Duncan (POV)
I was watching TV with my other brothers and Solange. When suddenly I smelled something unfamiliar I knew it was a human. Its probably Lucy's cousin.
"Hey guys I think Alex is coming" I said to my brothers
They kind of looked worried to meet her I got to say I am to.
Then I heard someone walking up the stairs. I saw the door knob turn and Lucy came in, but just her by herself. Then I saw her grab a hand and pull them in but it looked liked she didn't want to come in. then the must funniest thing happen when Lucy pulled her she fell and Lucy dragged her in without letting her get up. Lucy dragged her in the middle of the living room and she got up quickly when she realized we were all watching her. We started to laugh, but she shot us a glare that shut us all up.
When I finally gat control of myself I noticed this girl was beautiful. She had these eyes that are as blue as ocean water. Her brown wavy her was perfect on her. I couldn't stop looking at her. I think Sebastian noticed me looking at her and he hit me in the stomach. That got me out of it.
"Dude you're drooling it's gross" said Sebastian
That got me embarrassed. She was just looking at me if I was weird. I mentally slapped myself HARD.
" Okay guys this is Alex" said Lucy, " Alex they are Logan, his girlfriend Isabeu, Quinn, his girlfriend Hunter, Connor, Marcus, Sebastian, Duncan, and Nicholas.
" So you're the famous Nicholas, my cousin Lucy's boyfriend" she said
" yeah" said Nicholas
"I'm going to say this once you break her heart I break your face, got that?" she warned. I got to admit she is scary.
I just Nicholas paled. Then she just smiled.
" I'm just playing with you lighten up boy" she said. After that everybody stared laughing, but not Nicholas.
" Come Nicky she just likes messing with people, and pulling pranks." said Lucy still laughing
"If that's true then your noting like I expected, Alex" said Quinn
" What did you expect a girl that is always serious, never does anything for fun, and always wears her uniform?" said Alex
" yeah kind of" said Connor
" well your half wrong, I sometimes am serious, and sometimes I do wear my uniform." she said
" oh, so that means I'm half right. Go me half a point!" said Connor
" Okay so what made you leave the base other than the tournament." said Solange
" oh well they are not letting me get back until I get better from my injury." she said a little embarrassed.
" What injury? You didn't tell me anything about a injury" said Lucy worried
" Relax it's just a little wound nothing big everybody is just over reacting" said Alex
" oh yeah let me see it" said Lucy
Alex looked a little embarrassed.
"I'm not showing it in front of everybody its in my stomach." said Alex
" I don't care I just want to see it come on" said Lucy with puppy dog eyes.
"Fine, but you owe me" she said knowing she wouldn't win the argument.
She lifted up her shirt showing her stomach. What we saw made us all gasped. There were two lines that looked that they were freshly stitched maybe even today. They look that they were made my a knife.
"I thought you said it was no big deal" Said Lucy a little mad
" this is why I didn't want to show you" said Alex
" I thought woman couldn't fight hand to hand combat" I said
" Well supposedly I was so good that they wanted me to fight" Said Alex unconvinced
" Well you are awesome but this is ridicules" said Lucy
" Can we talk about something else please I don't like talking about how I gat to fight" said Alex a little hopeful
" fine" was all Lucy could say
" okay how about the reason why you guys think a girl cant fight" said Alex raising a eyebrow
"WHAT!" said Hunter and Isabeu at the same time.
Damn this girl is good at making other people in trouble.
Solange, Lucy, and, Alex were laughing their guts out they were just rolling on the floor laughing. Alex's laugh was music to my ears. Why did Lucy have to have such a hot Cousin.
Alex (POV)
Lucy was right they were all hot. But the one that caught my intention the most was Duncan. His eyes looked pale. His features made him look like a nice guy. But what am I thinking I can't be looking at a guy who would never look at me. Even though I look at him all I thought he was hot and that was it nothing more.
"good job girl" mouthed Duncan to me it looked like he wanted to laugh at his younger brothers.
That's when I got up and whistled really loud to get everybody's attention. They all looked at me.
"girls why don't we show them how we can really fight" I said with a mischievous smile.
They smiled at me and nodded. I swear the boys got really pale.
But when we were about to do our girl rampaged a phone rang. It was Sebastian's phone he answered it and he looked dangerous. He hung up and his fists were clenched like really tight.
" They're coming this way guys lets get outside and ready to fight." with that all the boys hurried outside.
"what is going on?" I said confused
" stay here, all three of you, got that?" said Nicholas before he left
" I'm so confused right now." I said
Then I heard hissing, yelling, and snapping. I ran to the door to see what was happening, but Lucy stopped me before I could get to the window. She pointed to herself as in saying me first so I let her go first. When I got to the window I saw a lot of fighting. Quinn seem to be having a great time, but it didn't look fun. Then a hand out of know where came and grabbed my arm. He yanked me outside. Lucy tried to help me, but she was just thorn to the side. Solange was hiding somewhere, but I was glad she was safe.
He then held a knife to my neck and he hold me close to him.
" Hey Drakes missing something" he yelled and got all of the drakes' attention.
"Alex!" yelled Duncan, " let her go!"
" give me Solange first" he said
" You can forget that!" I yelled
" shut up you human or I'll rip your throat out" he said
" don't talk to her like that you stupid vampire" said Hunter
" wait vampire!" I yelled
" Finally you get it worthless human" he yelled
" that's is what do I have to do to kill this guy!" I yelled he just held the knife closer
" stab him in the heart!" yelled Hunter
I smiled, then I hit his groin with the back of my foot he remove the knife from my neck and stepped back. He was about to grab me again but kicked him in the face causing him to fall back. I used this chance to grab his own knife one stab him in the heart. He then turned to ash. I got up from my knees and couldn't believe I just killed a vampire.
" Wow" said Quinn they all looked shocked
" Believe me now that I'm a fighter" I said smiling
" Yeah but even if you are a fighter, it takes years to know how to kill one" said Sebastian
"Boys are you o-" A woman was caught off because she saw me with a knife in my hand.
"Who are you?" she said
" I'm Alex Lucy's cousin" I said nervously
" I'm Helena Drake and this is my husband Liam Drake" she said
" I'm guessing you know what we are" Liam said
" Yes I know" I said emotionless
" Right away when she found out who was keeping her hostage she just stacked him with no problem." said Connor
" Is that sot, then you must be a great fighter" said Helena looking pleased
" yeah, but why are they after you?" I said
"Solange is the only vampire girl ever born not made, so the prophecy says that she is supposed to be queen, but it didn't go that way I turned queen when I killed the last queen, Lady Natasha" said Helena
"Oh" I said kind of shocked.
" You don't have to worry we won't do anything to you" said Liam
"It's not that it's the whole situation it is to much for me to observe." I said
" Your not scared are you?" said Quinn smiling
" Quinn I have stabbed, shot, hold hostage do you think I'm scared now" I said
"Wow all those things and you're still in the military tough girl" Said Quinn
"Okay where's Lucy?" said Nicholas
"Oh my God, Lucy!" I ran inside to check if she was alright
I ran inside only to see that Solange was helping Lucy get up it looked like she hit her head. I ran up to them to help steady Lucy.
"Lucy, are you okay does it hurt?" I asked
"I'm fine stupid vampire pushed me made me hit my head on the wall" She said more angry.
"Don't worry, Luce, Miss military here staked him" said Connor
"It's all in the days work" I said smiling
"Lucy, Alex where will you be staying?" Helena asked
I looked at Lucy for an answer, she just looked at blankly.
"We don't know is it safe for us to leave?" Asked Lucy
"Where are your parents Lucy?" asked Liam
" They are not in town remember they are at that convention" said Lucy
" Then you will be staying here you two you will not be alone, not with vampire activity picking up" Said Helena
" Okay" Lucy and I said at the same time
" okay get your bags and go to sleep it is pretty late" said Liam mostly to me
With that Lucy pulled me to her car to get my bags. I only brought two bags since you can't really bring anything to the military. Most of my clothes were a big no to Lucy.
"we need to go shopping and you have no chose" she said
We walked in back to the house where some of the boys were sitting watching TV. We walked up to guest room and put the bags on the bed. I put on my red nightgown that looked more of a dress over my sleeping shorts the nightgown went to my knees. Lucy went somewhere else, but laid on the bed and went to sleep.
Duncan (POV)
Lucy got out of the Guest room and sat next to Nicholas who put an arm around her.
"weren't you supposed to go to sleep" Said Nicholas
"No remember I changed to your sleeping patterns" said Lucy. It did happen she wanted to spent more time with us so she changed sleeping patterns. If only it were like that with Alex we could've spent more time together. Wait what am I thinking. I mentally slapped myself again.
" Duncan" said Lucy
" yes?" I said
"When are you doing to talk to my cousin it was so obious you were looking at her" she said, everybody else wanted to laugh at me.
" I wasn't looking at her" I said
" Yeah you were, bro you were also drooling" said Sabsahtian
"fine I will talk to her, just stop laughing" I said
"good" said Lucy
This Is going to be a interesting visit time for Alex.
