Chapter 14 - Blood Lust

After they were done for the day, Abel went to play with Perry but just as it was about to get dark, they both went their separate ways instead of going home, Abel went straight to Mr. McCray's place where he continues with his training. Meanwhile downtown the mysterious lady was also taking innocent lives.

"Still haven't seen him today, but this is the route he took yesterday so why is he not here" said the lady to herself after she was done feeding.

After leaving the scene, she begin to contemplate if she should go straight to his apartment and get him but decided against it since she is already full and decided to come for him whenever she is hungry.

"Achoo" Abel let out a sneeze during his training.

"who could be thinking of me at this time" he said after wiping his nose.

"It could be your mother or sister who is thinking about you" reply Mr. McCray.

"I doubt that little devil will be thinking of me" said Abel as he prepare to continue with his training.

"I think we should stop here since it is already getting late" Said Mr. McCray.

"Why don't we just go for a round before calling it a day" asked Abel.

"I would but the town is no longer safe and since we don't know what we are dealing with, I'm not certain that you are out of danger" replied Mr. McCray.

Knowing that there is nothing he would say that would make his teacher change his mind so he quickly change into his school wearing before leaving. On his way home, Abel begin to watch his environment in hope of finding the lady but unfortunately, there didn't seem to be any sign of her in the vicinity.

"Thank goodness she is not here" said Abel as he let out a sigh before increasing his pace and before long he is already at home.

In the morning came another news of dead bodies found in town and this time around it seem to be a daily occurrence. After he was done with breakfast, he took his leave for school since he is already late but when he arrived at his class, he was surprised to see that Perry is also late which is unlikely of him.

Right after taking his seat, that is when Perry walk into the class with bruises all over his body and seeing the sight before him, Abel couldn't help but ask.

"who did this to you".

"give it a rest man there is nothing you can do if you were to know who is responsible for my injuries" reply Perry as he took his seat.

The moment he took his seat, Abel suddenly felt the smell of blood and his blood lust begin to increase while his eyes begin to glow with his fangs coming out. noticing that he is losing his sanity all for the smell of blood, Abel quickly place his head on the desk to hide his appearance from his friend.

"Are you okay man?" asked Perry seeing his friend acting strange.

"Yeah I'm fine, just had a little toothache" replied Abel.

"Okay man" said Perry.

"Why don't you get your wound treated before they get effective" asked Abel as he still placed his head down while trying to control his lust.

"come on man it is just a bruise, so how can it get affected" replied Perry with a chuckle.

"I am telling this because it is making me sick" said Abel as he groan.

"O…kay if you say so" reply Perry and now he was sure that something was wrong with Abel.

Just as Perry was about to leave, the teacher suddenly came in and he had no choice but to seat. Seeing that Perry was still in the classroom, Abel suddenly dash out of the classroom not caring if there was a teacher since he can't control himself anymore.

Every one of them in the classroom including the teacher was surprised to see Abel acting this way and couldn't help but turn to Perry who has always been his seatmate and friend for explanation only for them to see the other party was also in shock.

Meanwhile, Abel who has just run out of the lecture, makes his way straight to Mr. McCray's office as he didn't bother to knock before getting in which really annoyed him.

"Have you no manners boy, this is my office and not your home where you can just come in as you like" said Mr. McCray.

"I'm sorry Mr. McCray that I forgot to knock, I just had to get out of that class" replied Abel as he sat on the ground with a bead of sweat on his face.

"Did you get into trouble with one of the teachers and decided to hid in my office?" asked Mr. McCray.

"That is not it Mr. McCray" reply Abel as he could feel the urge he had for blood recently suddenly quench.

"If that is not the case then what is it" Mr. McCray asked as he begins to run out of patience.

"it's my bloodlust, someone was wounded in my class and I couldn't help but want to take a bite at him" reply Abel as he begin to explain to him.

Mr. McCray couldn't help but shake his head as he feel a headache coming.

"it's a good thing you left the class else you would have blown your secret and at the same time take a life" he said.

"Is there any way for me to control it?" asked Abel.

"it is impossible since you are a new turn and has yet to associate yourself with blood, it would take you months before you will be able to control your blood lust" reply Mr. McCray.

"how am I going to focus on learning when my nose can easily catch the smell of blood" said Abel as he gave up the thought of going back to the classroom.

"well just think positively to distract yourself whenever you are in a situation where you can't control yourself" suggested Mr. McCray.
