Angel POV.
I got to bed, and I was ready to sleep the sleep was almost here, but I was too tired to fall asleep right away, I was staying away for just a little bit more, and then I was on the verge of sleeping, I was almost there when I heard my door open and that made me jump up with fear, I sat up and looked at whoever is at my door and I saw that it’s Dylan.
“What are you doing here?” I asked him confused, and he told me to sleep, were there strings attached to my staying in here, if I knew I wouldn’t be this relaxed, I would make sure to be up, to be attentive, but I trusted the vampires again, what a wrong move.
“We need to move, and we need to move quickly,” he says and I looked at him confused but I did get my ass out of the bed, I moved toward him, and he held my hand and dragged me out of the room, toward another room while I looked, and felt like a deer stuck in the headlight.
“Dylan,” I say with fear.
“You don’t have to worry, I’ll keep you safe,” he says, but safe from what? I wasn’t sure what we’re running from but his words made me feel terrified now.
“What are we running from?” I ask him next, not sure where or why.
“There are some humans that are running wild in the building, we need to get you to a safe room so I can deal with them,” he says, so it’s humans we’re worried about. I thought the humans were the weaker species out there.
“Okay,” I agreed with him, but my fear had me running with him, walking with him, not really sure where to.
Dylan came in front of a door, opened it and told me to get in, it’s a small room, it got a small bed and a small desk with a chair set in front of it, a mini fridge and some water bottles lying around next to the door was a big red button, I looked at Dylan with confusion, this looks like a panic room out of some old movies they had going on the tv.
“You’re going to stay in here, don’t open the door unless you hear my voice, and when I say it’s me, you hit the red button to let me in,” Dylan says looking out of the door, we could hear some noises now, and that scared me even more.
“Dylan, please stay with me,” I beg him with fear, having him around would make me feel much better.
“I’m sorry princess, I need to deal with all of this, maybe try and sleep, I’ll be back in a bit,” he assures me, pushing me in and then closing the door, it was locked behind me, the only way to open it was the red button that said open, and I didn’t want to open it, I was terrified, waiting for this whole thing to end and for Dylan to be back.
I knew this door was made of steel, I knew it couldn’t be open, that it would keep me safe, but it didn’t break the sound travelling in here, I could hear everything that was going outside, I could hear the screams of terror, the yells of attack and then I could hear something else, I didn’t have a classification for those noises, were those the sound of bone cracking? Of skin being torn open, or what was it really, I knew all the noise sounded too familiar to the violent noise in the movies, but were they real noises or was I just imagining things?
I took a seat on the bed, I couldn’t fall asleep, I was awake the whole time, my eyes wide open looking at the door waiting to see if they’d come in here or if they’d get farther away from the room, I had no way of telling the time, nothing but the anxiety that’s telling me it’s been too long but not long enough, it has hardly been any time, I had no idea how long have passed, but I felt everything at the same time.
I placed my back against the wall to give myself some support listening to the noises out there, I think I have dozed off or maybe it’s the fear that got to me and I blacked out for a bit, not too long, or maybe it’s too long, again my anxiety is controlling my time reception.
I woke up to a big boom noise, it was just against my door, I stood up and moved toward the door, I placed my ear against the door and I heard another bang, I fell down on my ass, putting both hands over my ear trying to make the humming noise to stop.
“We got one down, come on let’s get ours and get out,” someone yells.
“I know he hid her somewhere, I need to find her,” the other person says, who are they talking about what did Dylan hide, other than me?
“Come on you bloodsucker where did you hide her?” the first one yells.
“She’s not here, and you’re not going to win,” this time it was Dylan’s voice, was he hurt, did they do something to Dylan, I wanted to get out and save Dylan he was nice to me the whole time, he was there for me and now he’s being hurt.
“Oh, we’re going to lose, suck on this bloodsucker,” the other person says, now I knew for sure it was a human and Dylan, and then I heard the noise of a bullet, I knew it was a bullet, and I didn’t care if it was Dylan who shot or got shot at, but my instinct said to go out there and save him, and for once I’m obeying the primal me.
I clicked the red button letting the door open and I ran out, I ran to save Dylan, I saw him lying on the ground with a big red wound on his shoulder, I ran toward him, tears starting to fill my eyes, I couldn’t see anything, just the blurry vision of him, he was hurt and I had to save him, I had to keep him safe.
“We found her,” someone says from behind me, the voice is clearer now and I can tell it is the human guy’s voice, and he was too glad about finding me, how did they even know about me?
“Let’s go girl,” the guy said behind me, but I kept on crying, trying to get to Dylan, needing Dylan.
“No, no, no, no…” I yelled as I was dragged, he wasn’t alone, he had some other human with him but the others didn’t talk, only he did the talking, they all dragged me out of the white house, they had two vans waiting for them outside, they were just some generic vans.
They threw me in the back with other humans, but I was the only one fighting wanting to stay back while the others were happy about being here, everyone had guns ready and they were too happy about this while I cried.
“What are you crying about girl, you’ve been saved,” a guy next to me says as I continue crying, I wasn’t saved, I’m being captured here.
“She’s the bloodsucker girl, keeps an eye on her,” the human who got me, the one who killed Dylan and dragged me out here says.
“Caleb, how did you even find her,” the first guy says with a laugh, he’s too happy about this.
“We saw her, we saw him cuddling her, and I heard she’s his new pet, and look at her crying, she just wants the bloodsucker attached to her neck again,” Caleb says.
“He didn’t bite,” I say between sobs he didn’t try to bite me or even go near my neck, I felt safe around Dylan unlike them, they are the kind of people that terrorized me my whole life, the reason I closed and locked my door whenever I was home, out of fear of that kind of people.
“Liar, it’s the bite that gets you all addicted, you want to live as some pet? Locked in a cage the whole day, only coming out to serve your master sick kinds,” Caleb says in a cold voice, while I shook my head no, I knew that it wasn’t the truth, Dylan would never do that to us, not to me, I knew better than that.
“No, Dylan won’t,” I yell at him, he can’t keep saying that, I knew he would never.
“Yes he would, you know too well, we saved you girl, just be happy that you’re safe now,” Caleb says taking his seat, talking to the other humans and ignoring my tears, I had no idea where we were going but wherever it is they were too happy about it.
