Chapter 21

"Maybe if you opened your eyes when I ran you would get use to it" Lucas said to me while my eyes were still shut. For the second time today he laid me down on something soft I opened my eyes Lucas had bought me back to my room. Lucas had put me on my bed I looked at the clock it was six thirty at night.
"When are Kerry and Matt coming back?" I asked Lucas.
He sat on my bed "there scanning the entire forest to see if Kaleb was around or is still around, they should be done soon it's been an hour or so" Lucas said with concern. I had a bad feeling what if they found Kaleb what if Matt and Kerry were hurt?
I got up off the bed Lucas grabbed my hand "where are you going?" he asked me.
"I'm going to go to the forest and yell for Matt and Kerry to come out, its late if they haven't found anything by now it means he's not there" I tried to walk but Lucas stayed glued to the ground while still holding my hand "I hate it when you do that" I said to smiled and once again my cheeks burned.
"You know you can't go there Matt would kill me if I took you there again. I would go to check up on them but he would kill me if I left you here alone. Plus you look exhausted you've had a rough day just sleep. When they return I promise I'll wake you up okay" Lucas said while tugging me closer to the bed.
"I never get my way" I said quietly under my breath.
"We don't do this to you on purpose, Matt left me with you just in case Kaleb came to the school instead of the forest. I would be better protection for you than Matt" Lucas stated. I walked over to my bed, I did feel exhausted so much had happened in one day. I found out how Matt turned into a vampire, I finally got to go to the lake, I stupidly told them I'm hearing Kalebs voice, I'm stressing out because Matt and Kerry aren't back yet and now I'm also stressing because Lucas is in my room I don't know if we are together or not? He kissed me, he said he loved me, what am I meant to do? So many emotions I don't know what to do I feel like I'm being chocked. I just stared at the bed, how could I sleep with Matt and Kerry not here. "Lay down" Lucas instructed me.
"How can I when there still out there. Why did you let them go?" I questioned.
Lucas pushed back the covers and lifted me onto the bed tucking me in so fast I couldn't fight back.
"Stop doing that!" I yelled. I tried to get off the bed but Lucas's steal embraces shoved me back down.
"They're fine Ruka calm down, you're going to get sick from all the worrying" Lucas said in a soft voice.
Again I didn't get my way. I'm not weak I just want to stay up until Matt and Kerry get back. I wasn't even allowed to do that?! Life sucks sometimes. I kept my eyes open looking at Lucas who was looking right back at me with loving eyes. It was like a staring contest which I lost every time with my insanely tired eyelids but I fought back the sleepiness, it didn't feel right to sleep while my brother and sister were out there protecting me.
"Close your eyes Ruka" Lucas said calmly in a demanding tone. I was irritating him which brought a smile to my face.
"If you won't go to sleep on your own, I'll have to force you" Lucas said with a huge grin.
"You can't force me to do anything" How wrong I knew I was to say that I thought to myself.
"I'll tell you another one of my gifts shall I" Lucas grinned even bigger. God please don't have the ability to make me sleep!
"I can release my energy to living things but I can also absorb energy from living things. If I absorb a little from you right now you'll fall asleep instantly. So I'll give you a choice sleep now or I'll make you sleep" he said happily.
I frowned "I don't believe you" what the hell was wrong with me!
Lucas looked confused "why not?" "Because" I didn't even have an excuse it was buying time for me to stay awake what else did I need.
"Okay I'll make you sleep then" Lucas's hand reached over to me settling on top of my head. His hand was cold and heavy on my head, I felt my muscles relax, my heart beat calming down. My eye lids started to feel very heavy whatever Lucas was doing to me it was working, "Stop please" I begged.
"I believe you" Lucas took his hand off, god I felt exhausted now. I opened my eyes to see Lucas, all the grinning evaporated from his facem
"I hate it when your voice sounds so sad". I laughed and feel into an unwanted deep sleep thanks to Lucas.

Kalebs POV

Damn it I thought, I had just gone back into the forest when I heard two vampires running through it. I masked my scent they would never find me. I picked up both the scents it was Kerry and Matt scanning through the forest to find me to keep me away from Ruka. I laughed at my thought they'll never find me even if they did I was stronger and an older vampire then them I could crush them so easily! I would take Ruka eventually they were just delaying the inevitable. They knew I was here which meant Ruka had opened her mouth. Great. Oh well just makes things more interesting I guess.
I quickly ran out of the forest and back to my car, there was no point sitting in the forest Ruka had blocked me out. I had about four days to go before I'd have Ruka. If Lucas was never around Ruka would have been mine. I had asked Ruka out many many times only to get 'no' as a response all those years ago. The more times I asked the angrier she got. Her dad had threatened me to leave her alone, but I physically couldn't. Ruka was mine she would have given up eventually if it hadn't been for Lucas! When Lucas asked Ruka out all hell broke out she said YES! She said yes to an inferior, weak, useless Lucas instead of picking me. My temper flared, jealousy enclosed me, I would do anything to get Ruka even if I had to kill. I didn't care she didn't want me, I wanted her nothing else mattered. My stupid parents tried to stop me, but they were to weak living on animal blood instead of fresh human blood that was the day I left my parents, too weak to stop me I started on my plotting to get Ruka.
I had finally succeeded in getting Ruka and taking her as far away from Lucas a possible but I made a huge mistake. I had bought Ruka to a dungeon under the house I had made, when she woke up I entered her cell, all I could think of was I had to change her before Lucas changes her. I didn't see she was holding her father's dagger I quickly flung to the furthest wall in the room with mock horror, I could easily rip that from her grip, and I should have but I didn't. I thought she would throw it at me when her arm raised but when it went back down towards her chest I was to shocked to react, Ruka plunged the knife into her heart! I ran holding her dying body in my arms her last words were "sorry Lucas, I love you". Her last words filled me with pain. Ruka was gone, I hadn't claimed her as mine. It was all Lucas's fault, when Ruka died I swore I would kill him.
Ever since Ruka died I tried to fill the void but it didn't work, woman used me for my looks, strength, power, money. I decided to use them for their blood. I let out a laugh. Every one of those girls were dead! They used me then threw me away and that never went down with me to well. Ruka was the only one who I hadn't killed who rejected me, the way she rejected me just made me want her more.
I quickly broke my train of thought and turned ignition on and speed away from the school, it wasn't safe for me to take Ruka yet. I had to get stronger, stronger than Lucas or I would die trying to take Ruka. I had gotten a few vampires to stay at the boarding school, little did Lucas no there were bad vampires staying at the school watching their every move, I instructed them to watch but to never take Ruka, she was mine I would take her. When it came time for the ball my men will take care of all the weak vampires while I take care of Matt, Lucas and Kerry. They thought the school was safe so wrong they were!
