N/A After a large amount of time, the long-awaited thirteenth chapter of Love Me Dangerously is finally here! Hope you guys like it and please review!
Chapter 13
The light in the feeble dungeon was dim, but light enough to see anything within a 15 feet radius. Bonnie woke slowly, not really wanting to come out of her daze. When she blinked a few times and saw where she was, though, she started awake- gasping quietly. She held her arms to her chest and tried to warm herself. Nothing made sense- she tried to remember what had happened. All she remembered was walking to school with Meredith and then Shinichi coming for them-
"Meredith!" Bonnie gasped, her eyes searching the space around her. "Meredith?"
"She's not here." A voice answered.
Bonnie shrieked and layed a hand over her chest. "Damon?" Bonnie asked meekly. "Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?" Damon shot back in his cool, dark ironical voice.
"I don't know why I'm here- though I'm sure you know that." Bonnie struggled to stand, but fell to her knees again.
"You and I alike."
"You mean you have no idea? I mean- it's like last time?" She took a deep breath and lifted one let to stand and then the next.
"Yes," Damon said, hurrying to catch Bonnie before she fell.
"Thanks." She muttered. "I don't know why I'm so weak." She looked around at the wide space they were kept in. "Where's Meredith?"
"I'm betting I know just as much as you."
"I wonder what he wants with us."
"I'm thinking some sort of ritual."
Bonnie shuddered.
"Whatever it is, I'm sure I can get us out anyhow."
Bonnie looked up at his face- it was just perfectly lit. She had forgotten how good-looking Damon was when he wasn't trying to kill her, right now they were on the same team- and he somehow looked different. His hair was shiny black- almost like liquid. His eyes like a starry night, and his chiseled features were something that only something inhuman and immortal should have.
That thought alone stopped Bonnie from staring and had her mind backtracking. They could never be on the same team! He was Damon. And as long as he stayed a vampire, then things could- would never work. Even if he was beautiful, and his words did something to her that no ones ever had, it still didn't change was he was- and that was a killer. He didn't care for humans- he proved that when he took her blood without her consent. He was a monster.
Bonnie pulled herself away from him and turned her back. "Do you have some sort of brilliant plan to get us out of this?"
"I was just going to ask you the same thing, mahoutsukai."
"Not funny, Damon." Bonnie said.
"I am certainly not Damon."
Bonnie gasped and turned quickly. "Oh my..."
"Hello, Bonnie." Shinichi was standing there with his hands clasped in front of him, wearing an all black suit. Damon was suddenly lying on the ground and he looked to be passed out.
Bonnie swallowed the tears in her throat and stood her ground in front of the kitsune. "What do you want from me?"
"A drop of your blood, a moment of your time."
"Never." Bonnie spit.
Shinichi smiled, "Your like a little fire light right now... Makes me want to keep you alive."
Bonnie stiffened. "Why are you doing this?"
The kitsune sighed, "I suppose it would be fair to tell you now ... But what fun would that be?" He smiled devilishly and his eyes flashed red. "Now, let's get you and the vampire above ground so we can meet the supirittsu!"
"The what?"
Shinichi flicked a long pale finger towards Damon and he started awake. "Nothing you need to worry about right now, mahoutsukai." He looked down at Damon then suddenly kicked him. "Get up, vampire! I have big plans for tonight that you just need to be awake for!" Shinichi flicked his finger and suddenly Damon was standing, "Now..." Shinichi tapped his finger to his chin. "Aha!" He flicked his finger and Damon suddenly grunted and went rigged and stiff. Shinichi ripped Damon shirt open and pulled out a long thick knife.
"No!" Bonnie screamed running towards Damon.
Shinichi hit his arm towards her and she fell back against the ground.
"Please, Shinichi, don't!" Bonnie cried.
The kitsune brought the knife back to Damon chest and cut a long line down his chest, Damon let out a loud groan. "This knife is the only knife that can penetrate skin like this," Shinichi said as he made another line, then another- all joining to circle he carved into Damon's chest now. Blood dripping down Damon's chest and collected at the waist of his black pants. "Though I'm sure you know this, mahoutsukai."
"Why are you doing this, Shinichi, why!" Bonnie cried.
"Because, mahoutsukai, I love Power." Shinichi finished making the star on Damon's chest and let him fall to the ground. Shinichi licked his knife clean of blood and then stuck it back in his pants.
"You know what he's doing?" Damon asked, looking at Bonnie with angry, tortured eyes.
Bonnie nodded, her face pinched and tears collecting in her eyes.
"Any sensible druid would know, vampire." Shinichi said, grabbing Bonnie's arm and pulling her up.
"I'm not a druid!" Bonnie spit.
Shinichi rolled his gold and red tinted eyes. "Get up, vampire, or die now."
Damon groaned, "I will not answer to you, kitsune!"
Shinichi's eyes flashed red, "Then I guess I'll just have to make you stand." Shinichi looked at Bonnie. "So sorry, mahoutsukai."
"What?" Bonnie gasped.
Shinichi brought his mouth down on Bonnie's red lips and moved his lips roughly against hers. Bonnie pushed against him and looked at Damon.
"Stop!" Damon bellowed, standing and striking Shinichi in one quick movement with vampire fast speed.
Shinichi fell to the floor, dropping Bonnie. The kitsune smiled and wiped the blood from his mouth, "You really shouldn't have done that!" He laughed, looking away.
Bonnie's heart bead against her ribs, she moved closer to Damon.
Still laughing, Shinichi turned his head towards them, he stopped abruptly when his eyes met Bonnie's. She gasped, Shinichi's eyes were blood red, and his expression was one of a cold, ruthless killer.
