Jessie's Revenge, Tyler White [epub ebook reader txt] 📗

His head shot back up and apologized for not getting us there on time. "I really need to get you to Varkis, I will be fired if I don't. Just say that it was my fault because I was showing you Criton. He'll understand." He merely smiled and kept walking down the long corridor finally stopping at a cherry wood door, with the words Varkis printed on the door.
The vampire slowly opened the door and nodded, motioning us to step inside. The room was dark and the walls were painted an ugly green, like a lime green. The walls were fading and the furniture was old, the vampire I had seen was sitting in an maroon colored chair, one leg over the other while his lips curled into an evil smile.
"Well, aren't you the sister of that snobby little girl were keeping?" He looked over at Tyler and studied him, "And...Your the brother?" I clenched my teeth and Jessie was about to lunge at him but I stopped her, she looked at me funny and pulled away.
Varkis stood up and called for the other vampires in the room that we didn't notice. "Do any of you remember these children?" The vampires stared at us with beady black eyes. One of them answered yes and I knew who he was, he was one of the vampires I saw last year.
Varkis grabbed a chunk of my hair and pulled me away from Tyler and Jessie, who had to be held back by the vampires in the room. I struggled to get away by scratching his arms and dragging my feet on the hard granite floors. I heard screaming and realized it was Scar, whining and whimpering from pain.
Varkis brought me into the room. The floors were concrete and so were the walls. Blood stains were splattered on the floor like paint and a metal table stood in the middle of the dismal room. Scar was chained to the table and two vampires crowded her.
Scar stared at me sadly and helpless, her cloudy eyes forming with tears. Dirt, blood, and sweat covered her face and clothing and her hair was in a clumpy mess. I struggled to get away from Varkis but his hand covered my mouth and his other hand around my waist. He smiled his shiny white teeth and ordered the vampires to unchain Scar or as he called her "Chump."
I almost couldn't breathe. I was slowly fading but then I bit his hand hard and he released his grip on me. I broke free and grabbed Scar with one hand and tried to run out but one of the vampires stopped me and tried to take Scar, but I held onto her so tightly my fingers went numb.
I broke free and ran out the door, traveling to get Tyler and Jessie. When I stepped through the door, all the vampires were dead and Jessie and Tyler were already heading out. "C'mon!" I yelled to them, the came right behind me as we bashed through the door that led inside the palace. The guards didn't have a chance to stop us.
We ran miles into the forest and then out finally, heading back home. I wanted to stop but I couldn't, Eliza meant everything to me. When we were finally in front of the door, I fell to the floor, every muscle in my body aching. Tyler fell to the ground too, almost defeated. We just rested on the front porch, Jessie watching over us.
Chapter 6

After a good rest, Jessie woke us up and we were inside the house by the fireplace. The fire was burning and the smell of wood filled my nostrils. The fire popped and crackled and the flames jumped. I sat up and layed Scar in my lap, happy to have her with me.
Tyler winked at me and gave me a smile, one I hadn't seen in a long time.
