I waited for what seemed like an eternity. When Elizabeth and Henry decided it was time to stop running, they set me down. Henry had an iron grip on my arm, though. Obviously they thought I was stupid enough to run.
"You can let go of me." I mumbled, looking at my feet.
"What?" Elizabeth asked, turning to me. "Do you think we're just going to let go of you?"
"I can't outrun you. I've tried to fight against a hungry vampire before. I nearly died before I was even bit." I sat down, tears still running down my face. They had come for me that time. That time they cared.
"That is true, but how do we know your boyfriend isn't going to come save you?" Elizabeth asked.
"Its fiancé and they stopped coming after me a long time ago." My tears were not only those of sadness, but also those of rage. The kind that come when you feel betrayed.
"They must not want you then." Said Henry, rudely toying with my feelings.
"Shut up!" I yelled. They both had a startled look, and then were strangely pleased. I didn't care how they felt. If they were going to bite me, I should be able to scream at them.
"Nice Henry, her blood is pumping so much faster now." Elizabeth stuck her nose in the air and sniffed.
So that was why they have been torturing me. They wanted my blood to pump faster. And they got what they wanted. I could feel it all throughout my body. If I were a werewolf, I would be tingling so badly right now. "Look, if you're going to bite me, get it over with." I practically screamed at them. If Edward wasn't coming for me, why do I need to live?
"Well, if you say so." Henry turned and started slowly coming towards me. Elizabeth was coming from the other direction. I heard a rustling in the forest, but it looked like it had been a fox or something.
Henry leaned in, inches away from my neck, when something jumped out of the woods and attacked him.
