Chapter One
Erik night had been staring at the blank computer screen for what seemed like hours. He needed to do a Sociology essay which was due tomorrow and he had still not written one word. Try as he might, the fledgling could not get Zoey out of his head. He had not meant to be paranoid about Loren Blake. He felt that he was not being unreasonable when he had asked Zoey if there was anything going on with them. It had to be said, the man was very charming and extremely handsome. Pretty much every female fledgling plus vampyre at the school were pulled in by his dreamy looks and poetry skills.
The argument between Erik and Zoey had escalated from a calm, slightly irate Erik asking if Zoey and Loren had maybe being getting a little too friendly, to a shouting match which ending in a extremely angry Zoey slapping Erik and storming off. Erik cared for Zoey, that was obvious and he had no intention in upsetting her when he asked the question. He just wanted to know! He was brought back to the computer screen at the gentle buzzing of his phone. He hoped it was a message from Zoey although he knew it wouldn't be.
Zoey seems Pissed Erik!
She went off campus to meet that
Heath dude. U didn't hear it from me.
Xxx
It was from Jack. Bless him, Erik thought, he was such a good friend. So Zoey is meeting Heath. Another man that Erik was wary of. With is cute boy charm and big brown eyes he was a girl's dream boyfriend.
"Don't seem to be doing much work, Erik."
A soft, familiar voice said.
Erik turned around to see the thick, perfect blonde hair that framed the heart shaped face of Erik's ex-girlfriend Aphrodite.
"Shut up Aphrodite. I'm not in the mood for your crap right now' Erik muttered moodily. He had far to much on his mind to deal with the bitchy Aphrodite's rude comments.
"Ok, Ok. So I heard you and Zoey had a bust up. I'm sorry about that Erik." Her perfectly plucked eyebrows raised to show her concern. This was unlike Aphrodite, Erik thought. He didn't trust her.
"Yeah alright. Your not sorry Aphrodite, don't bother trying to pretend you are." He said sternly, concentrating his gaze on his non-existent essay.
"I am sorry Erik! I know how tough relationships are. Remember all the arguments we used to have? You think I don't know how hard it can be?" She said, pulling a chair from a nearby table and sat next to Erik at the computer desk. She put manicured hands on the desk and slowly reached over to Erik's shaking hand and softly rubbed it.
Erik pulled his hand away from her touch.
"Fine. I was only trying to comfort you Erik." She said, pulling away looking offended.
Erik felt slightly guilty. Ok, she had been a bit of a...slut before, but she was only trying to be nice to him.
"Sorry Aphrodite, I'm just a little on edge. I feel bad about Zoey. I guess I am paranoid..." Erik said, wiping his eyes.
"It's ok Erik. I understand." She said gently, putting her hand on his muscular shoulder. "You weren't being paranoid Erik, it's understandable for you to be a little, cautious. I mean look at him! The man is gorgeous!" Aphrodite said, smiling showing her pearly white, straight teeth.
Erik frowned and looked at her.
"Not helping." He said, putting his hand on his forehead.
"Sorry." Aphrodite chuckled. "But she acted stupidly. And running off to that Heath guy straight after you guys have a fight? Slutty or what..."
"I guess it is a bit...slutty of her. But it's not like there gonna do anything is it! Oh god. Why are relationships so god damn confusing!" Erik cried in distress.
"Totally. And you don't know Erik, isn't she imprinted with that dude? And you know how it is with being imprinted, the blood lust is...uncontrollable!" She said, smiling sexily at him.
"How do you know what it's like to be imprinted? You never have..." He said, looking into her flawless eyes. She was gorgeous, he though to himself, stunning even.
"I don't know what it's like to be imprinted, but I do know what it's like to lust after someone..." She spoke seductively and leant forward giving Erik a full view off her cleavage.
"Aphrodite, stop it. I..I know what your getting at.." Erik said, half wanting her to ignore his requests and carry on leaning forward until- NO! Stop thinking like this! Whilst he fought a mental battle in his head, Aphrodite, blissfully unaware of the feelings rushing through his mind, his body continued to flirt with Erik.
"Remember how good it was? Remember Erik?"
He remembered. He didn't want to remember but he couldn't help it. She was right, it was incredible.
He was entranced by her, he sat still on the chair and watched as she ran a finger through her golden locks and fluttered her long eyelashes and him. She purposely lowered her top so he could barely contain himself and spread her legs slightly giving him a view off her toned, tan legs.
"Don't you just want to do it again? Just once? Here right now, we could baby. I could lock the doors. No one could come in, we would be completely alone. Just me and you alone, for HOURS..." She purred slowly. Erik still in a trance said nothing. Aphrodite slid her arm up Erik's thigh steadily and sexily. Erik fought against his body, trying not to let himself give in to her intentions however he found it impossible.
"Come on Erik, honey. You clearly want to..." She said, smiling and shifting her eyes down his hardened body.
Erik blushed red. He didn't want Aphrodite to get the wrong idea about what he wanted from her.
Or did he?
Aphrodite moved her body like a panther, getting up from her chair and standing in front of Erik as graceful as a ballet dancer. She straddled him and their mouths met. She moved her lips hungrily, using her tongue to explore every crevice of his awaiting mouth. She caressed his tongue with hers and as she kissed him she rubbed her hand over his upper thighs, making him moan softly.
Erik's body was quivering with her touch and as Aphrodite grabbed his arm and pulled him onto the floor his pulse was racing. He wanted more, He needed more. And he needed it now.
Aphrodite unbuttoned his shirt revealing his toned chest. She used her nail to make a smooth, scarlet incision from the cleft of his shoulder down to the brim of his pants. She began at his shoulder, gently sucking the cut and tasting him. Erik was trembling at this point both with desire and pleasure. When she reached the top of his pants, she gently slid them down and began to use her mouth to give him even more pleasure.
Erik was panting and clenching his fist has his body tensed with extreme pleasures and sensations. He cried out in ecstasy and closed his eyes and breathed. A sudden image of Zoey came into his head. He heard her laugh, the way her eyes sparkled when she smiled. Her gorgeous brunette hair and how it glistened in the sun. Erik suddenly wondered what he was doing. He loved Zoey!
"Come on baby. I want you so bad..." Aphrodite said to him, straddling him. She was seconds away from being completely naked when Erik shouted out.
"NO! No Aphrodite, don't take them off. Were not going to have sex, it's wrong. I love Zoey!" He said, getting up and putting on his clothes in a hurry.
Aphrodite's face darkened her sky blue eyes turned stormy.
"What? You love her?" She shouted.
"Yes. I'm sorry Aphrodite, it just can't happen. I need to go now. Bye" He leant forward and kissed her innocently on the cheek but Aphrodite wasn't satisfied. She turned round so he was kissing her on the mouth. He tried to pull away put she put her hand round the back of his neck and viciously kissed him. He finally broke free and looked angrily at her.
"I said NO Aphrodite!" And he pushed passed her, unlocked the door and left Aphrodite standing alone, in her underwear cussing under breath.
Erik rushed into the dorm room in a state.
"What's the matter Erik? You don't look too good..." Jack said concerned when Erik entered the room.
Erik began to search underneath his bed hurrying.
"I'm fine, I just-Ah! There they are!" He said, pulling out a small box, a big box of chocolates in a heart shape and a teddy bear holding a heart shaped cushion reading 'I love you Zoey'.
"What...Are they for?" Jack asked, pointing to the presents in Erik's hands.
"They were for valentines day, but I need to give them to Zoey now. Do you have any idea where she could be with that Heath kid? Any idea at all?" He asked jack.
"No, sorry Erik. I didn't think to ask. Why do you need to find her?" Jack asked, going to sit on his bed.
"Because...Because...I need to apologise to her. I did something bad and I just want to say sorry as quickly as possible really. I'm gonna go look for her Jack. See you later on." Erik put the presents in a bag and ran to the door.
"But Erik! It's 4 am! It's too late too go off campus now. And anyway, it's absolutely pouring with rain out there!" Jack said, pointing to the window where rain came down in buckets.
"I don't care Jack, I'll have to get in trouble. I need to find Zoey."
And with that Erik left the dorm and left the House Of Night.
He had no idea where to look for Zoey so he ran around the town, desperately wanting to find her. He was soaking wet and very cold and had still no idea where she could be.
"I have to find her!" He said to himself.
Whilst Erik was running all over town in the pouring rain looking for his beloved girlfriend, his beloved girlfriend herself was tucked up all warm and cozy in bed.
In the bed of her imprinted human boyfriend, Heath Luck.
DUN DUN DUNNNNNN. Intense huh?
Hehe, woah. What a slut zoey is right? ;)
Anywaysss, I kinda have a few more ideas about where this story is gonna go, and im thinking it's gonna be like, 4/5 chapters long. But knowing me, I'll say that and it'll end up like 100 chapters long;) LOL. Well, maybe not that long but you get the idea;)
