Hunter POV.
In the car listening to Avril Lavigne "Everybody hurts." Is honestly pretty calming. Even though it's actually kinda sad but still a great song. I pull into the drakes drive way and put the car in park. Of course right when I get out I smell mushrooms. I grab the stake from my one of my boots. Mushrooms mean hel-blar which are horrible vampires with a full set of needle sharp teeth, there skin is blue which no one knows exactly why but theirs not exactly one that would allow someone to test them. All vampires are super strong, fast and have amazing hearing and sight.
Since I am a Helios Ra student I have been trained since I was old enough to walk so one hel-blar wouldn't bother me and it doesn't. I heard movement in the bushes then I was surrounded by them there was about 15 of them and 1 of me.
"what do you think? Take or eat?" one of them asks.
"I say we mess with her." Another one says smiling.
"I'll beat your ass before I let you taste me." I spat at them. I knew it was only a matter of time until Quinn and his family heard my heartbeat.
He smiles "I don't think that's much of a possibility for you is it?"
"um yeah it is." I smile back just as a stake goes right through his heart and he turns to dust. My smile turns to a grin as I see Helena, Liam, Quinn, Logan, Isabeau, Kieran the rest of them except Solange and Lucy. While there distracted I roundhouse kick straight into a hel-blars gut then turn and stake another one right behind me. And that's when everyone springs into action. Helena who is practically a ninja seeing that she's a vampire and knows how to beat some ones ass without a flick of her finger is taking on 3 all at one time whereas the rest are having trouble with 1. Except Quinn thinks this is so much fun is laughing while he stakes anything that comes to close to him.
The hel-blar are coming at me from every angle. You see the hunger in their eyes as they come towards me. I knew not to run because that just clicks the hunter in them and makes them want to chase you even more. I had no more stakes because I didn't expect to be ambushed right when I got to the drakes. What was I thinking?
They kept moving closer the only protection that I got was Isabeau who a hound (long story tell you later.)
"hunter!" Isabeau passed me a sword right after punching a vamp. Then stabbing him right through the heart. I swung and sliced its head off. Know they were pissed and used there vampire speed so to me and Kieran they are just a bunch of colors.
"shit." I cursed as one of them nearly broke his arm. Again. I found a stake on the ground next to me and threw it at a vampire nearly about to cut Liam (Quinn's dad.) throat out. He shot a grateful look my way before going back to fighting with his hel-blar. I looked around to see Quinn dealing with 3 hel-blars and as usual he's having fun. Until he gets killed. I run to his side and back flip to his side. "Damn it Quinn! Will you ever figure out that this isn't fun?" I said as I stab another hel-blar and he goes to ashes.
He grins and say. "never." I groan and stab another as he just plays with the hel-blar who is getting really pissed . Quinn obviously doesn't care. Until the hel-blar gets tired of it turns to me one second he's just smiling at me and next he's behind h holding a knife to my throat. That got Quinn to stop and growl. "one more move and she dies." The hel-blar says. The rest of the drakes stop what they're doing and look at the hel-blar with hate and rage in their eyes. Quinn just stares at him with concern for me and hate for him.
"QUINN! Just stake his sorry ass." I say when no one moves.
"no." Is all he says.
"and why not." I ask.
He looks at me like I'm and idiot then says. "because he'll kill you."
"So? Just grab a stake a push it through his fucking heart!" I bark at him. the hel-blar pulls the knife harder on me. I wince. When I'm sure that Quinn's not going to do anything I groan then grab his arm and flip him right over. Than grab his stake and dust him. everyone else did the same and we were finally alone. I turn to look at Quinn whose face was blank.
"what the hell Quinn? Why didn't you just stake him right then and there?" I say as a rub dust off my clothes.
"because I wasn't just going to let him kill you!" I he shot back.
"thank you. But I don't care! Just kill him I can handle myself."
He snorted. "yeah I can tell."
I roll my eyes and say "whatever." Then I turn to everyone else who was staring at us. "um hi." I say with an innocent smile. They start to laugh and Isabeau runs over and gives he a hug. So does Logan but the rest I didn't really know. They all went inside except Quinn.
"I feel like home already. I loved the welcoming committee." I said to him with a wink. It's summer vacation, and my grandfather has kicked me out because I was dating Quinn so I had no place to go until he said that I could stay at his place. He sighed and walked to me.
"glad you liked it. But it's never going to happen again."
I raised an eyebrow "do you even know me?"
"yes I do. And that's what scares me." he said laughing.
"wow. I scare the great Quinn Drake! Damn I'm good." I said leaning against the car I pull Quinn toward me and kiss him. His mouth was like ice-cream against my lips. Cold and delicious, he raped his arms around my waist holding me tight against him. his tongue touched mine lightly then it grew deeper. I hooked my fingers into the waist band of his boxers and he moaned. I pulled away and opened my car door.
"come on! I haven't seen you in a week and that's all I get?" he whined.
I shot him a glare then said "maybe you'll get more. It just depends on which room I get." I winked at him. he grinned mischievously. I rolled my eyes then said "I was kidding."
"I wasn't" he said then I tossed him my bag which I have to admit it didn't have much but he stumbled a little bit. I guess I threw it to hard.
We turned towards the house only for me to be trampled by Lucy. "OMG! Hunter! I missed you! It's going to be so much fun! Like a big sleep over!" lucy started babbling like always.
"I like it already." Quinn said smirking. I rolled my eyes but couldn't stop the grin that came with it. Never as a kid have I had a real sleepover. I have always home schooled from my grandpa or at helios-rah so I guess you could call having a roommate like a sleepover but I never thought of it like that.
"sorry Quinn but you're going to have to miss the pillow fight." Lucy said rolling her eyes. Isabeau laughed, logan came and put his arm over her shoulders.
"so hunter you're going to be staying in the extra guest room next to mine and Quinn's. So don't get any ideas cause I will be right next door!" this time I rolled my eyes and Quinn laughed.
"what about Isabeau?"
"oh she stays with logan in his room. Since she's already a vampire there's no temptation of blood." Lucy answered looking sad because her and Nicholas can't really be together.
"I turned to isabeau and pursed my lips then said "well that must… fun." With my eyebrow raised lucy smirked.
They blushed-if a vampire could blush- then logan said "don't act like you two are so innocent I know for a fact that you and Quinn make out every chance you get." Lucy laughed then he added "you too! Don't think I didn't hear your heart speed up when you and Nicholas were alone." Lucy's face went red I just shrugged.
"well just for that me and hunter are going to take isabeau." Lucy stuck out her tongue then grabbed us. Dragging us down the hall I say "hold on one sec." I run to Quinn and take my bag back then say. "don't you looking at what I have in here some aren't so PG." I wink and smirk as he stares wide eyed at me. I was at the end of the hall when I hear logan say "hot." And Quinn growl.
Lucy brings me to her room after isabeau decides to go back to the caves. But anyways I walk into her room and its very …girly being an understatement. Pink walls, bed spread, dresser, couch with fluffy rainbow colored pillows. Lucy saw my reaction and frowned "I know it's girly but I hey that just me." She shrugged and then sat down on her bed and patted the bed motioning me to sit.
"how long have you and Nicholas known each other?" I ask.
"since we were kids. We always used to drive each other crazy. I mean we still do but I love him now. You probably understand what I mean right? You love Quinn don't you?"
I squirmed uncomfortably "well no but I'm only 18. I have the rest of my life to figure it out. Why try now you know? It's not like I'm going to be with Quinn forever."
"then why try? If you know that it's not going to last."
I sighed. "everyone has a boyfriend were they know it's not gona last but you still do it anyways. I guess this is just that."
"so you don't want to be with Quinn forever. You don't think that you guys have a shot."
"well we could. But Quinn's just not that kinda guy. Yea he's sweet-when he wants to be- sometimes I just can't see us like that."
"but you like him like a lot?"
I smile then say "yeah, yeah I do."
"you don't believe in love do you?"
"you want me to tell you the truth?" she nodded "no I honestly don't."
"why? Haven't you ever seen someone in love before?"
"I thought I did once" she looked confused so I elaborated "my parents. They died fighting vampires. Not that I hold anything on the drakes for being vampires or anything. They loved each other so much –or so I thought- but then they started fighting and eventually they got divorced and my dad went on a suicide mission then my mom got ambushed at the school."
"how old were you?" lucy whispered.
"5. Since then my grandpa took me in."
"oh. I'm so sorry."
"it's ok. It was a long time ago. Anyways where's solange?"
"she's in the shed making pots."
"she makes pots?"
"yeah it's kind of her .. hobby."
"mhmm. So what's your hobby?"
"shopping." She winked. Then added and yours?"
"besides hunting vampires?" we both laughed. "well I love a good shopping trip but mostly just kicking ass." This time I winked.
Chapter 2
Quinn POV.
Me and logan were listening the whole time thinking we were going to hear giggling and boy talk but instead I heard something I'm not sure I wanted to hear.
"how do you feel about that, bro?" logan said once they were done talking about hunter and onto shopping and stuff.
"honestly, I'm not sure."
"what are you going to do about it? Like seriously man how do you feel about her?"
"I don't know! Every things just so complicated! Ugh! Now I sound like a girl."
"ok dude, we all know you're really into hunter. But you need to make the decision. Either you stay with her but by what I heard her saying it won't be that long. Or you could break up with her which again she said you guys are going to do some day but by the way that you look at her- I can tell you really like her and she does the same with you- I'm not sure you would be able to do that. So there's also another choice. You turn her."
I looked at him wide eyed was he joking! "she's a helios-ra for god's sake! Do you think she would really do that!"
"well that tells me something."
"what?"
"that you care enough to at least be thinking it."
"Well of course I care but still! Damn " I laughed hollowly "Nicholas must be going crazy. I thought I had it hard."
"with what your life was the easiest, You hit on girls drink blood and sleep! But now you care about someone that doesn't make it hard. It makes life worth living." Logan smiled then added "you know your never gona live this down right?"
I sighed "yep."
He laughed and we walked down stairs and right when I sat down Connor started cracking up. Me and Connor are twins so being as were both vampire's we have a connection so he practically knows everything I do.
"shut up." I growl.
"no let's hear it Conner." Nicholas says.
"dude." Wipes the tears from his face while saying that to me. "I they did tell love was going to bite you in the ass. And from what I know its biting hard."
I growl "I don't love her." I say half heartedly
"oh sure." Conner says everyone else was laughing and holding their sides.
"dude come on we've been there. Well some of us has." Nicholas motioned to him, logan and connor who was with christabel.
"whatever. When did life get so hard?"
"since you started actually committing instead of picking up girls left and right."
"I guess. Whatever." Just then lucy walks in with solange. "hey lucy."
"hey guys. Me and solange are going to watch something. "Wana join?" We all shrugged or nodded. "kay."
"love on the run?" lucy asks they all groan "guess not."
It took about 10 minutes until they finally agreed on something. Well mostly the girls were tired and decided to put on buffy the vampire slayer. Ha! How ironic.
Half way into it hunter comes in with only one of those workout sports bras and short shorts. I like it. At first we didn't notice her coming in at first we thought she was crazy when she burst out laughing until we remembered what we were watching and then we joined her laughing.
She shook her head "I thought you guys were different." Every one of my brothers noticed what she was wearing and whistled I growled and lucy practically hissed and punched nicholas in the chest. She rolled her eyes and started to walk away. Until solange asked "where are you going dressed like that? I'm pretty sure it's not the mall."
She laughed then said "to train what else would I be doing at 1 in the morning?" she acted like this was all normal. Which to her it was but to them, nope.
Solange looked so confused but instead lucy talked (big shock)
"yeah about that what are you doing up? Your human?"
She laughed "thanks for noticing and by the way so are you. But in helios-ra we work on vampire time since you know sunlight" she smiled god I loved that smile and she looked really damn sexy in her little uniform.
"ohhh that must come in handy."
"yeah I guess. Hey you wana train with me?"
She brightened at that then squealed getting up and jumping up and down shouting "YES! YES!"
"alright what about you solange?"
"awesome! I can't wait to beat your asses!" solange said to us.
"will there be hair pulling?" hunter shook her head. "damn. Well I'm coming anyways."
"me too." Nicholas says then all my brothers get up.
"wait a minute. All of you are coming?" hunter says
We all nodded "um yeah there's nothing really to see." She adds.
"oh I beg to differ." I say looking at her outfit again.
"mhmm." She pursed her lips "may I ask why?"
"because what if you attacked by hel-blar?"
"then I got a stakes."
"where?" I ask.
She pats her thigh and says "right here. Plus I'm going out to my car to get some more for practice shots."
"ok first hot. And second were still coming with." Marcus says.
"ok first just because your letting me stay here doesn't mean I won't go lucy on you and break your nose for looking at me like that. And second you guys are not coming because Quinn already told me about lucy's almost little incident with marcus last time so no." damn she had a point.
We all backed down even marcus looked a little scared at her threat. I would be too.
She smirked and lucy just stared wide eyed at the win. "come on. Oh and guys you should be scared because soon every girl in this house will be able to beat your ass." She winked at me then left. I laughed they whistled.
"why Quinn? It's always Quinn! Damn she's hot did you see those shorts?" sebastion say. And he never says anything. I growl. Then he adds "oh come on you can't say you weren't thinking the same thing!"
"oh I definitely was but she's my girlfriend I'm allowed to."
"whatever dude she's hot. No wonder you're in love with her."
"will you stop with that."
He smirks at me "never."
