I woke on my back, bright spots dancing in front of my eyes. Becky and Matt stood over me. When my eyes opened Becky gasped and crouched beside me worriedly.
"Raven oh are you okay? I thought you were joking when you said they were vampires! Jagger..." That was when I felt something trickling down my neck. My fingers reached up and came away bloody. My world spun in circles and my hand clamped over my throat
"No! no this can't be, Alexander was supposed to be the one..." Becky looked confused as I jumped to my feet. All ready I could feel the changes in my mouth and blood. When I pulled my hand away the blood was dry. I had stopped bleeding. "Alexander" I called miserably. He was standing over Jagger who was howling with laughter, the laugh was triumphant and cold. Alexander turned to me and his deep brown eyes were sad and sorrowful
"Raven" he whispered and held his hand out, his spider ring glistening in the moonlight.
"What's this? You kids partying here. What's with all these cans I'm calling the police!" Everyone bolted, except Trevor, Matt and Becky. The students of Dullsville High had no idea what had just happened. not even Trevor. His green eyes were narrowed at Jagger his bravado bursting from his chest.
"Raven why did Jagger bite you? and what was he talking about, Alexander shaming his family?" Becky was staring at me imploringly wanting to know everything, but I couldn't tell her what she had just witnessed, what Jagger, Luna, Alexander and now I had become.
"Um Beck you guys better get out of here, I'll explain later please go before Old Jim gets you, I'll be okay." Becky looked at me skeptically but raced away with Matt, but not before giving me a big heart filled best friend hug. I turned to the others. Jagger and Luna were standing beside one another, smiles on their faces. Alexander started toward me
"Not so fast Sterling, she's mine now so back off. My princess of darkness" he smiled and his green and blue eyes shone. Trevor frowned
"What are you talking about you freak?" he demanded before Jagger turned his hypnotic gaze on him and Trevor fell to the ground.
"What did you do to him" I demanded. Trevor may be a pain but I didn't want anything bad happen to him. Jagger just smiled and Luna grabbed hold of Alexander's arm
"Now you are his forever and ever and Alexander..." Luna leaned over to him and spun, before bursting into laughter.
"Get off of him Luna he isn't yours. Alexander what do I do?" I exclaimed but by the sad look on his face I knew I wouldn't be able to do anything
"What is done is done, nothing can change this. it was sacred this bonding, now you are mine. Back to Romania we will go Sterling, you have my promise." then turning to me Jagger smiled slyly "we'll need to finalize this of course, like I said before I have destroyed Sterling and gained an eternal partner." Luna took a deep breath and moved away from us, her ghost white hair shimmering in the moonlight. She coughed once and looked down disdainfully at Trevor.
"Jagger can we get out of here, he's starting to rise and my throat is getting clogged." as soon as she said that I could feel a clogging in my throat, blocking my air from its passage. the smell was overwhelming even though it was only a little, this must have been how Jagger had felt when Trevor showed up yelling, or how Alexander did when I had accidently spilled my garlic powder in his attic room. At the memory my throat closed and I could no longer smell the garlic. Jagger put his hand on my arm and tugged me. Alexander looked wretched. I pulled away from him
"Wait, you two came to dullsville to find Luna a mate, yet now you have one." I wanted to gag at that sentence but forged onward "Now what will she do?" Luna looked perplexed at that but turned to her twin, confidently.
"Jagger?" she said wonderingly. He smiled at his sister
"Don't worry about a thing sis, I haven't forgotten about you." I jumped in the conversation right away. maybe if I could get them against each other, Alexander and I would find a way out of this
"But Luna, he doesn't you already made it plain you don't have any need for Trevor and there is no one else." I hoped. Luna again looked to her brother, who was turning pink
"Luna don't listen to her she's just trying to distract us, its okay I've always come through for you right?" she looked uncertain for a few more moments then smiled at him
"Of course I believe you Jagger, now what do you say we pack this thing up and go, Alexander wants us to leave Dullsville, so we will." Alexander spoke
"You're not leaving with Raven."
"But I think I am, you know the rules Sterling, you tried to play the game and you lost, get over it. She's mine now." I looked to Alexander's pale and mournful face and knew it was no use. I would have to go with Jagger, back to Romania. Alexander would stay in Dullsville..."
"Hey Alexander, since your feud is obviously over with the Maxwell's, shouldn't you be able to return to Romania with us." I got the message through with my eyes and saw Alexander come to an understanding with me.
"Of course."
"But she's still mine Sterling and Luna, once we return we will find you a mate, I promise." she still stared hopefully at Alexander, but then her gaze turned to her brother and she looked up adoringly. She really did love him more than life. With that Jagger tugged my arm. I still resisted
"You can't just take me away, my family will wonder, the whole town will wonder." Jagger laughed
"Really monster girl, I don't think so. Your parents will be told you won a scholarship and moved to Romania and all the people who hate you will forget about you either way. Don't you think" he was right he could hypnotize my family to believe they wanted me to go to Romania and no one would care why, except Alexander. Jagger had thought this through. Then something hit me in the stomach. No doubt all vampires had these hypnosis powers. Why hadn't Alexander just done the same? He always managed to get out of talking of his supernatural gifts and always put off turning me. It wasn't like my parents would know. Then I turned to Alexander and saw something in his eyes I had never seen. I couldn't place it at first but I soon got it, don't worry I got it. This time I let Jagger succeed in pulling me away from Alexander, because I couldn't take the look in his eyes. he knew I knew it too and he had a mixture of shame in those chocolate brown eyes of his. Eyes I had grown to love. I saw Luna lean up against him and smile coyly
"Don't worry Alexander if I can't find my true love in any other guy, I'll come back for you. Or maybe you'll see things differently. My way T.T.F.N.!" and with that we were gone. Jagger and Luna took me back to the tree house and Luna held my arm in a vice while Jagger removed the coffins and other assortments from it. I felt my eyes prick. My little brother and his nerd mate could play up here now without the worry of coffins and teen vampires, which I had now become against my will. Once in the safety of Jagger's car he allowed me to sit in the front seat with him while Luna bounced in the back humming to herself.
"Where are we going, to Romania tonight?" I still couldn't help but feel hurt and betrayed. Also so very tired. He shook his head at me and started the engine. Luna answered cheerfully
"Oh no we're going to the next town over."
"Hipsterville? To your apartment." Jagger didn't answer, Luna continued
"Yes for a little while until we can arrange transportation back home, don't worry Raven, you'll love our home. It's huge! You can party all night with us oh and meet Valentine! you'll love him." I couldn't help the tears in my eyes I also couldn't help having them fall. Luna frowned and tapped my shoulder "don't worry it was for the best Raven and its done." I tuned Luna out and instead looked out the window. Dullsville was passing by.
"Wait! My parents aren't you going to go and influence them, I have to say goodbye at least. Please." I turned to look at Jagger and saw that his jaw was clenched. Luna sighed and ran her fingers through her candy floss white hair.
"Fine, I was going to do it myself but I can afford you some courtesy. We will go to your family and you can say your goodbyes, but then we go understand." his voice was hard and deep. but Luna shivered and pat his head
"Don't be mean Jagger." and he smiled slowly. We rounded the corner to my house and Jagger parked a bit up the street. We got out and make our way up to the little house I would never see again Jagger kept our hands entwined but I felt it was only to keep me from running. But I wouldn't run, not with them so close to my family. I fished for my keys while they waited patiently by my side. When finally I found it, I shakily put in the key hole and turned it. I head the faint click and felt the soft wind as the door flew open.
"Raven is that you?" I heard my mom call and Jagger swept his arm aside
"After you." I couldn't speak the only thing I could do was take a deep breath and walk through the front door, the twins following. My mom came around the corner talking
"Raven where have you been I told you not to be out too late…oh my!" my mom stopped and shock registered on her face. I could almost imagine what she was thinking as she took Luna and Jagger in
"Hello Mrs. Madison, it's very nice to meet you." Jagger said politely and flashed his fangs. My mom took one more look at him before she fainted dead away. Oh shit
So here you go a much longer but still short chapter, I'm formulating ideas all I know is that I want Jagger and Raven together and Luna with someone other that Alexander, cuz lets face it. He'll never love her. Least of All I love you is being typed right along side this little chapter. I was thinking of making a series but I'm not sure. Damon and lily are my fav. Characters to write about but I might throw some Elena and Damon in there somewhere...maybe even Katherine. As much as I love the show, i don't know if I'm ready to write about it yet, so I'll stick to the books...lol so tell me what you think of this little thang and about my Damon and lily series I might put a little sample up...who knows lol
As for this lil ditty, I wanted to get something on Jagger and Luna. They are brother and sister but they don't really act like it in the books so in my story they will always have each others backs
