My generic vampire story.
if you like it, why thank you very much.
if not...well who cares about your whiny ass opinion?
rate and comment anyways.
PART 1
Standing in the moon lite bedroom, I felt a kind of peace wash over me. I felt safe here, even though I was at my most vulnerable point. He could come at any moment, take what he wanted and leave.
He could leave forever.
Why did that thought fill me with sadness....if he was gone, there would be no fear or worries. No more mind games and illusions. I'd be free from him. after all, he's cocky, self absorbed, controlling, and...handsome, charming, passionate and....
I loved him despite his flaws.
"Stupid vampire..." i whispered to the empty room.
at least i thought it was empty.
"Just can't keep your mind off me huh?" someone's dark voice answered.
My heart rose in my throat and blocked the scream building in my chest. All the fear, anticipation, and worry....and now he was finally here.
I heard his lithe footfalls before i felt his chilled fingers on the back of my neck. I couldn't even suppress the shudder the followed the trail of his fingertips.
"you're a bit tense..." his voice hissed into my ear. He whirled me till i faced him. I couldn't meet those eyes, the deep, fathomless, raven black eyes. Instead i poured all my concentration into the top button of his school uniform. Without looking, i could tell he was amused. He steered me until my back was up against the wall.
Placing one finger on the top button of my blouse, he smirked.
"pop..." he snapped off the button and it hit the floor with an echoing clatter. "Pop..." Then came another.
"Stop." i barely managed to stammer out.
His amused smirk crawled into an full out grin. "Maybe you'd like me to start a little lower." He slid one finger down and tugged at the top of my skirt.
I shut my eyes tight. "Please don't..."
i felt him remove his hand. only to slam them into the wall beside my head. "What the hell's your problem?" if at all possible his voice sounded darker.
I took a risk and looked him brazenly in the eyes. God damn him, he was sexy, but angry. This was the side of Kain was hoping never to meet. "I- I...."
"Why do i have to try so hard for you! I can get any girl i want but you won't even give me the time of day! You realize i can have any way i want right?! But you just act like i'm nothing!!"
He gripped my shoulders hard and occasionally jerked me for emphasis.
My mouth opened slightly in awe. Was he...actually feeling inferior because of me? I swallowed hard and glared back at him. "Well then why choose me huh?! Why bother if you can just get others?! I mean nothing to you so why keep trying?!"
He was slightly taken back by my uncharacteristic outburst but like always, he recovered. "Is that what you think? That i'm trying so hard because you mean nothing.....you idiot." his eyes pierced through me and before i could reply-
He bit me.
A moment of sharp intense pain and then ecstasy. The endorphins coursing through me were practically orgasmic. It was no wonder to me why dracula's victims never screamed. They died with a smile.
But before i could reach the climax of this unnatural high, he pulled away, bringing that pain with him. i gasped at how sudden it was and groped at the puncture marks. i crashed and crashed hard to the floor. I stared up at him in disbelief. Disbelief that he bit me and disbelief that he'd stopped. He wasn't looking at me, but more so through me. He seemed almost....drunk. my brain slowly supplied the word. I could feel everything getting heavier.
"Kain..." i trembled.
His eyes finally focused on my face and a lazy smile crawled across his features. he bent low and leaned into my neck. I braced myself, expecting the steel fangs to slide back in. Instead, I felt him brush his lips against the wound. A gentle graze, but it felt like he'd lite a fire there. It was the closest i've come to being kissed. "You're mine now, little roza."
And with what i could only describe as a flourish of movement, he was gone.
Silence seemed to thunder in my ears. Every sense was in a vacuum. I suddenly remembered my neck and began feeling for the holes, but there were none. But I could marvel at that later, i needed to pass out. i stumbled/dragged myself to my bed and collapsed. Grey spots formed in my vision and i began to slip into unconsciousness. Just before i let go of my grasp on reality i swore i heard a soft chuckle.
PART 2
Kain didn't come to school the next day. Or the next or even for the rest of the week. He was considered M.I.A. but no one really thought much of it, greatly due to his loner attitude. It was quiet. And as days turned into weeks, i started to get complacent without him around.
Part of me thought this act was just his new way of torturing me. Let the fear stew inside me and let insanity come naturally.
then again, maybe he was gone forever. Maybe now that he had finally got what he wanted from me, he no longer found amusement in his "Little Roza". Maybe...no. It was pointless and dumb to let my hopes get up when i knew damn well he was gonna come back. Those parting words were all the confirmation I needed to that. But there was such a normalcy falling back into my life that it was hard not to be a little more laxed in everything. It seemed like the safe and uninteresting pattern that i was accustom to had settled again.
The only new drama in my routine was my mother.
It was Friday, and mommy dearest was out on yet another blind, cocktail induced round of speed dating. As i watched the number of half empty martini glasses on the night stand increase, i also saw the drop in my mom's taste in men. They started as me in cheap business suits and swiftly declined to whoever was willing to follow her back to her lair. I only dared to confront her about all this once and the experience had ended with me on the receiving end of a back hand slap across the face. She stumbled away from me, muttering something about me looking too much like my father. The only good that came out of her drinking was that i was given free roam of the house without her around. And i enjoyed every minute of it.
With my mother out doing Lord knows what with a man she probably met over the rim of a whiskey glass, i could read in peace. All i wanted to do was haul up for the rest of the night and dig my way through this book. But as i entered my bedroom, i was paralyzed by the sight on my bed.
Kain.
Sprawled out comfortably in what looked like the same clothing i'd last seen him in. There he was in all his deathly pale glory, the vampire from my nightmares. The amused, lazy smile was drifting at the corners of his....his...perfectly sculpted lips...God dammit stop that! The rational fear centered portion of my mind was arguing with the girlie teenager in me, and hopelessly failing. God it was hard not to be astounded by his ungodly good looks. The chiseled muscles and naturally tasseled crow feather black hair...it could make any girl's heart thump audibly.
Kain's smile crawled up higher on his face. He knew i was secretly admiring him.
And he loved it.
"Bueno sera," that smirk and smug sounding voice only brought back memories of the way his teeth had felt as they slid into my neck weeks ago. Rationality finally won out and caused me to boldly stamp across the room and up to the window. Flinging it open and pointing out i demanded, "Get out."
I tried to make my voice menacing and steady but i knew that to him it would just be white noise.
His expression flattened a little. "What's a matter? Don't want to play today, my little roza?" My glare grew darker. Sighing dramatically, he stood up. "I suppose i can make it quicker this time."
He appeared in behind me and pulled the collar on my shirt down gently. "If you could just be kind enough to hold your hair back..." He pressed his lips against my neck. "Then i'll just..." his lips began to part.
I tried to whirl and back hand him much like my mother had me but he caught my wrist and pushed me back on the bed. Without appropriate time to react i was helpless. He had me pinned, the full weight of his body against mine, his head hung low.
"Why?"
I blinked. Why what?
"Why can you resist me?" his voice reminded me of the other night, when fury was etched in each word and burned in my ears. But this voice, lower...colder and dead compared to before. I didn't like it.
He didn't look at me as he rose up and off me. i sat up and surveyed him unsure of what to do or say. He walked to my still open window and in a single leap, landed like a cat on the sill.
"If that's what you want then i'll lea-"
"Wait!" I exclaimed. i hadn't realized that i wanted him to stay this much, despite what i had told him to do. He glanced at me over his shoulder. "Yes?"
i scrambled for something to say. "What....what did you mean i'm yours now?" I had pondered on this fact for days but i came up only with that he claimed my blood as his favorite.
he regarded me for a few moments and chuckled softly. "I'm never giving you up to anyone else now." he smiled but it sounded like a threat almost.
my eyebrows clenched together in confusion and i just stared at him helplessly. "What does that even mean?!"
The last i saw of him, was his smirk...
PART 3
Like everything, sleeping was nightmarish. Just falling into it unconsciousness was nearly impossible, let alone staying that way. My dreams were invaded by the inescapable image of a raven, Kain's personal calling card, and a crescent moon. I didn't really need to know the specific meaning of the moon, it was frightening all on it's own. He had that kind of power over me, the power to slink into my dreams and memories like a shadow. No matter what Kain wanted me to always be thinking of him, even if it meant tormenting me.
On this particular night however, I didn't wake from a dream gone wrong, no this was much more than a figment. I heard a voice, soft and colder than the air coming from the open window.
"He was here."
I nearly screamed from the quiet suddenness of this simple phrase. It was so low but it shattered the silence in my dark room. I thought maybe it was Kain, so perhaps if i...
cautiously i opened one eyelid a fraction and almost gasped.
He was practically the photo negative of Kain. His blond hair was bleached in the moon light and lay flat atop his scalp. Kain's was obsidian and was always fashionably unkempt. His eyes almost glowed vermilion in the darkness(Kain's matched his hair), and surveyed the room scrupulously. He was tall, lanky and pale, and almost angelic in the this odd light while Kain- hey...why the hell am i suddenly comparing every guy that breaks into my room to him....damn that leech.
"Kain..." he breathed the name venomously. I started at the sound of his name. This man, whoever he was, knew Kain...the question is how. To the rest of the world, Kain was a high school student, okay a very attractive high school student but no one suspected anything out of the ordinary. Maybe...did he know of what Kain really was?
The intruder suddenly turned toward me and i slammed my eyes shut. I only prayed he hadn't noticed. His footsteps were barely audible but i could tell he stood in front of me. My heart began to race, he knew, i just know it.
"I'm sorry..." he whispered. "He's gotten to you."
His fingertips brushed along the faint scar on my neck and i nearly gasped at how cold they were. "if i had just been quicker in finding him..."
Why did his voice seem so sad? It sounded like his heart was breaking at the thought of me being bit. Wait, then that means he does know what Kain is. But what does that make this man?
"He needs to be stopped. Before he uses you like her..." his voice grew darker and heavier. It was terrible and angry, like Kain's the night before.
"Please forgive me, but really...I have no choice." he flicked my hair away to expose my neck. "I am weak..."
His words drifted off as his lips parted against my skin. My eyes flashed open just as i felt teeth sink in. His mouth closed around the reopened wound and I could feel him feverishly draining away the small pool of blood. In the sickest sense it felt like he was kissing me.
I didn't get the same high as i did when Kain bit me, he didn't bite me long enough for the endorphins to flow through. But Kain never drank this long, this man wouldn't stop. He just kept drinking, he was so caught up in his little feeding that i feared he might drain me dry. Panicked, i grabbed a handful of his hair and pulled until i could feel his roots giving way.
His eyes suddenly met mine and i could feel the shock run through him. In his surprise, he clenched his jaw in my neck and i gasped in pain. this was awful, agony sparking in every fiber of my body. He quickly tore himself away, tearing the wound farther. I groped at the rip in my flesh as tears stung up in the corner of my eyes.
The man just stared at me in disbelief, looking just as scared as i was, if not more so. He stood there, cinnabar blood streaked around his mouth, eyes wide. I wanted to scream or lash out at him but every muscle was heavy and my breathing came out in uncontrolled shudders.
He ran. Jumping out the open window without looking back, that same panicked look on his face. I slumped down into my bed, the pain causing my body to convulse slightly.
I felt like dying. Anything, would be better than this.
Part 4
"Wake the hell up!!"
The harsh command broke through the inky abyss that was my sleep. Ugh, and it was so loud. It made my head want to explode, like the day after my first hangover.
"NOW ROSEMARY!!"
Alright, alright...
i slid open my eyelids and was immediately confronted with Kain's angry features only a breath away from my face.
"What the hell?!"
Oh god, what did he want? Is sleeping no longer allowed in his sick little game? I snarled and tried to roll over, but he caught my shoulder and pulled me to him. I winced....ow...sudden movements...
"Roza...."
His face was stern and hard but that voice...pleading, soft and scared. Kain was...afraid?
"Who..." he gently placed his fingertips on my neck and a shock ran through me.
Last night....oh god.
He...that man...that vampire. Every second of that moment flooded through me. The agonizing torture of having your life literally sucked out of you, that god awful feeling of having skin shredded by ivory fangs, and the sound of his gluttonous feeding. It was sickening, no wonder i blocked it out. My face seemed to blanch and i clutched my chest as i began hyperventilating.
This reaction didn't help Kain's worry. He scooped me up in his arms and hugged me to his chest as he ran for the window. "Kain...Kain! NO!" was all i managed to get out as he sprang from the window to a two story drop.
I clenched my eyes shut tightly, expecting the inevitable splatter, but all that came next was Kain's high dollar dress shoes hitting the pavement lightly. To afraid to see the next act of insane vampire acrobatics, i kept my eyes welded shut but i could sense we were flying. The only thing i really felt was the whip of wind hitting me in the face and the tightening of Kain's grip on me as he landed. Hesitantly, i opened my eyes.
He stood outside an apartment complex. It was huge and imposing, surprisingly fitting for Kain's odd taste. This was the ritzy part of town, all the elite lived near here. Should've known he would live here...
He glanced down at me. "Are you alright?" He shifted his hold on me to one arm and leaped elegantly up to the balcony of the third floor.
I clamped my hand over my mouth...motion sickness. "I would be so much better if you would stop doing that!"
He smiled a fraction and slid open the glass door of what i assumed to be his apartment. why else would he take me here?
Kain laid me down on a leather couch and stalked off to the kitchen. I didn't understand this. Why bring me to his house when he seemed to enjoy torturing me in my own home? Then again...
I was seeing a different side of Kain. It was caring. For once i didn't feel like all i was to him was a blood bag. Maybe, maybe he did feel something for me. I should know better than to get my hopes up like this but i couldn't help it.
Kain returned with an orange and wet rag. He handed me the orange and squat in front of me. He brushed my blood caked hair away from my wound and started gingerly cleaning away the remnants of last night. I didn't feel entirely safe having him this close to my exposed neck but who was i kidding, I loved him being this close to my face. It was easy to examine his gorgeous features from here. The frosted tone of his skin, that chiseled jaw and soft, feathered hair. And more importantly, his eyes. They were slanted upwards, making them look energetic but the color also made them appear dangerous. Normally they were hard and piercing, like ice. But right now, as he concentrated on being careful, they were soft and liquid like ink. They were beautiful....
His gaze flicked to my face and i flushed red. I wanted to look away, to act like i hadn't been watching him like an obsessed little girl, but...something seized me. I could sense it in him too. We didn't want to break this, this...whatever it was. I didn't know how it happened, but his mouth was at mine suddenly and he was kissing me.
It was hungry. And enveloping. His kiss was the only thing that matter in this world. It felt like everything hinged on this moment.
I dropped the orange in my hand and laced my fingers in his hair as i began to mimic the movement of his lips. He tossed the rag over his shoulder and cupped his hand around my neck. He climbed on the couch, pressing his hips into mine as he hovered over me. I suppressed a moan and gripped his shirt as i brushed my lips over his neck. His chilled finger tips slipped under my sweater, sweeping across my bare stomach and down to the top of my skirt.
I could feel it, i was finally going to have sex.
Harsh laughter suddenly broke in my ears.
I blinked and everything returned to as it had been just a few minutes ago. The orange in my hand, the leather couch underneath me and Kain squatting in front of me, laughing.
"You've got quite the imagination there Rosemary." his snarky attitude had returned.
I backed away from him and gave my best "eat shit and die look". "You pig..."
He smirked and rose off the balls of his feet fluidly. "oh come now, did you really think you could get away with having those kind of day dreams so close to me? Hmm?" He tapped my nose with his forefinger. "Silly little Roza. Your every thought and feeling, well they belong to me."
He walked back to the kitchen. "And i don't approve of being called 'Pig'. Master or Kain-sama...that would be more appropriate."
The day hell freezes over, asshole....
"I heard that." He sang from the kitchen sink.
"I don't care."
"Are you sure? I'm in your head. That doesn't perturb you in the slightest? The last one hated it..."
"Last one?" I blinked.
"Yes..." His voice changed to nostalgia. "Sonya, was her name... Beautiful girl. Her blood had a lovely bouquet to it...she acted a lot like you come to think about it...generally quiet, secretly fierce. A firecracker." He smirked. "A tyrant in bed..." he glanced at me mockingly.
"Shut it..."
"But she's gone now..." he breathed a quick sigh. "Just like the one before her...and the one before that."
"Let me guess, you got too eager and sucked em dry right?" I tried to but as much venom and contempt in my voice as possible.
He was in front of me in a flash. His face stretched and contorted with anger. "Don't you ever insult their memory you little snot," he grabbed my chin hard and forced my face up to his. "Your blood isn't nearly as good as your predecessors so i'd watch your mouth."
He released my face and jerked me backwards. I fell back and rubbed my chin where his finger nails had dug into my skin. I hesitantly looked him in the eyes and asked quietly. "Who were the others....i mean what were the others?"
His expression softened slightly and he looked out the glass door that led to the balcony. "They were...my Heilmittel."
He spoke the word with a thick accent, like it was russian or german maybe. "Hel- hei- the what?" I asked.
"The Heilmittel. The cure. What my kind call the humans we feed from habitually. Their blood is tailored to a specific vampire's taste from their birth."
I blinked. "What do you mean tailored?"
"to a certain vampire, some humans blood taste different. If we drink from that human it can make us stronger...and addicted. To us, its like having your own custom drug."
"so...instead of feeding from this person for food or nourishment... you do it to get high?" i asked scrutinizing.
He flopped down in a over sized leather chair and stared up at the ceiling. "Basically...it does more than make us feel good. It amplifies our power...it can make you do things you could only imagine..."
".....then is that what i am to you?"
His eyes scrolled down to my face and a smile sprung up on his face.
"very good. It only took you the whole explanation to figure it out." And there went the smile.
"Sarcasm isn't needed or wanted. And why do i doubt that that was the whole explanation?"
He sighed. "Heilmittel are supposed to stay with their users...
forever."
Okay....that was a slap in the face. "What do you mean stay forever?"
"I mean they don't die and they continue to live with us forever. Those endorphins that i know you enjoy ever so much is our way of keeping you alive. it virtually destroys the pituitary gland, to keep you from aging and will keep your your heart pumping for an eternity. You save us, we save you." He beckoned to me with a lazy finger. i rose to my feet but not of my own free will. "but only with regular feedings."
I trumped forward, my legs taking me away from the safety of the leather couch. I didn't try to resist. I knew there was no point in it. I stood before him and he grabbed my wrist, pulling me down to his lap. His cold hand pressed to my forehead and he gently pushed my head to his shoulder. i didn't budge, but now i couldn't tell if it was his doing that kept me there or my reluctance to move from this spot.
He spoke softly into my hair. "The others were taken from me by other men. Men who simply used them once and let them die. That's how i saw sonya go...and why i was bothered by seeing you like that."
I couldn't breathe, this was...i don't know. Nice didn't cover it. I dug my nails into my palm, nothing. At least it wasn't another illusion.
"whoever got to you last night will be killed. I refuse to lose another girl..."
Protection...caring...these words didn't describe kain but right now it was all i could feel.
"I promise..." He brushed his lips along the wound on my neck but i didn't flinch. A warm feeling passed through me. I touched my neck, and to my surprise i found no mark. Like last time.... so their bites make you high and a kiss can heal you...That's not weird at all....
"Your confused aren't you?" he asked.
I nodded. "I don't get you. One minute your the epitome of a story book villain the next you...do this." I waved my hand at how he had his arms wrapped around me.
he stared off blankly. "I know...I know...but i was referring more to you neck"
"oh that....that doesn't surprise me as much as what your doing right now."
He sighed and looked at me somberly. "You don't think much of me do you?"
I turned my head away. "Its hard to after all the things you said and done."
"I'm.....sorry...."
.....He's apologizing?! Okay what the hell is going on? This can't be Kain. Kain lacks compassion, mercy, and above all else remorse.
"You're forgiven..." i responded back robotically. I had to. It might be the only apology i ever get out of him.
His arms squeezed around me tighter. I closed my eyes for some reason. I think i was actually comfortable. We just sat there for the longest time and i could feel myself drifting off. He might have been dozing too, he hadn't moved and his breathing was slow, so eventually...i just let go and fell asleep.
