25. The Night
1014 Words
"Your room has a shower and a closet full of clothes. Feel free to use anything you want. If you need anything, I'll be in the adjacent room." He almost ran out of the door.
I hadn't slept in a proper bed for so long, but I decided to take a shower first. I started hearing growling and water running. I carefully went to my shower, but no one was there. I realized the water must be running in Arthur's bedroom. Was he growling in there?
The shower walls were made out of grey rocks. So I turned on the water, enjoyed my time and the lovely smelling soaps, and took a nice long hot shower. I was trying to wash away the last few days and hoping Jacob was okay, wishing I could at least talk to Lea. Maybe she could have reached him.
I grabbed a towel from the shelf, wrapped myself in it, and went to the closet to see what I could put on for the night. The wardrobe had a few girls' clothes, even pajamas, jeans, shirts, and blouses. While on the other side of it, it was full of male attire. So I figured that the male one must be Arthur's. I didn't want to put on another girl's clothes. So I put on a long T-shirt and pajama pants that belonged to Arthur and dove into the soft bed.
There was a nightstand next to it. I felt like a kid going through someone else's things. I opened the side drawer to check it out and found a bunch of condoms in there. I closed the drawer quickly.
Can vampires get pregnant? My guess was yes, as Mr. Jules has two kids, and condoms were another clue.
I got under the covers and waited for sleep to take me. It didn't take long, even though I had already slept most of the day on the sandy shore. The stress must have been too much.
Then I was running through the woods, where I saw Jakob. I ran into his arms. He was kissing me, and I was kissing him back. I felt his body, as his love for me was soaking through his skin and filling me up. All I ever wanted was to be with him. He was holding me with his big arms. I said, "I love you. I was so worried about you. I am glad you are okay," but he didn't reply.
Then he reached for my neck. He was kissing and sucking it, and then suddenly, there was so much pain I screamed and saw that it was Seth drinking my blood. He stopped, lowered his face to mine, and smiled. He was covered in my blood. I cried out and tried to escape his grip but could not. I kept screaming, but he held me tight and bit me again in the same spot, sucking more of my blood. I kept trying to fight him, but I could not. I felt utterly powerless. My neck was burning.
I opened my eyes and saw Arthur holding me this time. I wanted to scream more again, but I could not. My neck was hurting. I touched it, it had a scar from Seth, but it was dry. It was just a nightmare.
Arthur must have run in and tried to wake me up. Did he hear me? But I couldn't scream. I could not even whisper. Why was he here?
"I was dreaming that you were yelling and crying while Seth was draining you, and I could not move to help you," Arthur told me. "I woke up and went to check on you. You were tossing in the bed, tears rolling down your face."
I touched my cheeks. They were soaked with tears.
Arthur was so close. I was tingling all over again. My stomach had a funny feeling. It was so hard being next to him. Arthur held me softly, and I melted into his chest, feeling his body through his T-shirt. He started to kiss my hair and then moved to my face, wiping my tears with his fingers, giving me chills and excitement at the same time. I was holding on to him, unsure what to do. I was trembling.
His hands went down to my neck while he stared at it. "Is this where Seth bit you? Let me put something on it," he disappeared quickly.
I was alone in my bed. I thought that I should tell Arthur to leave me for the night. But I was scared of being alone again after the chilling dream.
I could still feel his touch on my skin, and I didn't want to admit I wanted more. I felt guilty. I have to send him away when he comes back.
He returned in a few minutes with gloves on his hands and some cream. He put it on my wound and rubbed it on my neck. I could still feel his fingers through the gloves, as they were not even a layer of latex between us.
He was treating my neck, but I felt it all the way down between my legs. His face was so close to me while rubbing the cream into my wound. I don't know what happened. I must have lost my mind. I reached out and kissed him on the lips, touching his hair with my fingers.
His eyes were full of lust. He dropped the cream, took his gloves off, and grabbed me, pushing me down on the bed, caressing my body from my face down to my neck, then getting to my breasts through the shirt while kissing me on the mouth. He pulled on my shirt, tearing it off me. I felt that I could not breathe. I could not think. The desire for him was too much to bear.
Then I heard her!
"What do you think you are doing?" Lea yelled at me.
