It made me wonder if Sarene and her parents were apart of what they were doing.The urge to ask her was strong but the Remus pack had a close eye on us the whole time but we also had access to th
Blake returned a few minutes later, after I had instructed that he'd scout the area. His dark hair was disheveled from the wind and his eyes glowed softly under the fire's embers and his cloths seemed off, as though he had gotten into war with some type of animal but ad I sat on the sofa, checking and double checking to make certain that there was no errors in the map that I had hidden in my closet, was correct, his voice rumbled over my thoughts. "It is clear, Marcus. I made sure that nothing was on that route."I took a breath and folded the map that had been resting lightly in my lap and placed it on the coffee table sitting before me. "Good." I said in all bit a whisper. "Now all we need to do I wait for the girls and head toward town to get everything else from the storage space.""Are you certain you want to do this? Blake asked, a hint of concern rose in his voice. "Who knows how many men Gabriel has in store for us.""I am. Gabriel has this grudge agains
An hour had passed and we were already on our way to the road that we spoke of. The thoughts that constantly raced through my thoughts had made me uneasy.Gabriel was once my friend, one that had kept me sane in my time at the labs. The place that those cruel scientists decided to create the very first race of vampires as far as I knew of anyway. There were more of us than I had envisioned honestly. It made me think about whether or not I was the first or those bastards had lied to our faces. What more did they keep from us? From me that I should of known about before? Was Sarene and her parents the first race?I shook my head and turned my focus to reality. As I zipped through the trees and underbrush of the of forest, I looked up at the sky, noticing how bright the stars had gotten alongside the moon, to which it was full. A group of clouds had formed to cover a portion of the moon, causing a mystery vibe from above. I heard Emery's voice loud
Sarene had been in the dining hall awaiting for the council when she heard the massive explosion and while she attempted to find cover, she shouted to a number of her gaurds and ordered them to check the dungeons where Gabriel was being kept. The fear that Gabriel somehow managed to lure one of the human gaurds to do his bidding was evidant within her and she quickly got to her feet. A group of gaurds came in, their armor shined beneath the moonlight while a loof of concerned formed on their faces. "What's going on?" Sarene asked. "Did you sweep the cells to make sure that he didn't escape?" Daryl the head command of the gaurd elite spoke. "We did and found that his cell is empty." Sarene’s face went paler than normal and as she took a breath she spoke with a calm tone, "We need to find him before he gets too far. Take your men and sweep the perimeters and the outskirts of the castle." Darly bowed, "As you wish your majest." He looked to his men and sai
"Where would we want to start looking?" Blake had asked me once we left Sarene's Council room. "Gabriel isn't just going to be waiting around for us to catch him." "Given his state of mind at this very moment," Marcus said in return to Blake's comment, "He isn't really the Flash. Moments before the explosion, Sarene had linked me stating that she had drugged him on order to get him in the dungeons. His speed isn't the greatest and what she had given him will last at least a few hours." A few hours isn't going to cut the deadline. Who knows what he has in mind after it wears off." Nora piped in. "We need to find him and end this before he exposes our race of extistence." "I'd rather die than let that ever occur," Marcus replied. "I understand from his perspective that Gabriel wants revenge over an incident that happened centuries ago." Marcus' gaze went to me as he spoke and I felt as though he was trying to tell somethig silently but I didn't know what. I gave him a small shrug and
Emery's P.O.V Nobody said that being a vampire wasn't easy. I thought to myself as I sat on a rock overlooking the lake. My now changed hair which was a flame colored red blew gently in the wind. It was dark and the sun was just setting in the horizon and the stars began peaking behind dark grey clouds. At this hour vampires began to stir. Getting ready for the night ahead of them. I miss being human. I thought as I heard three familiar voices from behind me. I turned and saw Nora, Blake, and Marcus approaching me but I ignored them and continued to stare off into the distance. Nora and Blake were the ones that found me on the highway that night. Injured and on the verge of death. If it wasn't for Marcus...My thoughts trailed off as I snapped back to reality as I sighed. I was grateful to all three of them..but being like this....a vampire that has to have some control...wasn't and was my choice.... I was turned last week. Due to a car accident that just happened. I was headed home
Blake & Nora's P.O.V"What exactly are we doing here?' Nora asked Blake as she sat beside him over looking the road. It was a cold and chilly night and Nora wore a light blue sweatshirt over a tank top and blue jeans that nearly blended in with the night. Her silver hair was tied securely in a ponytail while stranded hung on her forehead. Blake on the other hand, had on a much more lighter attire which made it so that the cold air hit him.It's not like the weather bothersus but me being once human myself, it felt comfortable and right to wear cloths that felt normal.Nora didn't want to dwell on the past and instead took Blake's hand into hers, drawing his attention to her for a brief moment."What's the matter?" He asked and reached to brush strands of those loose hairs off of Nora's forehead then running a finger along her cheek tenderly.Just before Nora could respond. They heard tires scr
Marcus Wilder's P.O.VI sat on the water edge of the lake thatsatbehind my small cabin. The waves rippled with the wind and the sun had begun to set behind the pine trees casting rays on the ground. At this hour vampires were allowed to come out to enjoy it while it set in the horizon, giving them the longing of being human once again. In those moments, however, I too enjoyed it as well. I longed to be able to go out in the sunlight, to run wild like never before and to see some girl that I had feelings for, radiatein the sun but I knew from years pasts that in a way, it would never happen. Humans aged compared to vampires. We never get old. Always staying the same after we turned. It takes centuries for one to tame their instinct to attack anyone with a vein. I, However was entirelydifferent, scientists found a way to make vampires. More so pure bloods and I was one of them. A genuspig for their tests. Of course I don't remember much of
