Chapter eight
Falling
I lock my gaze with his not able to look away. He has this pull about him that draws me in. I didn't know I was walking towards him until I was right in front of him. I jump in shock when I realize it. The boy gives me a slight smile. I look at him with a puzzled look on my face.
He must have some kind of power and it's not working on me. I look up at him with a small triumphant smile on my face. I whisper saying "I know what you are."
He stiffens considerably looking me straight in the eyes. Then he says "How?" in a voice I can't describe. It pulls you to him just like he does that's when I put the pieces together he must have the power of attraction. I said my thoughts and he stiffen just a little more so I knew I hit it on the nose.
I smile saying "I'm Bella Swan and you are?" He hesitated for a half second before saying "My name is Damien Andrews." He says "How is it you know about us but your still human? How can I not get in your head? How...what are you?"
I smile again telling him we need to take a walk. He looks straight at me then gives a slight nod following me. I walk past the huge slide with him keeping step with me when he grabs my shoulders turning me to face him. I feel his power trying to work on me again to make me do what he wants. I take a sudden intake of breath before speaking.
I explained the thing with Edward in very little detail only saying necessary facts. He listens with avid attention digesting every word I say. When I finish with my story one tear rolls down my left cheek that's when I feel Damien lightly wipe the tear away looking at it oddly like he had never seen one before. I use my hairs to hide my face looking through it at him.
He has an odd expression on his face one full of sadness and grief. I put my hand on his cheek to comfort him not realizing why I did so. He looks at me shocked by this simple action. We walk in silence not knowing what to do now. I asked him what power does he have I can feel something but I don't understand it. He looks at me and says "I have the power of physical attraction I can make you want to do anything I ask. I can tap into your head to look at your emotions."
I look at him my face full of shock. I have never come across someone who has the power of physical attraction. All the power he has in his hands the Voultri would do anything to get him.
I must have been lost in my thoughts because the next thing I know I'm falling. . .
