Chapter 14 (I do not own squat) Read and Review please thank you. Changing up some characters for the story to better fit…
Damonpov (Later…)
I'm kicked back with a shot of whiskey when my cell rings. I've a smile about my face when I see who it is but it's soon to fade…
"Isabella?"
"Damon…" She's whispering and I hear a lot of noise in the background.
"What's wrong sweetheart?"
"I think my friends are in trouble… They've been acting weird Damon this blond haired guy came up to our table and I think he's a vampire…"
"Where you at?"
"That new cl… just a sec Damon I've been spotted."
WHAT?!
I hear her toss the phone about somewhere.
And why aren't you with your friends baby?
I'm already making my way over to which club I think it is but continue to listen in.
"Potty break a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do."
Come along James wishes you to join your friends.
Play along please Bella.
Ah, there she is and why are you hiding out here love?
"Hiding I wasn't hiding." She giggles and I knew then she was trying to pretend she was compelled as well. Good girl stall them.
Come on then love time for a little fun. You like having fun don't you? Hmmm look at that ass Laurent.
Ah hell no! NO ONES'S TOUCHING MY GIRL! MOTHERFUCKER… He just let old Damon Salvatore out of the fucking cage!
Bellapov (Now…)
"Just drink it Bella. I thought you were here for a girls night you know fun?"
I down the highly illegal red Jello shot and beer they were serving us underage girls. I already felt as though I was in a very bad Grimm's Fairy tale as I looked around. Eyes all around us this damn place Angie took me to was filled with girls our age no one over at least 35. The only men about where these weird guys in suits and the men working the bar. How does this not scream out warning?
I was also furious with myself for putting on the wrong hoodie. I didn't realize it till I got here so my fucking vervain syringe is back home a lot of good it does me now. An hour or so went by and I started to think maybe it was my imagination. But then I think it was also the booze talking as I'd already had a few shots and another beer. I made myself stop knowing I'd be no good drunk off my ass if trouble did arise but then without that vervain I was fucked anyhow.
A dark haired guy comes up to the table and whispers something into Jessica's ear and she looks directly to me and starts giggling but nods. He looks directly at me and winks. I cut Jessica a what the hell look.
"What was that?"
"He wanted to know if you'd be joining us in the VIP room."
"VIP room?"
Her and Angie laugh. Um what?
"And what exactly did you say."
"Well of course you would."
"What exactly is the VIP room?"
They shrug and I already had my answer. I turn to see this blond haired man staring me down he's sitting upon a booth with some other men. They all dressed like some sort of modern day gangsters or something and I don't mean saggy panted thugs and all that I mean they were wearing suits and ties. This guy's hair was pulled back in a ponytail and a dark man with dreads sat next to him. I could pick up his Jamaican accent from her. I look away as the blonde man tilts his head ever so slightly at me.
"Let's go dance Bella." Angie says.
"Um Angie you know I don't dance."
"Oh come on Bella it'd be fun."
She jumps down and takes my hand dragging me off to this dance floor. We do this spinning around twirling off and on dance and it's some lame Goo Goo dolls song playing. Didn't that band die? I found myself thinking or at least they should have… I look over to see this blonde haired guy that was staring a hole in me talking to Jessica at the table but is once again looking at me. I swallow back nervously and take Angie's hand as we make our way back. I help her get seated as she's drunk off her ass. She pops my rear playfully and normally I'd laugh but this guy seemed to be enjoying that a bit too much. He smirks.
"Why don't you follow me ladies?"
Angie and Jessica giggle and automatically jump down so I as well pretend I'm following along but once his back is turned and no one's looking I rush off to the bathroom I knew what those black eyes meant and what we were dealing with.
I quickly dial Damon and pray he answers quickly…
"Isabella?"
"Damon…" I whisper trying to not get caught.
"What's wrong sweetheart?"
"I think my friends are in trouble… They've been acting weird Damon this blond haired guy came up to our table and I think he's a vampire…"
"Where you at?"
"That new cl…" Shit… I hear them coming my way. "just a sec Damon I've been spotted."
I quickly toss my phone where it'll stay hidden but Damon could hear still.
And why aren't you with your friends baby?
"Potty break a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do."
Come along James wishes you to join your friends.
Ah, there she is and why are you hiding out here love?
"Hiding I wasn't hiding." I force a stupid giggle trying to sound compelled.
Come on then love time for a little fun. You like having fun don't you? Hmmm look at that ass Laurent.
I try my hardest to remain calm and not react as he runs a hand along my rear. He takes me by the arm.
"This one's mine boys."
They nod. He leads me into this corner area of the club that's covered by a dark blue curtain. He pulls it open and shoves me inside. I gasp out seeing Angie and Jessica being fed from and these vampires having sex with them. "Hmmm.." This one's not compelled. He says twirling me around.
"Stop this! Please!"
He smiles.
"Why don't you like to watch?"
He looks me dead in the eyes.
Come on love just a little feed and a good fucking that's all I want and you're free to go until I call upon you again.
I go to knee him in the crotch. Only he does this maneuvering thing of flipping me on the ground and he picks me up by the throat slamming me against the wall. His fangs pop out.
"Nevermind this is much more fun…"
I go to scream out and he covers my mouth forcefully. He bites down on my neck and I hear him unzipping his pants. I bite down hard as I can on his hand and he growls out punching me in the face knocking me down and crawls over me as I'm on the floor.
"NO GET OFF ME YOU BASTARD!"
I reach out clasping my hands around his throat and dig my nails into him. He laughs and grabs my wrist slamming them down. I shout out and use all my strength to roll over underneath him. He pulls at my hair and wince feeling the bareness of him against me and am now fearing the worst I grab whatever I can reach trying to get leverage to get out from under him. I turn around feeling him no longer against me I turn to see Damon and he's got this guy raised in the air. He tosses him across the room. And I scoot into the corner of the room. Damon grabs a nearby broom and snaps it in half and stakes the vampire up against the wall then snaps his neck twisting it until it comes off and he throws it at the table amongst the other vampires that have my friends. He leaps over the table and grabs the other two by the collar and starts slamming them down repeatedly into the tables Angie and Jessica scream and I force myself up but wanted to stay in that corner like a stray kitten. I hurriedly get them out of the room. But I turn to see more of these guys coming our way.
"GO!" I yell at them.
"GO HOME!"
"But Bella!"
"I'll be fine just fucking go!" I toss Jessica her keys and purse.
I start throwing chairs, tables whatever I can their way so they can escape. I hear Jessica's car start and the peeling out of wheels. I sigh in relief knowing they're safe now but feel myself get lifted up in the air and tossed. I feel another force hit and a sit of hands wrap around me. He places me down gently and nods as he goes after the other vampire. I make my way over and grab the other end of the broom that Damon had snapped off earlier. I turn and see Damon against the wall with a beer tap staked through his shoulder.
I rush over as the guy has his hand against Damon's face pushing it against the wall. I knew the vampire would sense me so I prayed my trick would work. I rush over as though I'm to stake him but purposely fall back on the floor but make sure I yank him down with me as hard as possible against the end of the broom. I find myself shocked it worked. I'm so pissed by this point I roll him around and I take it out and stake him yet again and again. I feel a set of hands go around me and I turn and automatically put my arms around his neck.
I lean against him as he takes off running to his cabin. He rushes me inside and lays me down on the couch and he disappears for a second and I hear him start the shower. He returns and kneels over me checking me over. I shoot up off the couch and rush over to the kitchen sink where I begin to puke. He holds my hair back and I feel his hand against my back. The flashes hit and I bow over feeling like I just got hit in the gut. I come down to the ground and I fucking lose it something I never ever wanted to do in front of Damon of all the people in this world but I couldn't control it. I was so mad.
"Shh…" Damon says softly and gets on the floor with me and starts rocking me.
I grab the collar of his shirt and literally wrap myself around him. I feel him kiss the top of my head.
"They're all dead you understand me?"
I nod against him.
"They won't ever hurt you or your friends again."
He picks me up and carries me to the shower where he strips me down and helps me inside. I'm too weak to stand so I just sit there under the water letting it hit. I watch as the blood washes down.
"I called Jasper and Alice to go watch over your friends see if they may need some compelling or blood even depending on if they were hurt."
I nod and bring my knees to my chest. He bites down on his wrist and brings it to my mouth. He runs a hand along the back of my head and for once this isn't sexual for either of us. Once I finish he washes the blood of his wrist and lets it heal as he grabs the shampoo and starts to wash my hair.
I don't remember much else other than laying in his bed later that night. I open my eyes and see him looking right at me. He narrows his eyes and caresses my cheek.
"How do you feel?"
"Better physically that is."
He nods.
"Jasper let me know that everything's ok and your friends remember none of this."
I nod almost wishing at this point I could be compelled.
"Pretty smooth by the way…"
"What?"
"The way you manipulated that vampire. Damn…"
"Was that Mystic Falls Damon I met back there?"
He smirks.
"Yes… you ready to run yet?"
I put my hand to his cheek.
"You're going to have to try a lot harder than that. Maybe next time you should try putting their heads on stakes and march around."
He laughs but looks to me lifting a brow.
"I think you might just be as fucked up as I am my dear."
I swallow back on this.
"After what I saw I wanted them to die. A sick part of me enjoyed watching you rip that bastard's head off."
That knot in forms in my throat again. I close my eyes trying not to break down.
"Thank you…"
"For?"
"You saved our asses. If you hadn't…" I grab my gut feeling sick knowing I'd have been raped.
"Isabella that's not something you have to thank me for. That's my job. The only thing I'm rather angry with you about if I'm to be honest is you didn't tell me the truth behind all this. I knew you were up to something cause I always know when your holding something back from me. You suck at lying you might as well quite trying to get away with it. And even though you didn't' exactly lie you kept something from me. That upsets me considering how open I have been with you. I can assure you I'm not that open with just anyone. If I had known about this you and I could have been working together on this rather than what happened tonight. All this could have been prevented if you had come to me and admitted what you were really up to. I suppose this is just as much my fault because deep down I already knew you were up to something yet I did nothing about it. Because of how we both treated this you almost got fucking raped and that fucking vampire fed from you and beat the living shit out of you! You better not ever hold back on me again you understand me! Next time you come clean if you want to do some fucking detective work, kill a bunch of motherfuckers, or whatever bullshit you're coming up with in that head of yours then you come to me. We work together on these things and that's final. Next time I won't even be near this civil with you. I love you but I will not play these games."
My heart breaks at his words but I deserve it and I know it so I take it and I nod but bury my face into his pillow. He sighs and puts his arm around me.
"I'd have never forgiven myself if you got raped or killed. Now that I have you I'm not going to fucking lose you do you understand me? I can't lose you you're all I have left in this pathetic vampire's existence…"
I try to sleep but can't. I just lay there staring at the ceiling. I raise up at one point and make my way to the bathroom and splash some cold water on my face. I noticed Damon wasn't in bed either. I dry my face off and make my way to the living room his back turned to me as he sits at the table. His whiskey bottle on the table and glass filled on the table as he runs a single finger around the rim of the glass. I make my way behind him and lean over wrapping my arms around his neck and I rest my head on his shoulder. He runs a hand along my arms. He pulls me into his lap and pulls my legs up into his lap as well. I wrap my arms back around him.
