Previously on 'What Did I Miss?'…
"We're leaving Hunter. My family and I. We're going to Germany. It's getting too dangerous for Lucy, Kieran, Isabeau and… you… I love you." It all just kind of came out all at once.
The plane trip from Germany had been spent in complete silence. None of my brothers spoke during the drive from the airport to Violet Hill either.
I couldn't blame them. We hadn't exactly left on good terms.
"Nick, Logan go help your bro-" Mum stopped mid-sentence too, when she caught sight of Cameron. Mum looked the teenager up and down. "You're not Lucy." She said bluntly.
"No joke." Cameron replied bitterly. "I'm her kid."
"Hyacinth that's not what they want to know and you know it." A new voice droned. Everyone's eyes shot to the doorway to find another teenage girl, but she held to resemblance to Lucy. If anything she looked more like Nicholas.
Holy Shit.
Twins.
We all just sat there in shock and horror. Kieran Black, vampire hunter extraordinaire, was now a vampire. What the hell is going on?
"Bentley is Hunter's son." Hyacinth said quietly.
"He's mine… isn't he? "Quinn asked grimly.
"Yup." I answered.
"Your Father and I discussed it and agreed that you all need to start taking responsibility for your own mistakes. So, we're going back to Germany for a… Holiday, while you sort yourselves out." Mum said as she picked up her bag and proceeded to the door.
Just as she made her way up my neck and was beginning to make her way to my lips I closed my eyes and tilted my head slightly. I expected too feel her lips crashing on mine, but it never came. I opened my eyes to find the room empty.
Thinking I'd gone slightly insane and had imagined the whole thing I started to leave the kitchen, but stopped half way. Her wine glass was still there with her lip-gloss stains on it and a sticky note.
I hadn't imagined it. I'd been played and I had a feeling it was only going to get worse.
Christabel screamed before opening my door and leaving the house before I could stop her.
"Hel-blar." Lucy stated, before getting up from her chair and walking over to the large window in the dining room.
"How many do you think?" Isabeau asked no one in particular.
"At least thirty." Hunter remarked.
"Let's go then." Lucy said.
Chapter Nine – Fight
Nicholas POV
I watched in awe as Lucy roundhouse kicked a Hel-blar to the side of his stomach, before proceeding to skewer him with a wooden stake.
My brothers, Solange and I had been standing there for about ten minutes as we watched Hunter, Isabeau and Lucy beat the shit out of a bunch of Hel-blar.
It was a lot hotter than it sounds. Trust me.
Whenever we'd tried to join the fight the girls would angle themselves so we could barely get a decent punch in or just flat out push us back into the house.
Sixteen years ago it would have been me trying to pull Lucy out of a fight, but now she'd grown up and was capable of looking out for herself and two kids.
And it really pissed me off.
Lucy's hands were smart with a stake and she was a lot quicker on her feet, than she used to be. Her movements were fluid, but swift and continuous. This barely gave a chance for the Hel-blar to pass her.
As the last two Hel-blar came at her she threw her stake up in the air and high-kicked it, causing the stake to snap into two and pierce into the two Hel-blars' chests. It also gave me a rather good view of her bum.
Maybe I could turn a blind eye to a bit of fighting.
Logan POV
The three girls all came back into the house. Regular people would have been trashed after fending off thirty-something Hel-blar, but none of them looked like they'd even broken a sweat.
"Maybe you idiots can help next time." Hunter growled at us.
"Trust me we tried. But someone is a bit of a control freak." Quinn countered. Hunter looked like she was about to pounce on him, before Bentley came back into the dining room and dragged her off, silently of course. Madison and Cameron came in to evaluate the damage.
"Bed. Now. Both of you." Kieran commanded from behind them, before they even stepped foot in the room. The twins groaned, before storming up the stairs.
I glanced over at everyone else to see that they'd either taken a seat at the dining table or taken off to their room to avoid all awkwardness of the conversation to come.
Just as I turned my gaze to Isabeau I caught her staring at me. In an attempt to occupy herself she poured herself a glass of water placed at the end of the dining table. I walked up behind her and gently brushed the hair covering her right ear to the side.
"You're a good, Iz. I'll give you that." I whispered, while purposely breathing on her ear.
"I've always been a good fighter." She growled back. I pressed myself up against her back a little harder.
"I wasn't taking about that…" I mumbled into her ear and nipped on it slightly. She let out a soft moan that only I could make out. "One point to me." I smirked as I pulled completely off her and walked out of the room.
Isabeau: 1
Logan: 1
Connor POV
As I passed the foyer the front door slammed open.
"Christa, where have you been?" I asked in a right panic. Without even thinking about it I wrapped my arms around her and held her to my chest.
"Connor… Please let go." It was muffled, but I could make it out. I released Christa slowly, as if I was scared she would take off again. That's when I took a better look at her.
Christa's shirt was crumpled and her jeans were barely buttoned up and missing their belt. Her dark red hair was ruffled and in a general mess, while her lips were swollen and redder than usual.
I could instantly tell someone had pulled her clothes off and it wasn't me.
"Connor… I did something really stupid…"
