Chapter 16
Seeing that no one answered him, he returned to licking the kid’s neck. When he was ab out to sink his elongated canines into his neck, a stone hit his back.
He immediately stood. This time he was pissed.
“Show yourself, weakling!” he barked.
Lavana didn’t move or make a sound.
The lone vampire looked around and sniffed. He suddenly looked in her direction.
“Omega, stop hiding. Come out before I motivate you.”
Lavana nervously rose.
She was now seeing him face to face and her heart nearly leapt out of her chest. This was a freaking lone vampire for heaven’s sake. An unrestrained creature!
“You are too thin. I bet you have less blood than this pup here but since you’ve shifted, it’s somewhat manageable. Come, deliver your neck to me. I’ll only drink a little.” he beckoned with a smile, revealing his yellow teeth.
“I’m very sorry sir! I didn’t mean to startle you…”
“No need to apologize. Just come to me. I don’t plan on giving you lasting harm. I’ll only bite once.” he beckoned again.
“No… I am scared of you. A bite from you will kill me. I want to live.” she turned around, wanting to flee only for him to appear in front of her.”
“I don’t like disobedients. Me inviting you twice was already an honor.” he started choking her with one hand.
“Please… cough… cough… let me go. I promise not… to say a word!” she said with difficulty.
At this moment, the boy opened his eyes. Remembering that a lone vampire had gotten hold of bhim, he quickly rose to check the surroundings.
Yeah, though he hadn’t shifted, he could see at night to a certain degree.
He found the evil man choking a skinny, bare lady. Since there was a blur covering her back to her thigh, he guessed she was a werewolf too from another pack.
Why was she here? Did she try to save him? He felt something hot and sticky on the right side of his neck. It was green and nauseating but he dare not vomit.
The vampire, seeing that his prey had woken up, increased his force on choking Lavana who was crying already for mercy.
“Let her go!” Pedro was forced to yell.
Lavana’s eye’s widened. The kid was awake? Why didn’t he just escape?
“Kiddo…. run… just run away… find your parents…. run… please…” she urged with difficulty.
“I…” Pedro stuttered but she urged him to run once more.
“I’ll come back for you…” he said and started running. The vampire laughed.
“He won’t get any farther than a mile. Then I’ll have fun surprising him again. Hahaha!”
Lavana kept coughing, trying hard to remove his hand from her neck to no avail.
“Time to die, hun.” the vampire laughed and was lowering his head, ready to bite her.
Suddenly, her hands became hot.
Shocked, he quickly let her go, causing her to fall weakly to the cround. She clutched her aching neck as she coughed.
“You… what are you?” the vampire’s hand was almost burnt.
“Better start talking before I send you to hell.” he thundered.
She struggled to stand and looked at him in the eye.
“I’m an Omega. I escaped from the pack that used me as a punching bag. I just wanna go far away and start all over. Please, let me go.” she begged.
“That doesn’t answer my question.”
“Ok. I’ll tell you. Take this!” she lauched a fireball at him. He was startled but dodged in time. Lavana took this opportunity to turn around in attempt to escape but he appeared before her again.
“You aren’t just an Omega. You must be a hybrid.” he said with ire and started choking her again.
She held his hand and he immediately let her go.
His hands were burnt this time.
“I’ll kill you, wrench!” he thundered. She immediately launched an ice chain which wrapped around his neck. She began to pull, causing the ice chain to tighten. It was his turn to choke.
“You… cough… cough… cough.. cough… Let me go!” he said slowly. The chains were very cold. Even though he was cold blooded, this kind of chiliness wasn’t welcomed by his body at all.
She pulled on the chain again, increasing his rate of coughing. For once, she was glad that she was in control, but she didn’t know how long. She had to buy enough time for that chap to escape. Then she’d head back to the sea and get in. This vampire can’t swim fast as her in merform. Vampires like him may not even wanna get into the water. It was too much of a hassle for a walking dead!
She increased the tightness of the chain but he suddenly broke it with his hands after being pushed to the limit.
“Cough… cough.. cough. You wrench! I’m gonna kill you.” he said as the ice chains on his neck vanished.
She launched fireballs at him and started running towards the sea. She must get there in time. Maybe, the effect of her ice chain would be greater there.
“Get back here!” he barked. He couldn’t run as fast as before as his body was still recovering from the suffering just now.
“If I get my hands on you.. cough… cough I will…”
“You won’t get a chance, you bastard!” she yelled and launched more fire balls at him before continuing her escape.
The fire balls only stopped him for a minute before he resumed the pursuit.
“If things continue this way, I’ll be drained even before I get to the seashore. I need to think of a way.” she thought.
“Stop right there. I said stop!”
“You think I’m a fool?”
Water balls appeared above her hands and she launched them at him fast, not at all slowing her running pace.
“Your blood will be the sweetest I ever tasted.”
“My blood is very bitter. Stop following me.”
By now, the lone vampire was drenched but it didn’t deter him.
Soon, she could see the seashore. She was so glad in her heart and ran faster. This was her only chance at survival.
Suddenly, two figures dropped down from the trees, blocking her path to the seashore 20 feet away. They folded their arms and smiled at her meaningfully.
“Hello, hun. It seems your having fun with our friend. You want us to join?”
Lavana stopped in her tracks. Color drained from her face.
Those two were also vampires. Freaking lone vampires!
She could barely handle a weakened one, now two high level ones just had to appear when she was this close to the water.
How unlucky she was!
The vampire who had been chasing her finally caught up and saw his companions. He then flashed a wicked smile.
“Where can you run to now?” he asked with a chuckle.
“I really need to pee right now.” she said with a quivering voice.
“We would like to accompany and protect you from dangerous wildlife.” one of the two vampires who just appeared said.
What nonsense protection? She’d rather face those snakes from that island again than be with these creatures here.
She walked behind a tree and relieved herself while thinking of ways to escape.
Getting to the sea was a no-no. No time to shift to wolf form. Even if she did, how fast could she run?
Vampires are naturally faster than werewolves, ok!Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She saw some birds fly past in the sky chirping happily.
A thought came into her mind. Who said flying won’t help? She just needed to buy herself some time.
When she was done peeing, she came out from behind the large tree and faced the three lone vampires again.
