Bound By Knots: Chapter 1
MPOV
I sat next to Ash on the love seat, holding his hand. Across from us sat Rowan, Jade, Kestrel and Mark.
I squeezed Ash's hand tighter. We were about to tell them the latest news, me and Ash would tell my parents later.
Ash looked over and gave me a small smile. It didn't reach his eyes. I knew he was either as worried or more worried then I was.
"So?" Kestrel said in an annoyed voice. Rowan looked at me with a worried expression. Mark and Jade were too involved with themselves.
"I'm…" I started but couldn't finish.
"Mary-Lynette is pregnant." Ash said in a quiet but strong voice.
All three of the vampires shot their heads towards us. Dead silence.
"What?" Mark said, probably didn't hear.
Jade looked happy but like she would murder Ash. Rowan had her hand over her mouth and looked shocked and rather disappointed. Kestrel looked shocked and then went back to a normal face.
"Well this should be interesting." She said sitting back.
"What? What happened?" Mark said looking at all of us.
Jade turned to see his face, got off his lap and stood up.
"Mark, she's pregnant." She said gently.
Marks face was frozen in shock then rage built through it.
"WHAT?" He said jumping up, Jade moved out of the way. Ash stood up also.
"I TRUSTED YOU WITH MY SISTER! YOU.. YOU… !" Mark ran over and punched Ash in the face. Ash made no move to stop him, blood leaked out of his nose.
I burst into tears and stood up before Mark could land another punch. "Stop!"
Mark dropped his fist and looked into my eyes. His voice was almost a whisper and full of disgust.
"I don't know who you are anymore. You can't possibly be my sister."
"I.. I.," I stammered. Mark walked to the front door. I rushed over and grabbed his arm, "Mark, please. Please don't leave me. I need you." I cried. He didn't even turn around.
"I don't know you." With that he yanked his arm out of my hands and opened the door. Slamming it in my face. Leaving me.
I fell on the my knees with my face in my hands. Someone opened the door and ran out, someone went up the stairs.
Then someone picked me up and sat me in their lap on the couch, Ash. The other vampire, I was guessing Rowan held Ash's hand which was on my back and placed her head on my shoulder.
I fell asleep crying.
