Enemies in Love: Chapter 3

I gave Lightning a meaningful look. He was still calling out to me. I realised I couldn't give way, so I did what I had to do. “Okay Scorpion, I'll go with you.” “Great.” I really hope he doesn't realise that I am a Wolfuman. Downstairs, I saw Lightning's saddened face. Sorry Lightning, but I have to save you. I promised and I am not going back on my decisions, I thought.

Upstairs, streams of light were just visible behind the black curtains. “This is your room,” said Scorpion. He opened a door emblazoned with bat wings. The room was indeed pitch black (no pun). “Thank you Scor.” “If there's anything, call me. I'm in the other room. And um... Do you want to change?” I looked at my outfit. “I'm fine, Scorpion.”

“Okay, goodnight beautiful,” he said and closed the door. Beautiful? Was he serious? That night, I fell into an uneasy sleep. About 5:00 p.m. , I felt a sharp pain in my neck. My eyes fluttered open and I came face to face with Scorpion. I touched my neck at found blotches of blood on my fingers. “SCORPION! That hurt!” “Sorry, I was hungry,” he said. “Don--”

I felt a sudden gust of pleasure. Scorpion had sunk his fangs back into my neck again, but instead of that sharp pain, I felt unusually comfortable. “I've never tasted blood that good before.” Scorpion had pulled away and wiped my blood off his pale cheek. “Do you want any blood to drink? You've just lost a gallon of blood there, Mare (my nickname),” he said, a look of concern in his eyes.

I fell back into my bed.

I woke up, facing the full moon. “You past out, Mare,” said Scorpion. “It's time for dinner in the banquet hall. C'mon.” Scorpion held my hand and we flew back to the floor. “My cousins are coming, mind. Most of them are Vampirs (girl vampires, boy vampires are called Voroy). You'll love them.”

“Okay, but will I get bitten again?” I asked Scorpion. “Maybe...” said Scorpion with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

“Hi Scorpion,” said a Vampir with her long, black hair tied up in a beautiful side bun. “Hi Monica. Mare, this is my favourite cousin, Monica Gray. Ica, this is Nightmare, my girlfriend,” he said. “Monica, could you um... give us a minute?” I pulled Scorpion away without waiting for a awnser.

“Scorpion, you never asked me to be your girlfriend!” “I did, and you agreed.” “When?” “When I sucked your blood. You felt great pleasure, and that symbolises that you are now mine, Mare,” he said, sounding as if this was extremely obvious. “I didn't feel any pleasure that night!” I lied. “Fine, we'll try again.

“This time, you have to tell me the way you feel.” He pushed my hair aside and lowered a sleeve of my black dress. “Scorpion, n--” He sank his fangs into my neck once more, kissing the “soft spot” as he sucked my blood. There went that wonderful feeling again. I enjoyed every minute of it. I grew weaker and weaker and fell onto the grass (we were in the garden).

“Scorpion, please stop... Please... Please... Sc--Scorpion...” He did not stop. He continued sucking the blood out of me. Soon, I was completely oblivious with pleasure. Still not stopping. “Scorpion.... Please....” After two hours of sucking, he finally pulled away. “So?”

I couldn't speak. I just lay there, wanting for more. He smirked, “I knew it. You like me.” I closed my eyes. “Never again, are you doing that.” “Why? You like it, I love it. Perfect combination.”

“You have to stop,” I said. “No, I won't,” he whispered into my ear and I'll let you guess what happened.

Three, two, one. Sucking my blood again.
