Chapter 9

I tossed him across the room, feeling pleased when I heard one of his ribs crack against the wall. I looked over at him, as he slid down the wall to the floor. "You bastard," He growled. He grabbed a knife from the counter beside him.

I laughed, enjoying my new play toy. "Alright human, show me what you can do!"

He ran at me, knife held high. Faster than he could blink I grabbed his hand, then made a swift chop to his elbow, braking it. He screamed before dropping his knife, which conveniently landed in his foot. He screamed again, and I smiled as the monster in me went wild. The smell of fresh blood clung to my nose, making my mouth water, and throat tighten.

"Is this all you have? It will take much, much more to hurt me," I growled, then smiled manically.

"What the hell are you?" He screamed, terrified. I only laughed, as his fear fed me, as his blood drove my instincts mad.

Then I felt a tiny hand on my leg. I looked down, ready to kill, but saw Leanna. Her heart beat was fast, but light, and her eyes strangely trusting; not something I'd expected. Fear; yes, terror; probably, happiness… maybe. But trust? What a strange little girl.

"That's enough, Logan," She said. I released her father's arm, and he crumpled to the ground, screaming. His screams hurt my ears, now that my high was over, but I didn't flinch. I just stared down at Leanna, waiting to see what she would do. She looked back at her mother, then at me, but my eyes never strayed from her.

"You should probably go, before Momma freaks out," She said.

Finally I tore my eyes from her, and looked at her mother. She was everything I'd expected to see. Terror was in her eyes, her heart beating hard and fast with fear. I looked back at Leanna, then nodded, and jumped from the window.
