Eight (Stevie Rae)

It feels like I'm sinking into nothing.

If only I could see him.

But he is the one who has caused you pain, Stevie Rae

But I love him.

That does not keep him from being a monster.

"Stevie Rae!"

I awaken.

Rephaim.

I turn to him, sliding on blood.

There's so much.

Rephaim-

His wings!

One of wings is broken.

The other is torn to shreds.

NO!

But the lake of blood around me does not touch him.

That means...

This is my blood.

All of this is my blood.

He is the one to cause you pain.

But why?

"Stevie Rae!"

It is not him calling my name.

It's Dallas.

With a crow bar.

Did you do this to him?

He reaches me and says, "What the hell happened?"

I turn my eyes to Rephaim.

Not to cause blame.

Because I'm worried about him.

Why isn't he moving?

I try to tell Dallas that Rephaim is not at fault.

Since I don't have to power to speak, he takes it the wrong way.

"I knew that there was still a damn Raven mocker here. But why the hell would he go after you? Of all people why you?"

Tears fall down his cheek.

Oh, Dallas. If only you knew...

Why didn't I say anything?

This is all my fault!

What will happen now?

Will I die?

No.

I can't die.

Because if I die, so does he.

Because of the imprint.

I can't do that to Rephaim.

I love him too much.

I'm going to save you from me, Rephaim.

It's the only thing I can do now.

"Dallas...," I whisper.

I have to do this.

"What, what do you need, Stevie Rae? Anything. I'm here for you. What is it?"

I touch his throat.

I have to do this.

"You need my blood, again?"

I nod weakly.

His gentle fingers cup my neck.

And as my face gets closer to his veins, my tears begin to fall.

I have to do this.

I glance one last time at Rephaim.

My love.

My only love.

I try to convey all of my love in our imprint, but he still remains unconscious.

"Once you have enough blood, Stevie Rae, I swear I that I will kill that damn Raven mocker."

If that's the case, I'll just have to take enough blood until you pass out.

You will not harm Rephaim.

I'll make sure of it.

At that moment, as I sank my teeth into Dallas, I hear someone stirring.

Rephaim has awakened.

_ So what happens next? Please review :3
