The sun had gone down, as Lily walked she kept looking over her shoulder. The quite made her more nervous. She was in a daze, her body was on auto drive. She felt is she stopped she would fall over. Turning the flash light on to make her way around the tomb stones. Bevis 1969-1992, Lily stopped, trying to clam her self. Her heart pounded and her breath was short. She looked around listening, " hello, " her tongue was thick and it was hard to shallow. "Paige, " the flash light dance through the trees.
"No, dogs, " a British accent broke the silence. Lily spin around almost falling.
"Brave lass, " the red hair standing next to Paige laughed. Lily took a step back, she walked into a tall blonde, "she sure smells like them." Their laughter filled the air. Lily had to fight anything in her to run.
"I," Lily voice shook, "Mrs. McMahon said you might know."
"I know all kind of things," Paige mocked. "I know Hayman would pay good money for you." She was in Lily's face, "image what that would do to poor, poor Roman." Her lip turned down.
"This was a mistake," turning to run, Lily felt a tight grip on her arms. Pain ripped through her, she couldn't keep from screaming. Which only made them laugh more. Through tear filled eyes Lily could see fangs, "stop," the more she moved the deeper her nails dug into her.
"Oh, I think you are hurting her Charlotte, " the red hair laughed.
"Wonder if she taste like them," Lily felt her head being yanked to the side. All she could do she close her eyes, and hope it would be over soon. "What the, " the pressure was off of her. As she opened her eyes she saw Charlotte coming to her feet.
"Guess someone learned a few tricks, " a slows clap came from Paige.
"Fucking blood suckers!"
"Colby," a wave of relief came over Lily. He walked next to her, keeping his eyes in the three women. They all muttered backing away.
"She came to us," Paige raised an eyebrow.
"Find out what you need Lily," a snarl came from Colby, " Paige will be more than happy to tell you."
"He wants her to breed," there was a hint of defeat in Paige's voice. "To bring back fighting."
"What is he," making sure she was close to Colby, Lily finally found her voice again.
"The devil," the red hair replied.
"Hayman has stolen something from all of us, " Paige cast a look to the red hair. "That little shit Bo, has figured out how to steal powers. Hayman been training Lesnar, giving him, " her hands laced in the red heads. "Becky got away."
"What he do to you, " Colby questioned.
"Bo, did this freezing, " Becky's looked away, "I could read thoughts." There was more to the story, and no one wanted to hear it.
"Than he can have mine, " if that was what he wanted Lily would gladly give them to him. " I don't even know what do to with them."
"You are strong, you don't know it. But if Hayman can breed Lesnar bring back the fights. He can sale little Lily, Lesnar's. That why Linda McMahon sent you away. She knew even though trading was banned. "
"But don't the McMahon's have to allow fighting again, " Colby asked.
"That daughter will do it in a second. Old man McMahon won't rule forever." Charlotte spoke up.
"Good money in fighting, " Paige laughed, "not like we can get nine to fives."
"We need to get back, " Colby tugged Lily shirt. At the moment Lily would rather stay in a cemetery with three vampires, than face Joe. But there were no answers here. Lily had read that vampires were aloof. While they kept a human form, their was no soul, no empathy. And unlike Lily and Colby they were not born vampire. They were made as they called it. So they remembered a different life. Although Lily was not raise a witch, she had always knew she was different. It was truly who she was. And she really didn't have to leave a life behind, like they did. They had memories of what it was like to be normal.
"How mad is he," Lily tried to prepare herself.
"I am not sure if he is even home, he went out running, " maybe it wasn't his anger Lily didn't want to face. Maybe it was his grief, and knowing she caused it.
"I just thought." Her actions were careless. Lily had never delt with vampires, only read about them. Again she had saved herself with dumb luck.
"We will get through this, " that was what you are sopost to say.
"This isn't your fight," as if giving him permission to back out.
"It is," Colby looked at Lily, " Joe will not least, now more than ever with out you. "
"I am not worth it."
"Hayman has no respect, he has no regard for any life. We are not to be brought and sold." Lily fought tears, she felt hopeless. Everyone told her she had great power. A power she couldn't control. And no one to help her. "Look no you are not a wolf, but you are one of us. We are a pack, we don't leave anyone." He squeezed her hand, " Jonathan went back to the twins, someone somewhere will help us. Once people find out what Hayman is up to." He eyes cast down to her arm, the blood had dried. "You ok?"
"I don't know what I was thinking, " she was beginning to realize how dangerous what she had done was. "How did you know where I was?"
"Sniffed you out, " Colby smiled.
"Thank you, God they were like dealing with mean girls, that tried to eat me," they both laughed.
"Vampires are not known for being nice, " they both looked toward the house Lily and Jo shared. "Just know he loves you."
Lily heard the shower, she sat in there bed. She didn't know what to expect, he had been so broken at his parents. It killed her, he was strong a natural leader. You could see it when you looked at him, and to see him weep and cry the way he did. Lily was sure that would be replaced by rage. He walked out holding a towel around his hips. Lily just watched as he walked over to her. He lifted her arm, "they bite you?"
"No," she keep her eyes low. "I am sorry."
"What were you thinking, " his voice wasn't angery it was sad.
"I just, I feel so helpless you have to hate me at now. I am the reason, " Joe knelt in front of her.
"No," his hands went to the side of her face, "you didn't cause that," tears rolled out the side of his eyes. "I can't lose you too."
"But I can't let everyone die for me, again," placing her hands over his, she lean forward resting her forehead again his. "I am so sorry. I just want someone to tell me who I am." She felt so selfish now.
"You," Joe stood, sitting next to her, "you are mine. And one day you will be my wife, and mother to my children. You are what keeps me, me." Lily remembered the conversation she had with his mother. They more than any needed balance. "And Hayman is not taking that for me. I wouldn't be honoring my family if I let him. I will do anything to keep you safe. We," waving his index finger between them, " will figure out your family. But it will be together, please don't do that again."
"I am so sorry," she was sorry for his family, sorry she couldn't help, and sorry he was brought in to this. He wrapped his arms around her. They both cried, there was nothing else to do. And it felt like they needed to get that out before they could move on. There wouldn't be a funeral, no calls made. His family was just gone. Joe's phone rang, he pulled himself away, "yeah, " Lily say up wiping her face watching him. "Slow down , I can't," Joe was up looking for his clothes. Lily could hear muffled yelling, "John, what," Joe pulled a shirt over his head. "Ok, we are coming," Lily knew Joe would not leaving her alone. She started to follow Joe. Jonathan voice still screamed through the phone, "They were, " Lily tried to make out what he was yelling. "This is bad, I don't know, " Joe had keys in his hand, " happened so fast."
"We are coming, have Colby meet us there, " Joe hung up. "Lesnar." Lily eyes widened.
"The twins it is bad, " The only thing that was becoming constant in their lives was the horror Lesnar was bringing. Lily was beginning to wonder how long they could keep up.
