He asked and I shrugged.
“I have no idea.” I said noticing we were stopped in front of a black corvette. “No way this is your car.” I said and he smiled.
“You approve of it then?” He said and I nodded.
“It’s gorgeous.” I said and he smiled.
“Well then it’ll suit you just fine.” He said and I blushed.
“Thanks, but I know I don’t look very pretty today.” I said and he laughed.
“Nonsense, you look gorgeous.” He said and I smiled.
“So where are we going?” I asked him and he unlocked the car so I could get in.
“A coffee shop that’s open all night.” He said and I smiled.
“Yeah, I meant to ask, what time is it?” I asked him and he smiled.
“It is one thirty in the morning.” He said and I smiled then my eyes got wide.
“Oh my gosh I told Elle to meet me in the vampire lobby like thirty minutes ago.” I said unbuckling myself.
“Where are you going? Don’t you think she’ll be fine?” He asked and I narrowed my eyes.
“No, I think she’ll be with Ciaran.” I said running towards the vampire lobby. I got there about five minutes later and burst through the entrance.
I looked around, and because I didn’t see Elle I ran up the stairs to Ciaran’s room. I opened the door to Ciaran lying on his bed looking at the ceiling.
“Where is she?” I asked breathing fast.
“I don’t know.” He hissed in my ear suddenly right in front of me.
“Don’t lie to me.” I said trying to ignore the fact that he was so close.
“I have never lied to you. She isn’t talking to me.” He hissed at me yet again, and I tried not to be frightened by his tone or excited by his proximity.
“You’ve never told me the whole truth either.” I said trying to control my temper.
“Neither did you.” He countered and I exploded.
“It’s different! I didn’t know I was in love with you, but you knew what you were doing with my sister!” I yelled and his expression turned to surprise.
“You love me?” He asked and I smirked.
“I loved you; it’s past tense. Another past tense, I trusted you.” I said and he pushed me up against the wall.
“Ahnallie don’t play games with me.” He warned me, and I smirked trying to ignore his hands on either said of the wall next to me.
“If you don’t like the game you shouldn’t have become a player.” I said to him, and he pushed his lips against mine. I tried pushing him off of me because I definitely didn’t want to kiss him, but he was a lot stronger than me being a full vampire.
“Get off of her.” I heard someone growl and Ciaran obliged. I looked over to see Adrian standing in the doorway.
“You know you’re a hypocrite.” I said to Ciaran and they both looked at me surprised, but I wanted to say everything I had to say so I wouldn’t have to talk to him again.
“What are you talking about?” Ciaran asked me.
“You don’t approve of me even being friends with other species, but Elle is a human. She will never be a vampire, and if you try to turn her I will rip your head off. So fair warning if it comes down to it I won’t hesitate. She is perfect how she is, and you’re a monster who’d change her into what you want.” I said and he looked hurt.
“I would never hurt Elle.” He said surprised by my accusation.
“Funny thing is you promised me that too.” I said and he looked down.
“Ahnallie I never meant for this to happen.” He said stepping towards me and Adrian let out a warning growl.
“Yeah because you never planned on falling in love, and you never planned on me figuring out the game you play.” I said and he got confused.
“I’m not playing any game.” He said obviously trying to not look nervous and I breathed deeply as the realization hit me.
“You were making it so that I would only love you. It was a set up wasn’t it?” I asked him hurt by my father’s betrayal. “He thought you were my perfect match so he told you to make me think the same. Didn’t he?” I asked him and he looked down.
“You weren’t ever even my friend. It was all an act, and I walked into it.” I said and Ciaran looked at his feet.
“That’s not true Ahnallie. You are my friend, and I do care about you.” He said, but I shook my head. He walked towards me, and Adrian shoved him to the ground.
“This isn’t your place brother.” Ciaran hissed, and I looked at Adrian.
“Brother?” I asked him looking at their similar features.
“It’s wasn’t your decision to control her life.” He said, and Ciaran growled at him.
“The plan is already set in motion Adrian. There’s no changing it now.” Ciaran said and I furrowed my eyebrows,
“What plan? Who’s controlling my life? Why do I feel like my whole life was chosen for me?” I asked and Adrian grabbed my hand.
“Ahnallie darling please you need to listen to me. Don’t tell anyone what you just heard.” He said and I ran back downstairs right into Elle.
“Elle, don’t let him hurt you.” I said and she looked at me confused, but I kept running.
“Elle.” I heard my dad say as I ran by and I froze.
“Yes?” I asked him, and for some reason I acted like I didn’t know what he did.
“Are you okay?” He asked and I smiled.
“Yeah, I just, Ciaran kissed me.” I said telling him a part of the truth and he nodded.
“What did you think about that?” He asked me and I looked down.
“I don’t know.” I said running into my hall, and then into my room. I heard my door shut behind me, but I lied down in my bed anyways. Then I felt someone lie down next to me, and I felt a strong arm wrap around my waist. I squirmed under his arm so I could face Adrian who was looking down at me.
“Are you okay?” He asked and I buried my face in his shirt, and he kissed the top of my head. I looked up the bed at him and squirmed up a little so I could kiss him gently, but when our lips met I kissed him hungrily catching him off guard. He was just as eager as me though, but I pulled my lips away from his resting my head under his chin.
“Ahnallie you are too wonderful to let an ugly a person as Ciaran hurt you.” He said and I didn’t say anything.
“I’m so confused.” I pouted and I knew he would have smiled if I could’ve seen him.
“I know, but please tell me you haven’t told anyone.” He said, and I nodded.
“I haven’t even though I don’t know why I should trust you.” I said and he sat up looking down at me hurt.
“Ahnallie please tell me you’re kidding.” He said, and I pulled him back down to me.
“I just don’t really know you is all. I do trust you, but I can’t find evidence to support why I should.” I said and he brushed my cheek with his finger.
“I still love you more than I should.” He said and I furrowed my eyebrows.
“What?” I asked him and he smiled.
“I used to be your neighbor when you lived with your father. Ahnallie you were never supposed to be taken from your dad, but the dean interfered with your destiny. Darling we’re supposed to be together can’t you feel it?” He asked me and I searched his eyes for any sign of dishonesty.
“What do you mean the dean interfered with my destiny? Why would he want to do that?” I asked him and he smiled knowingly.
“Elle, you’re the only one of you’re I don’t know kind. You’re unique, special. When you turn 18, and the effects of the human, demon, and vampire blood mix show up you will be like a goddess of death. It’s never been done before, and you were the first person to survive the testing. I remember how scared you were when I found you.” He said and my eyes got wide.
“You were the shadow man who saved me.” I said because everything except who saved me that night was etched in my mind form being trapped in the basement.
“They erased your memories and altered them to suit their purposes Ahnallie. Your dad is still looking for you.” He said and I blinked trying to figure out what kind of weird dream this was.
“Why didn’t you come to me sooner?” I asked him and he frowned.
“Ahnallie, I had no idea what they did with you. I found out a lot though when I was looking for you, and what I know is that being with me changes your destiny. It changes it to something they don’t want.” He said and I nodded.
“Well we can leave.” I said and he shook his head.
“That’s why I wanted to know when you were graduating. If you haven’t graduated then you are considered a run away and I’d be a kidnapper. No one can know that you know what they are doing because if they know you’ve caught on they’ll make it so you fail your classes and be trapped here.” He said and I groaned.
“I hate all these damn secrets.” I said, and he nodded his head.
“I know, and I’m sorry.” He said kissing me gently. “We can’t be together at least for now.” He said pulling away, and I started breathing quick shallow breaths.
“Why?” I asked him.
“They’d know something was up.” He said, and I nodded.
“I can’t do this without you.” I said and he nodded.
“I’ll never be far.” He said, and I nodded.
“So we won’t be able to be together like this.” I said kissing him again and he shook his head.
“Not in public, and we can’t be caught coming in and out of each other’s rooms either.” He said and I nodded.
“I’ll miss you.” I said, and he smiled.
“I love you.” He said and I blushed. “I’ll miss reminding you of that. Could you do me a favor though?” He asked me and I nodded.
“Yeah, anything.” I said and he smiled.
“Tell me you love me even if it’s a lie.” He said and I blushed.
“I do love you. I don’t have to lie about it.” I said, and he smiled kissing me.
“I need to go.” He said and I groaned.
“Please don’t.” I said and he looked torn.
“It’s hard to say no when I haven’t seen you in so long. You have gotten so beautiful.” He said brushing my cheek with his fingers.
“Then stay.” I said, and he smiled.
“You know I can’t.” He said, and I shook my head.
“It’s not fair.” I pouted, and he smiled.
“I know, but I’ll try to come back tonight.” He said, and I frowned grabbing his hand as he stood up.
“Promise me.” I said knowing it wasn’t fair.
“I promise I’ll come back to you.” He said, and I felt my throat burn as a tear rolled down my cheek. I was upset by him leaving for some reason.
“Your subconscious remembers what it felt like to be torn from my arms that night.” He said brushing the tear off of my face.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I said upset I couldn’t remember him from before yesterday.
“Don’t’ fret Ahnallie it’s not your fault. Just know
“I have no idea.” I said noticing we were stopped in front of a black corvette. “No way this is your car.” I said and he smiled.
