"What are you?" I asked in a trembling voice.
"A creature that you believe to be non-existant. I am a vampire."
"What do you want?" I asked again, in that trembling voice.
"I already told you. I want your blood."
I did the only rational thing in this type of situation. I screamed. I tried to runaway but he had me down within seconds.
"Let me go!" I struggled.
"No! I brought you here and you will not go freely."
He threw me against a tree, knocking the breath out of me.
"Foolish mortal. You can't escape a vampire."
"It doesn't hurt to try." I tried to run again but once more, he had me pinned down.
"I think this game is ending quite well."
He leaned in to bite my wrist and my whole arm began to burn like it was on fire. Then he moved my hair away from my neck, exposing it, and without warning-he bit down on my jugular.
I screamed so loud that I bet everyone within a five mile radius heard me. And before I knew it, I was in a black pit. I wanted to scream for help, but I couldn't find control to do so. I wanted to give in to the burning, but I knew I couldn't do that. I tried to grip onto anything, but once more, my control was not within my reach.

"Where's the freak Swan? I haven't seen her at lunch," I demanded to Alice and Emmett.
"Maybe you scared her off," Alice retorted.
I chuckled. "She's not that weak, Alice."
"Who knows? Maybe you finally got to her," Emmett said.
"She is not that weak, for the love of god!" I snapped.
"Geez, take it easy, bro," Emmett said with a worried tone. "You don't need to get defensive about it."
"Well," I shrugged. "I can take some time without her being around."
Oh boy, they really have no idea what's in store for both them and Bella.
R&R please! :)
