Chapter Twenty five
Noah's POV
Stupid pig head idiot! I just shoved the needle into Logan's arm not caring for the consequences I would not let Kayla die. My Father no no no Darius hurt her, Dedrick was an idiot for toying around with Darius he should have killed him he hurt his sons, it should have been as easy kill. But because Dedrick let his emotions blind him Kayla was dying before my eyes. I knew Logan was to proud to ask for help that's why I barged in. I made it blatantly obvious to him that Kayla was my best friend and that she belonged to him to ease his irritation towards me and let me help him. Kayla's heart beat wasn't picking up she wasn't healing with the amount of blood I was pushing into her body while Logan continued to pour his venom in. That venom and along with his blood would save her only if her body would accept it. If Kayla's mind was against changing she would die.
I could feel every bit of pain she was feeling the pain was excruciating I was sickened by how much Darius had hurt her, I was glad she was feeling something because it meant she was alive. But slowly I started to feel less of her pain which was scaring me. Was my blood being washed out of her system because of Logan's blood? Or was she passing on? My thoughts began to scare me. I injected two hundred mills in her instantly she started spitting up the blood. The second I injected blood into her again it came spewing out of her mouth and her chest I felt helpless I wanted to scream. Kayla just HEAL!
"We're going round in circles!" I said in frustration. My eyes wavered over to Logan's face where he continued to keep his mouth clamped onto Kayla's with his eyes shut. He was scared just as much I was I could sense it. Her heart was still beating which kept me sane for now but then all of a sudden her heart beat just stopped. I couldn't feel a single thing she was feeling. She can't be!
"Kayla! I said in shock and dropped the needle still contain blood. I began shaking her while Logan opened his eyes.
"Wake up!" I shouted at her. I shock her but blood continued to ooze out of her body she didn't respond. Her body was so close to white, her face strained from the pain she was feeling.
That's it! I yelled in my mind. I tour my own wrist out blood came pouring out I let it fall onto Kayla's wound. Logan finally came out of his haze and pushed me I went flying into the opposite side of the room. I didn't care at least I knew I had done everything.
"Stay away from her!" he yelled rocking Kayla's lifeless body back and forth.
"This is your fault!" I shouted back at him and teleported to his side grabbing Kayla out of his hands. Blood seeped through my shirt as I held her to my chest trying to hear the beating of her heart, she can't die. Logan grabbed Kayla out of my hands and put her gently onto the bed.
"It's all your Fathers fault" Logan said with pure hatred and attempted to punch me but I managed to dodge him.
"Actually it's both our stupid Fathers fault!" I yelled at him shaking him and then letting go. Logan finally came to his senses and calmed down.
Logan laid next to Kayla I did the same. I let my tears fall, the girl I had known my entire life was gone. Gone just like that. My tears were thick and heavy my grief must be nothing compared to Logan's after all she was his soul mates. I didn't care what he thought about mine and Kayla's relationship. I had lost someone in my life who had played such an important part. I remembered on her fourteenth birthday the year before I left her. I gave her the sun, I and her had watched the sun rise. She had always wanted to see it but never managed to wake up in time. That gift to her was the best thing I had ever given her, her face lit up like the sun, her eyes held pure innocence and her smile was just amazing and breath taking. I loved her. I walked away from Kayla's body. My heart shattered my eye sight blurred, my knees reached the floor with a thud I started shaking my head. I was lost the whole point of me coming back into Kayla's life was to save her and now shes…shes…I can't. I shook my head even more.
"How could we let this happen?" I said in agony. I clutched my chest I could feel pain there. I punched myself there it was exactly where Darius had hurt Kayla. I wished I could have been there to take the blow. The pain intensified raging like a fire, full throttle I stopped thinking, I stopped breathing, I didn't want to make a noise. My own heart started beating harder growing in hope. The second I was sure I raced to the syringe.
Logan's POV.
The second her heart beat stopped my world came shattering down. How could I leave her? With no protection? I had locked her in a room! As if that was protection. I'm a selfish idiot.
Noah ripped at his wrist and poured his disgusting blood all over my Kayla! Instantly I hit him hard enough to let him go flying across the room. That filled me with joy it was because of his father was Kayla…Kayla NO LONGER WITH ME! I yelled in my mind.
"Stay away from her!" I yelled at Noah while rocking Kayla's lifeless body back and forth. This was the only thing I could do. I wasn't ready to let go.
Noah grabbed Kayla from me, infuriating me more "This is your fault!" he said to me.
I grabbed Kayla back out of his hands and laid her gently on top of the bed.
"It's all your Fathers fault" I said aggressively I tried punching him but he dodged it.
"Actually it's both our stupid Fathers fault!" Noah said shaking me. I took a minute to think calmly. It was my fault! And only my fault! I stopped my thoughts of killing Noah slip out of my mind and walked over to the bed and laid down next to Kayla. Her body was so white just like a vampire, if only…I let out a breath.
Noah laid next to her tears finally falling from his eyes. I let mine run to. We both lost someone close to our hearts. I felt sickened and mortified by the pain she must have gone through. How was I meant to tell everyone? Especially her parents they would want me dead and I would happily obliged. I couldn't live in a world without her. Kayla had kept me sane through all these years giving me hope that I could have a family, have someone to love me, someone for me to love. And now. I have nothing Darius won he had gotten the darkness once again to roll back into my life. I balled my hands into a fist, I was to slow, I had done everything wrong by my Kayla's side. I never gave her what she wanted. If I had given her up she would be going to university, become a doctor and save lives. Not lose her life with being with me. I was selfish I wanted her for myself. I wanted her smile around me, I loved to see her lie, how she use to fidget. Her eyes held warmth, her heart was waiting for someone to love her, I had touched her heart she had let me in. I had failed her. FAILED FAILED FAILED. I do not deserve to lay next to her. I just wanted to breakdown, I wanted to give up. Kayla…Kayla was my life, when she needed me I wasn't there for her. How will I live knowing I won't see that beautiful smile of hers? Her laugh? Her irritation towards me? I would miss her expression whenever I kissed her or how her heart would speed up just by my touch. Internally I felt chocked right now I couldn't imagine being without her, she had been around me for so long being away from her just wasn't an option.
"Kayla. I love you, if you pass on I promise you I'll follow. I love you" I whispered hoping she would just awaken.
Just as I was about to get up Noah got up. He broke down on the floor shaking his head side to side. I watched him my ears burning, by eyes blurry I wanted to break lose as he was doing. Noah started to hit himself I was going to stop him when an expression crossed his face which confused me. He looked lost? Noah stopped moving he looked alert all of a sudden like something was coming. I followed if Darius was planning to take Kayla's body from me I would fight to the death. I had nothing to lose. All of a sudden I started hearing a beat. It was so faint I wasn't sure if I heard it, I listened closely and I heard a double beat stronger than before. Instantly Noah plunged the syringe into my arm I gladly let him do it. I bit back into Kayla's neck. I let my eyes hover over Kayla's wound. Relief flooded through me. She was HEALING!
Tears of joy flooded our heavier and faster than before, Kayla was coming back! Kayla was coming back to me! Noah and I continued to push blood and venom into her until she healed. I could see her wounds were closing but I had to continually push the blood away from the wound to make sure. But finally the gaping wound closed over. Kayla's heart was beating that's what mattered!
I retracted my fangs and spoke to Noah as calmly as I could "Thank you" I said to him.
"We need her to wake up now" he said dropping the syringe onto the floor relief flooding through him. The conversion usually took a day all we could do was wait and watch her come back to life, a new life as a vampire. Waiting was going to be painful for Kayla and I, I hope she wasn't into much pain. I couldn't tell but I knew Noah may be able to.
"Can you feel her emotions?" I asked Noah hesitantly.
"No" he said dully.
I grabbed Kayla's hand in mine, her warm body was now cold. Her heart was beating to a new beat, I couldn't wait for her to wake up. I needed her to know I loved her more than I thought I did. My tears feel on her face. I hoped she knew I was by her side and wished I could take the pain away from her.
"I'll bring you blood and get someone in here to clean this mess up. We don't need Kayla freaking out when she wakes up now" Noah said kindly.
"Thank you" I replied. I needed the blood, now that I knew Kayla was coming back to me I needed my strength back. If Darius was to come back I had to be prepared.
Kayla's POV
I wanted to wake up but no matter how hard I tried it just wouldn't work, I didn't understand how I got to this state of mind, I couldn't even remember what had happened to me. Pain was a good way to describe the way I was feeling. I couldn't move, I couldn't speak, I couldn't hear well. I could barely think. I wanted to cry. I fought internally the pain was so bad I was giving into the darkness I could feel myself going deeper and deeper just wanting the pain to go away. I could feel my body being dragged even though I was unconscious I was still aware of my surrounding which was unnerving. I couldn't see where the whimpers were coming from. I could hear Noah and Logan arguing as usual even though I couldn't hear well. I was stuck in my mind and they were arguing, that was a blow to my heart. They both knew I cared for them why didn't they get along knowing it would make me happy? Why weren't they helping me? The pain was growing it was burning all my insides I wanted to toss and turn anything to make it just go away I went deeper into the darkness where the pain dulled but only for a bit the deeper I went the better I felt. But as I went deeper I could feel something pulling me back up not wanting me to go. All I was trying to do was feel less pain but I felt bad for moving into the darkness for some reason, like the deeper I went the less likely I was going to get out. That thought scared me.
"Kayla. I love …, if …pass on I promise … I'll fo…w. .. love you" is all I could hear. The sentence confused me. I could feel something wet on my chest. The sentence ran circles in my mind. The voice was so pained? What had happened? I tried to decode the message 'Kayla I love you, if you?... if you pass on I promise I'll follow? I love you.
Logan, it was Logan's voice why would he say 'Kayla. I love you, if you pass on I promise you I'll follow. I love you'?
Was I hurt? I don't remember? Logan's voice was tearing me up inside I needed to comfort him, I wanted to comfort him. I forgot about the pain which felt like fire as I unpeeled each layer. As I abandoned the darkness came excruciating pain. Logan was worth it, he was in pain because of me I had to get to him. I tried with all my might to opened my mouth but I couldn't my body defied me when I needed it to work. My heart ached knowing I had hurt him, though unintentionally I hoped. How could I be so stupid to hurt him? Logan was the best thing that happened to me, how? What did I do? I had done something terrible wrong even though my insides were burning they were now twisting with guilty from Logan's voice. I could feel his tears on my face cooling me for just a second before the pain came back. What was happening to me? I kept my mind on Logan, his eyes. I could go on about his eyes. When they were black he was angry but when they were the lightest colour the held love, peace and wanting. Logan wanted me, me! His touch was amazing, gentle, I loved it though it always made my heart beat speed up. I knew he loved it to. Logan's strength both mind and body was incredible, he never gave up on me. He showed me love and what had I done? I had hurt him. I wanted Logan I turned the fire in my mind into yearning. With each burn I wanted Logan more. I needed to wake up and find out what I did to make him so sad and distant? I chanted in my mind Logan, Logan until I woke up.
I opened my eyes and my vision was so clear? I rubbed at them thinking 'what the hell?' Logan laid next to me with my hand in his, he looked absolutely exhausted? I thought he was sleeping my insides were screaming at me to wake him up, but I chose not to. Who knew what I had done to make his voice sound so sad. I had only moved an inch before Logan snatched me into his arms clutching at me so tightly I thought I would pass out.
"Let go Logan" I said as nicely as I could.
"I will never let you go. You scared me" he said whispering into my ears.
"Loga.." I was interrupted.
Just as I spoke everyone and I mean everyone barged into my room. First my Father yanked me out of Logan's hold and hugged me tears flooding his eyes. I had never seen my Father cry I didn't like seeing him like that. My mother was worse she hugged me and repeatedly kissed me on the forehead she wouldn't let go until my father pried her hands off of me. I gave her a blank look, what was up with everyone? Kara was crying and talking hysterically to me. I patted her on the back with a confused face trying to calm her down. Even though she couldn't form one straight sentence I picked up clearly what she was trying to say- 'I thought you were going to die?' The second she was done hugging me Noah picked me off the ground in the biggest hug of all, he twirled me around. The strange thing was nothing blurred I could see everything around me with precision? God I felt confused, what was happening to me? Or better yet what the hell had happened to me?
"Don't ever do that again!" he said angrily to me.
"Do what? Why is everyone crying like I died?" I said confused.
Noah put me back down and I sat back on the bed, everyone looked at me with confused looks tears flowing everyone's eyes while I returned the confused look while waiting for an answer.
"Everyone out" Logan ordered.
Slowly everyone walked out, reluctantly I might add. I wanted to turn around and see Logan's face but I was too scared what had I done? Was he angry now that I was awake? I got up about to go into the bathroom when Logan appeared right in front of me.
"Do you remember what happened yesterday?" he asked me I moved my gaze to the ground. I'm such a coward, expressing my feelings was easier said than done.
I started racking my head and honestly I couldn't remember "No" I answered him. I felt frustrated all of a sudden and rested my hand on my neck I felt round lumps on me neck which confused me even more. What's on my neck?
"All I know is I hurt you. I'm sorry that I hurt you. What did I do? I feel funny" I said scratching my neck trying to rid of the lump. It didn't work. I still hadn't looked at Logan to scared of his expression.
Logan raced forward pushing my chin to meet his gaze. His light brown eyes were watering, his face was tortured, my heart panged. I had hurt him deeply.
"I..I'm sorry" I stuttered. I had never seen him like this.
"I love you. Do you know that?" he said cupping my face with his hands and resting his forehead against mine. I inhaled his breath on me, it filled me with warmth knowing he was okay, but I had hurt him.
"I do. I love you to" I told him. I expected my heart to increase in pace, when it didn't I felt weird? His touch always provoked that response in me.
"You nearly left me alone in this world. You made me know what it would be like without you. I should have been there for you. I'm sorry" he said letting the tears loss from his eyes. My hands instinctively reached out to wipe each of his tears away, I couldn't see him like this.
"I would never leave you" I answered with strength in my voice. He pushed his body closer to mine, heat swelled up in my face. Which bought me relief I felt like something was off about me this morning.
"Darius hurt you" Logan said as a statement.
"When?" I asked him confused.
"He hurt you, he stabbed your heart" Again another statement.
"I think your dreaming. I'm fine see" I said pulling out of his grasp so easily, I shook my head at that thought maybe Logan wasn't holding me that hard like he usually does. Logan looked at me and grabbed my waist. I felt as if he needed me to be close to him, I didn't try to push out I needed him to know I was okay. I needed him to be okay.
"I healed you" he said.
"How do you heal a stab to the heart? When I was in hospital you could have healed me instead of making me lay in bed for a month" I said jokingly to him.
"You bite" he said.
I didn't get it. Bite? How would a biittteee!
"You changed me!" I yelled at him. Again I got out of his grasp with such ease it was incredible. I could feel fury brewing inside me.
"Yes" he said proudly.
"You…You…changed me into a vampire?" I asked him in shock!
"I and Noah saved your life. Please accept it, it was the only choice we had. I couldn't let you die. I'm selfish I know. But love makes you do things you thought weren't possible" he said sadly.
I just stared at him, this entire time I thought I had hurt him.
"Is that why everyone was crying? Because I changed?" I said calmly. I needed my forgotten day back. I needed to understand why.
"You did die Kayla. You died right in front of me, but for some reason your heart started up on its own. Darius attacked you, he fled when My Father tried to kill him, he hurt you to buy himself sometime to escape and form a better plan" Logan said in a rush and then continued "your still Kayla. The only thing different about you now is you will be eighteen forever, you'll never hear you heart beat fast. Everything else is the same" he said trying to make me feel better.
I didn't know what to say or do, I just stood in front of him feeling lost my anger just sitting there doing nothing. Logan let more tears fall from his eyes I couldn't bear seeing him like this. Again I wiped the tears from his face, he grabbed my hand gently but firmly. I didn't pull away.
"Let me have time to absorb what I am now" I said calmly.
The old Kayla would have thrown a fit, but what was the point I was going to be changed anyway, at least I didn't have to remember the process of being changed only the fire of pain that came with it.
"Don't" Logan said suddenly.
I gave him a confused look.
"Don't be passive. I know you're mad just let it out. I wasn't there for you! Because of me you had to be changed against your will. Everything you do is against your will! I never ask what you wanted, I've taken your free will! I shouldn't have been so selfish I should have let you have your freedom! Just scream at me Kayla, just scream at me! I've been horrible to you. What you went through I wish I could have done it all for you. It's my fault that Darius hurt you! He knew to hurt you to get to me I should have never bought you here" Logan said with guilt dripping in every word he spoke. I could feel his emotions blasting at me all of a sudden. Logan's barrier had fallen his containment destroyed. His blood was flowing in my veins, which meant he had my blood too.
"Read my blood" I said softly to him staring deeply into his eyes.
He looked into my eyes and took in a deep breath. I felt the tug of his own blood calling onto mine he was reading into my emotions, digging at it. I knew what he was looking for.
"I don't hate you. Not even a bit. You did what you had to do to keep me alive. Yes I'm mad, but it's the stupid kind of mad. I'm not over it completely but I would never hate you for changing me. I get to be with you forever. That's if you still want me" I finished off.
Instantly Logan blasted me with love, lust and yearning. His eyes softened with relief he couldn't find what he wanted because hate for him was not in my heart. I only had love for Logan, my life was taken he saved me and gave me a new life, I hoped he still wanted me to be in his life. I had caused him to much trouble so far.
"Of course I want you" he said laughing and hugging me so tightly, he was holding me like he would never let go. I laughed at his reaction, crazy vamp.
The door slammed behind me and Logan I turned my head and saw Noah looking absolutely furious.
"Get down stairs Dedrick managed to find Darius" Noah said and walked back out slamming the door hard the frame shook.
Hope everyone is happy that Kayla is alive :)
