*Whispers in the Dark*
chapter 17 / ♥ / ♥ /
Zachariah looked at me nervously. I turned
from him and walked over to his bed and sat down. He made a
face, as if he had only imagined something that was now
happening.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. It’s just, I’ve imagined you
sitting there and I didn’t think it would ever come
true.” Okay, I just freaked myself
out.
“Oh.”
“Yeah.” He walked a little closer and stopped at
the foot of the bed. I reached forward and pulled him down
beside me. We had been sitting there for a few minutes, when
he grabbed my hand, which was lying between us. He turned his
head to look at me, a smile playing around the corner of his
lips.
“What?”
“It’s nothing.” Before I could stop myself,
I leaned forward. Our faces were an inch apart, and getting
closer. I was just about to rest my lips against his when he
sighed and pushed me away.
“What is it? What’d I do? Did I do something
wrong?”
“Dasha, you can’t just do that. I’m a
vampire. You have no idea how easy it would be for me to lose
control and kill you.” He got up, letting go of my hand
as he did so, and walked across the room. He sat down in a
chair next to a bookcase. He looked at me.
I looked at him. He was freaking out. If he couldn’t
control himself for something as simple as that, then I
couldn’t trust him. I knew if I couldn’t get a
simple kiss, then I couldn’t get anything more. I got
up from my position on the bed and started towards the
stairs.
“Where are you going?”
“The Bathroom. Don’t worry about it.” I
walked up the steps, but instead of going to the bathroom, I
continued on past the kitchen, out the front door, and down
the steps.
Zachariah’s Point of
View
I
waited for Dasha to come back for twenty minutes, when the
door opened.
“There you are. I was beginning to worry...” My
words were cut off at the realization that it wasn’t
Dasha. Instead, it was Kirsten.
“Where’s Dasha?”
“That’s what I was coming to tell you. I just saw
her. She left. I don’t know where she is, all I know is
that she was walking down the road, when some guy stopped and
picked her up.”
“What guy? What’d he look like?”
“I don’t know. He was human though.”
“Is she okay?” Kirsten suddenly got a faraway
look in her eyes.
“He’s taking her somewhere. An old apartment
building. It’s really run down.” She spoke
through the vision. “He’s pulling her out of the
car. There are others.” She suddenly came back, and her
eyes shifted to me. “You have to save her Zachariah.
Before it happens. They are going to force her into... and
then kill her.” I didn’t need her to say the
words to know what they wanted. I ran up the stairs at
vampire speed with Kirsten trailing behind
me.
A/N I'm guessing no ones reading by the lack of
faves I'm getting. I tried out wattpad but im not getting
any reads there either. Wow. My stories must really
suck.
