Teaser 4
Conner took
the last step as the lights finally flickered on, shining their brightness
throughout the basement. The room held an eeriness to it now, a cold sinister
feeling that enfolded the skin and made the hairs on his arms stand on end. She
was here.
He could hear
movement in the one cell that held Kasey’s friend Sarah yet all else was still
yet he could feel her very essence, could almost taste it in the air.
“So you come
down to have another round?” Sarah called out walking up to the bars her hand
down the front of her panties. She grinned when she saw him. “Or maybe the
other brother wants to play instead?”
Conner ignored
her as he went to the far cell and looked in. Grace hung by her arms from thick
steel chains in the center of the room, her legs dangling mere inches from the
cement clasped by similar means so she couldn’t move. She wore a simple white
shawl that covered her down to her knees.
A week without
feeding had weakened her, she was paler then before, blue and purple veins had
begun to streak across her skin. Even her vibrant blonde hair had begun to
whiten and fade, yet her vivid ice blue eyes held as true as ever.
“I was
wondering when you would come visit me.” She said lifting her head to stare at
him. “Did you bring me someone to eat, lover?”
Conner didn’t
answer her, his voice trapped behind his lips as he unlocked the cell door.
“I asked about
you, you know,” her icy stare following his every moment, “but William refused
to tell me anything. He never did really like me did he? I was almost worried
about you, but I could smell your scent still and knew you had survived. Ever
an impressive man you have been.” She smiled at him. “I wasn’t going to kill
you, you know.”
“That’s not
what it looks like on my end.” He replied holding his voice firmly.
“I promise
you, I have never wanted you dead my love.” Her grin was wicked. “I was going
to turn you.”
His stomach
twisted at the words. “I would have rather died.”
“You say that
now only because you don’t know what it is like to be like me.”
“I’ve seen
enough of what your kind does to know I want no part of it.”
She chuckled
menacingly. “Have you never wondered what it’s like, even a little?”
“No.” His
reply was cold and hard.
“A pity,” she
mused, “you’d like it, no more pain, sorrow, regret, fear, gone all of it. All
you have to do is ask and I will take it all away for you. The dreams that
haunt you will disappear, the pain that seizes your heart every time you think
of them will vanish.”
