Just so you guys know, I really love reviews. They make me really happy. Ridiculously happy, actually.
Reviews everything else you could possibly do for me
If you haven't read that chapter a wrote a couple days ago, read it.
Bella gasped in horror. "Alec, what happened?" she whimpered.
He looked up at her, scared himself, with his bright red eyes. "They... they turned me. Isn't it obvious? The Cullen's... they ambushed me. Bella you have to kill me. This is the greatest dishonor for a Shadowhunter. I cannot see my family ever again." Bella did not know how to respond.
Alec screamed in pain and clawed at his neck. "Bella, you have to help me," Alec begged, sounding choked. "It hurts, make it stop."
Bella looked at him with pity. "You're hungry," was all she said. Alec shook his head vigorously. He would not feed, and he would not go back to the Institute to receive blood. "There's only one option, Alec. Me."
Alec shook his head and glared at her, "Are you sick, Bella? Absolutely not."
Bella took a deep, nervous breath. "Once I turn back into my human form, your hunting instincts will take you over. You're so hungry and untrained that you won't be able to help it. You're going to want to suck me dry, but I'll turn back into a vampire and I won't let you. This is going to work," she explained, her voice taking on the tone of a kind kindergarten teacher.
"Bella, please don't."
She didn't listen. Soon she was a human, vulnerable and radiating with the smell of blood. Alec lunged.
Being fed on wasn't as bad as Bella had anticipated. It was a nice, calming feeling.
To be perfectly honest, she really enjoyed it. But soon her Shadowhunting instincts took charge and she changed into a vampire, out of harms way.
Alec huffed, "I hate you, Isabella Swan. I can not believe you just made me do that. You just made me EAT you, you crazy girl!"
He pulled her into a big, strong hug. He put his nose into her hair and blinked hard, "I thought I lost you, love." Bella just grinned stupidly at him, an buried her face into his chest. "Don't ever let me do that again," he whispered in her ear. She got the shivers.
"Come back with me," she pleaded. He shook his head. He would not. "Please, come back. You parents miss you, Izzy misses you, Max misses you. Clary and Jace miss you. Hell, even Simon misses you, Alec! You're a big deal. We need you."
When he didn't respond, Bella kissed him on the cheek and whispered into his cheek, "I need you."
"Bella, have I ever told you I love you?"
"Nope."
"Well, I do."
"Okay."
"A lot."
"If you say so, Alec."
Alec stared at her for a long time. Why wouldn't she say I love you back?
"Bella, is there something wrong? Have I made you uncomfortable?" he asked worried.
She nodded, "You don't love me, Alec. If you loved me, you would come back to the Institute. You would be with me. You don't love me, and I'm not a fan of liars. So please don't tell me you love me when you have zero apparent intentions of being with me. It's just getting my hopes up."
"You are such a drama queen, Isabella Swan."
"Am not, you are. You're the one that is being miserable and refusing to have a life just because something happened that was completely out of your hands. Don't you dare call me the dramatic one, Alexander Lightwood."
After considering her words, he finally said, "I love you, Isabella Marie Swan."
"As I love you, Alexander Gideon Lightwood."
This was his acceptance. He would go to the Institute with her. But first he would get revenge on the ones who did this to him.
Remember to pretty please review. Next time I will be responding to your comments, and you don't wanna miss that, right?
