Remember people, let me know how I'm doing. What do you think? Is it great, good, ok, sucks?
Review and let me know.
"You ready for your daily dose of blood?" I nearly jumped up at the sound of John's voice.
I hadn't heard him come in. I let out a small sigh, I hated this part of the day but I also loved it. That's just sick isn't it?
I sat there, still chained as he brought me a large bag filled with moroi blood. It started out with human blood, then dhampire…and now this. I could tell each apart already by smell alone. I've even had a small dose of strigoi blood. I shivered, but what was worse was that I loved it all. I wanted more…I always wanted more. Not only did it numb the pain and thirst but it was delicious.
I was a blood sucking parasite, disgusting. I didn't want any at first… I was prepared to die from the pain before giving in. John shoved it down my throat and after that first taste…I just couldn't fight it. I'm horrible. I shivered again. After I had sucked the bag dry, I glared up at where John stood.
"So, how long do you plan on keeping me chained up? Still afraid of me?"
He smiled. "I'll let you go as soon as I stop getting that 'I want to strangle him' vibe from you,"
I sighed, guess he still thought I'd turn on him. I'm not saying he's wrong of course. I'd kill to get out of these chains.
I chuckled at my choice of words. John seemed to be under the impression that it had been something he said.
"Don't get me wrong, I could take you down, I have before." He stayed quiet for awhile and I had already begun to tune out his presence like I had been doing for these past few weeks. But his next few words surprised me, and it usually takes quite a lot to surprise me.
"I need you." I looked back up at him; he had a suspicious glint in his eyes.
"What the hell do you need me for? You've already ruined my entire life."
His grin widened. "Yeah, sorry about that, nothing personal of course…besides it's not so bad, I gave you immortality"
What good is immortality when you have no one to share it with? I glared up at him, careful not to break eye contact.
"It was personal to me." I spat out.
I've had about enough of this guy's crap. I mean how the hell can he seriously expect me not to turn on him, when he continues fucking around with me this way? I was usually able to contain my feelings…now it seemed impossible. My temper has been a lot shorter since I've awakened and I wasn't sure if that had to do with being a strigoi or just everything I had been through.
"You're the key, what I need to capture that Dragomir girl."
I just sat there gawking at him for a few moments. How the hell was I going to help him capture Lisa?
"What do you,-"The answer slammed me hard across the face before the question had time to form completely.
He was going to use Rose! Lisa would probably willingly walk into the hands of any strigoi if Rose's safety was concerned, as would Rose if the tables were turned.
I was the bait to lure in the bait. He was using me to get his dirty hands on Rose! If she did come to kill me, he planned to capture her, probably allowing her to kill me first. If that happens…she'd be alone. He'd torture her, do god knows what… Rose had already suffered enough at the hands of strigoi. I wasn't about to let her walk right into his clutches!
John let out a sadistic chuckle; he knew I had figured it out.
I had to get out of here, to find some way to warn her.
