Chapter 10

Alex's POV

Everyone turned to me and I swiftly made my way over to Juliet. I stood by her side as Kellie glared at me.

"What do you mean, girlfriends?" Kellie asked. "You two don't show any public affection for each other at all. How can you be dating?"

I growled and stepped slightly in front of Juliet. I glared in Kellie's face and attempted to speak. My voice was doing better than the nurse said it would. Now, I could whisper.

"Get away from my girl or I may have to hurt you."

Kellie snorted in contempt and shoved me back. I slid a few inches and glared at her some more. My hands curled into claws and I began making my way back toward her. Before I could fully reach her, I felt two pairs of paws and three pairs of hands grab me and hold me back.

"Get off!" I snarled. "I'm gonna tear her limb from skin-covered limb!"

Suddenly, I contorted in pain and fell to the ground. The wolves above me glanced at Kellie, but Juliet knew what was happening. She swiftly picked me up and carried me up the stairs. We went even higher than our room, into the attic where the majority of the bats slept.

Thankfully, those bats were all downstairs. My screams of pain filled the entire room and I writhed on the ground. I saw visions of Harper and my mom, Max, Dad, and Justin. Then, everything went white and I felt a pain that outdid all of the other pains. I screamed until my throat hurt and at last, the agony stopped.

I slowly stood and turned to face Juliet. She stared at me in fear and backed away slightly. I felt my lips curl back over my teeth and I smiled at her. She quaked in fear and I wondered why.

I opened my mouth and found that me transforming into a demon was the last thing I needed for my voice to come back.

"Juliet," my hiss disturbed me slightly after not hearing it for months. "What'ssssss the matter?"

"Don't you know?" Juliet asked, still pressed flat against the wall. "Vampires may be considered evil, but even we know when to keep away. Demons love eating vampires. The only reason you didn't eat me when you first met me was because you were human. Please don't hurt me."

"Juliet how could you think that?" I asked, hurt. "You're my girlfriend. I could never eat you." I smirked as a thought came to mind. "Not like that anyway."

She smiled and hugged me cautiously. When she pulled back, she sighed. "OK, do we go downstairs and show the others your new form or do you want to go hunting for your soulmate?"

I shrugged and we headed downstairs. We glanced around and found all eyes on us. I smiled and all of the vampires backed away, just as Juliet had done.

"Don't worry, guys," Juliet said. "She won't hurt you, she's tame."

They slowly crept forward and sniffed me. They relaxed immediately and went back to whatever it is they were doing.

I glanced around and saw Selena deep in conversation with Kellie. Selena looked pissed while Kellie looked between ready to scream in anger and burst into tears. I made my way over to them and my tongue flicked out, tasting the air for smell. Selena smelled really bland, but she also had my scent and that would make her bland to me. Kellie however, shot a color into the air and I saw red. Her scent was red so she must have been angry.

As I got closer, Selena turned and stood in a protective stance in front of Kellie. I put up my hands in a sign of peace and she relaxed back a bit.

I glared at Kellie and she took a small step back. "Ssssssstay away from my girlfriend."

Kellie nodded and backed away further.

"Alex," Selena cut in. "Your voice is back."

I nodded. "Yeah, Ssssselena. I just needed to change so that it could come back all the way."

Selena shrugged and we walked back to Juliet. "So, are you two good again?" Selena asked.

Juliet shot a glance at me. I rolled my eyes, but smiled anyway. "Yessssss we're girlfriendsssssss."

Juliet threw her arms around my neck and pressed our lips together. I heard a whoosh and ducked us both down. Whatever it was flew over our heads and pierced a nearby vampire. Something else flew just above my tail, sticking the tip, but not causing much damage. It hit a werewolf a little ways away. As Juliet deepened the kiss, things started flying faster, hitting even more of the girls.

Finally, I caught something and threw it back over my shoulder. It hit its mark and Kellie shrieked in pain. I broke away from Juliet to face her. Kellie had a lamp shard through her arm, conveniently, the one she had been throwing with. I walked toward her and bent down. I twisted the shard in her arm before pulling it out as slowly as I could.

"Come on," I called. "Anyone who isssssn't hurt help sssssomeone who isssss to the infirmary. And not one word about what happened. I'll explain it."

Immediately, werewolves and vampires began helping each other to the medical part of school. I glared down at Kellie before turning to those who had remained.

My eyes fell on Selena and I felt a warm sensation spread throughout my body. Selena stared back at me for a moment before smiling slightly. I smiled back and turned to Juliet. She was glaring at Selena and I wondered why. I turned back to Selena and as I did so my cloak fell to the ground.

I blushed at the different whistles that came my way and Desiree howled in laughter. I glanced at Selena and saw her staring, unable to take her eyes away. I glanced down at my chest to see that Harper's name had been moved to a smaller heart. In the big heart across my chest, it said Selena. The name was in a curvaceous handwriting that I recognized as Selena's signature.

I lifted my head and my eyes connected with those of my new soulmate. Selena took a tentative step forward, but stepped back again when Juliet growled at her.

"Don't even try it dog," my girlfriend threatened.

Selena turned to her and growled, "do you want her to stay like this or would you rather have your vampire?"

"I'd take her like this as my girlfriend over being humanoid and having a dog for a soulmate," Juliet replied heatedly.

Through the entire thing I couldn't take my eyes off of Selena. Without thinking, I closed the distance between us and brought my lips to hers. I heard a gasp from Juliet and the sound of two pairs of feet running from the room. I was slowly changing back but my mind was getting foggy as if I didn't know what was happening.

I closed my eyes for a second and when I opened them, I was surprised to see Selena staring back at me.

"What just happened?" I asked slowly.

"You just kissed me and made Juliet upset," Selena replied.

I stared at her. "Why would I kiss you if I knew it would make Juliet upset?" I demanded.

Selena took a small step forward. "Because, Alex," she said slowly. "Juliet is upset that I'm your new soulmate."

Suddenly, I remembered the last few minutes and took off out the door. I followed the strong trail of Juliet's scent and found her a few moments later, crying into Kellie's arms. I felt a pang in my chest that I had made her cry and I rubbed a slow circle in her back to calm her down.

She turned to me and I opened my mouth to apologize. Before I could get it out, Juliet stood, took a breath, and attempted to punch me. I caught her fist in one smooth motion and held on. She glared at me and I opened my mouth to apologize again. This time, Kellie tried to kick me. I glanced at her before looking at her foot, which must have been swelling up. Kellie clutched at her newly broken foot and clenched her teeth in pain.

"Damn," she muttered. "Your girlfriend has some really strong legs."

Juliet didn't take her eyes away from mine. I decided to try one last time to apologize and if something got in the way this time, I'd just send it through my mind.

"Juliet," I began. "I am so, so very sorry for kissing Selena. I didn't know what was going on. It was the exact same way whenever I was with H-H-Harper," I cringed at the mention of her name. "I couldn't do anything about it. The only difference here was that I'm not dating Selena so I completely forgot that I kissed her after I became a vampire again. She had to tell me what had happened. I'm really sorry for doing that to you."

Juliet stared at me for a moment before hugging me tight and crying into my shoulder.

I watched Kellie's facial expression go from shocked to angry to downcast and she slunk away. I guided Juliet back to the dorm and we lay down for a bit, before accompanying the others to breakfast.

I sighed in relief that I had avoided loosing my girlfriend. Selena sat on one side of me and Juliet sat on the other. It should be an interesting rest of the year.

So was I right? Did you like it? If so, why don't you tell me by... Reviewing! :] :] ;}
