(I know I hate when people change the pov on me too but I'm hoping it would be just this once with this story….in this little part of the chapter…hopefully…ok? I don't own the covenant. If I did we would be in a Jacuzzi with them sipping on martinis…just kidding. I know Reid and Grace fell in love too fast…but it's because Grace is a vampire. Every vampire has the power to draw in your true love. The more Reid saw and spoke to Grace the more he fell in love with her…Sorry I never told you guys…ok back to story)
THIRD PERSON POV
Caleb and Pogue ran towards Graces room to see that the door was wide open. They ran inside to see Reid sitting up holding the back of his head.
"What happened?" asked Caleb looking around the room for Grace.
"He took her," said Tyler. "She was right. The two of us weren't a match for Shane. Just think if it was all of them in the room."
"Reid…we're really sorry, man," said Pogue walking up to him. "We wish we were here sooner."
"I'm getting her back," he said turning to face all three of them. "I don't care what it takes. I'm getting her back. She doesn't belong in that life."
"Reid, what can you do?" asked Caleb walking up to him and putting a hand on his shoulder. "They could be a million miles away from here. You wouldn't know the first place to look."
That was true. Reid didn't know where to look but he had to do something. He promised her that nothing was going to happen. He failed. He broke a promise to her. He didn't like the idea of breaking a promise to her. It hurt deep inside of him.
"And if you do get her back," started Pogue. "Shane would come looking again. You two can't keep running from him. And Tyler said that the two of you were not a match against just one. What about all of Shane's companions? We don't even know how many there are."
"He sucker punched me. I didn't even get a chance."
"It's because you were passed out cold on her bed while she saved your life. He was going to murder both of us for even being with Grace," said Tyler in the back.
Reid couldn't take the negativity in the room. They just wanted him to drop her just like that. How could he? He loved her. He never loved anything or anyone as much as he loved her. He walked out of the room and they called his name but never came after him. He walked through the halls thinking of her, her smile, her soft hair, her green eyes, her laugh, her soft lips touching his…
He couldn't stand it. He stared outside the window he came to in the hallway and stared out into the rain. He just had to get her back. Someway.
Graces POV
I sat at the vanity in me and Shane's bedroom and brushed my hair staring into my reflection. Sometimes I wish that the one hoax, a vampire not being able to see itself in the mirror, was true. I couldn't even look at myself. I thought I ran from this pain and it followed me. My past caught up with me and I was stuck in hell forever. It's true what they say, you can't escape hell. I could hear the screams from the basement from up in the third floor, where our bedroom was. I thought I would never hear those kinds of screams again. The pain of people suffering…the pain of the people in this town. The people I know. How could I do this? I couldn't even convince Shane to leave. He wanted to rub it all in the witch's faces. He wanted to cause them pain, especially Reid. Poor Reid, my love. I missed him so much.
When I thought of Reid I felt warmth rush through me. He was thinking of me right now just as I was thinking of him. It made tears swell up in my eyes but I quickly ran to the bathroom because I sensed that Shane was on his way up to our room. I was pretending to wash my face when he opened the door. I looked up in the mirror to see that he was already behind me. He wrapped his arms around me tightly and kissed my neck.
"It's good that you're home, princess," he whispered in my ear. I wanted to cry.
I turned around and stared into his brown eyes. Shane's eyes weren't like Reid's eyes. They were dark and sinister, scary, painful. He kissed me and I bent my head down. I shouldn't have done that.
"You're a disgrace to your own kind," he said and slapped my face. "Fallen in love with a witch! What's the matter with you?!"
I didn't look at him. I was afraid of him. He was much stronger than me, he could hurt me easily. Kill me even. He grabbed my face with so much force and made me stare into his eyes.
"You are mine!" he yelled in my face. He forcedly put his lips on mine and shoved his tongue into my mouth. I knew that he liked it when he was in control of me. He walked us towards the bed and pushed me down on it. He kissed me and so quickly he had my clothes off and his. I felt him inside me but I didn't feel any love. Then, that's when I thought of Reid and how if we were to ever have sex, would I feel love? I wanted to know. After a few minutes it was over and Shane was lying on his back next to me. I put a t-shirt on and went under the covers.
"Good idea, get some rest, you need it for tomorrow," he said.
"What's tomorrow?" I whispered not really wanting to know.
"School."
That's when I felt like my eyes were going to fall from their sockets. School? Please tell me he just meant me.
In the morning, I got a shower and put my uniform on. I was downstairs waiting to see which crony was going to give me a lift to school when I saw all six of them come down in uniforms.
"How do we look Grace?" asked Troy, the dark haired boy.
"You've got to be kidding me," I whispered to myself.
"You thought we would let you have all the fun?" asked Dan, the dark boy.
"That's where all the young ladies are," said Troy smiling. If he had a brain he would be cute.
"And we have to keep an eye on you," said Jack putting his arm around my shoulders. "We have to make sure that you won't be talking to the witches."
Reid, Caleb, Pogue and Tyler…What are they going to think when we walk into class?
When we finally arrived to Spenser's, I gulped. I couldn't believe that they were still going to go there to watch me and see where all the fresh meat was.
"We'll meet you in class," said Jack to Shane. "We have to go get our passes from the Headmaster. As I walked into Spenser's people were staring. I knew what was going through their minds. Who was this mysterious man walking with me? They thought Reid and I were together. What happened? Gossip was going to go around the school in ten minutes about me.
As I walked to Psychology I stopped in front of Shane. I gave him my pleading eyes. "Please, you said you wouldn't hurt them or do anything to them as long as I didn't talk to them or be around them. So please don't say anything to them. If their girlfriends say hi to me please let to me talk to them."
"There are a lot of words in that plead," he said staring at me while crossing his arms.
"Please, Shane."
He stood there for a minute then nodded. I walked in quickly and he followed. I sat all the way in the back and tried to block my face, that's when my sensitive hearing picked up a recognizable voice.
"It's him!" said Tyler to the guys.
I looked over at the door and saw the four of them staring over at us. I gulped again and then stared at Reid who was looking over. It hurt to see his face. I couldn't look at him. I looked away and felt my tears coming. Shane knew that they were looking and he swung his arm around my shoulders. I frowned and kept staring away from everyone. The four boys took their seats. I felt stares from everyone but then I sensed that others walk into the room. I knew at once all the girls would be swooning after them. They're vampires they have the power to be attractive and let every girl swoon and bow before them. Then after the bow, they will be their dinner. And those girls will be in the missing ads in the next morning's newspaper.
"Class, we have few new students with us," said Professor Ramsey. "Shane Turner are you here?"
"Right here prof!" yelled Shane. People turned and stared over. I felt tension from the four boys.
"Class these four guys over next to me are Charles Conner, Jack Travis, Troy Anderson and Daniel Robinson, boys please take seat anywhere."
And of course they took a seat near us. This was my hell. I belonged in hell.
After class Sarah came up to me and Shane stared at her and the other boys eyed her up like lunch.
"Hey, Grace," she said acting like nothing was wrong. Is she insane? She just walked up to four horny, hungry looking vampires!
"Hey, Sarah," I said smiling at her.
"I think we accidently switched books when we were studying in the library the other day. I had something important for Caleb in there."
"Oh really?" I asked wondering what day did we study together? I switched books with her and she smiled.
"Thanks Grace. You're a lifesaver."
"You have no idea," said Shane knowing I wouldn't feed from a human.
She grimaced and walked away.
Once the day was over we all went back to the house. Shane was in the shower and I put my books on my dresser. I accidently knocked into it and a couple of my books fell. That's when I noticed Sarah's name on my physiology book. Now, I thought she said I had hers. I picked it off the ground and a paper fell out. Has Sarah gone mental?
I picked up the note and opened it up. It was addressed to me. I quickly opened it. It was from Caleb.
Grace,
We know this is hard for you but Pogue and I think we found a way to help you. Is it true that if you kill the head vampire the others will go free? Or is that a hoax too? Please try and help us. We care about you. We don't want you in this situation plus its killing Reid to see Shane all over you.
Caleb
That is a hoax…the last time someone killed the head vampire of their own tribe the others were found dead too. I just wish there was a way to help me so Reid could be happy. I heard the shower turn off and I quickly went out to the balcony I lit the paper on fire and threw it over the balcony. There had to be away to get a hold of them without Shane knowing.
Sneaky Sarah can block her mind from Shane, why can't I?
"Is something burning?" asked Shane walking out of the bathroom with just a towel on.
"Yeah," I said walking into the bedroom. "Stupid me, I turned my straightener on and my books were in the way and some papers caught on fire." I blocked the memory of the note out of my head as he stood there trying to read my thoughts.
He believed me. I pictured the papers on fire and me throwing them out the balcony. It worked!
"Me and the boys are heading out later. You stay here!" He ordered. I nodded and walked out of the bedroom.
He's testing me to see if I would leave to go see them. I won't do it. I'll find another way to get in contact with them. I just have to.
