Chereads / THE GREEDY BLOODLINES / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

(Logan's POV)

The kick made my head spin but I still stood strong. I did not look at him at all.

"Raise your head up!!" he said, stamping his foot on the ground. I did not utter a word nor did I make a move. Despite not looking at him, I could sense the shock in him and fear that I might rebel against him. "Raise your head up you fucking bastard!!" he repeated, this time around backing it up with a deep scratch on my face.

Now, I decided to obey and I raised my head up, slowly. Remember I said I could sense the shock in him? I was wrong.

Looking at him, I saw the ferocity and anger he had. His human body was now in the form of a werewolf. Fingernails had grown longer and more curved, eyebrows became full and met at a point, his whole body covered with hairs.

I had never seen my father this way so I trembled.

"I am sorry father! I am sorry." I said, going down on my knees Immediately. At this point, I was so scared.

"You have betrayed me! And I must retaliate!" he said. "You think you have the guts to go against my wish?! I would show you what it means to have such a mind," he added, as he went back to his seat. Looking at the vampire who was now okay a bit, he said "If you kill him, I would spare your life."

The man raised his head up slowly and looked at my father. He could not believe his ears just like I could not too. "I...I .... do not understand." he replied, stuttering. "I have decided to let you be but on a condition." my father said.

Pointing at me, he continued, "You have to kill him." "What the fuck!?" I exclaimed in my mind.

"Father, I...I.." "Shut up!" he said as he cut me off. "Now rise!" he shouted, referring to the man that sat on the floor. The vampire immediately stood and turned at me. I did not have the ability to read a person's mind but from the look on his face, I could tell he wanted to grab this opportunity.

He became determined and I began to see how fierce he was. I was afraid too but this was a life and death situation. If I do not fight back, I get killed. So, yeah, I did.

The vampire ran hastily to me as he clenched his fist. I rubbed my right foot against the ground like a cat digging a hole. Putting the other leg at the front, I growled like a wild animal ready to devour its prey.

I ran towards his direction and flew high before he could get to my spot. Stopping suddenly, I turned back to stab him on his back. He dodged quickly and gave me a jack on my neck. "Bastard!" I screamed, hitting his stomach and causing his body to hit the wall.

Landing on the wall, he stood immediately and threw his sword to him but I was quick to avoid getting stabbed. I laid on the ground and raised my two legs up to give him a kick while standing.

Seeing my next move, he held my legs and flung me to the metal that was used in cutting board woods. "You are a dead meat." I whispered after feeling a sharp pain in my bone marrow. I had been cut already but there was no time to care for my body.

I rose to run towards him. Picking a chain, I rolled it continually and used it to wipe him. Unknown to me, he already had a secret weapon and so we injured ourselves, synonymously.

We both fell to the ground, with blood staina all over the place.

*********

I felt a pressure on my ankles and wrists. Those areas of my body hurts so much that I became sick immediately.

Slowly opening both eyes, turned gently in a way that made me face the ceiling. I tried using my hands to run my eyes but I could not because they were tied with chains.

"What the heck is wrong?" I lamented to myself. After some minutes, I closed my eyes and opened them again. This time around, I could see clearly but I wish I had not gained consciousness. In front of me, I saw bones and meat of both vampires and werewolves. "Why am I here?" I asked aloud and was replied with the same question.

No one was there and so my voice echoed. "Shit!" I said, standing up immediately. I looked at my arm and saw marks that seemed everlasting. "This is not the mark I got from fighting with him, is it?" I asked because I was confused.

"Stand up!" a voice close to me was heard. I looked at my right hand side and saw someone familiar. "Get up and be strong." the voice spoke again. I thought I did not hear clearly when I thought it was a female. Just like my guesses, it was. "Who are you?" I asked to move back. I would have moved hastily but I had spent the last strength on fighting.

"Do not run from me, my daughter." the voice said, touching my thighs now. "Daughter? This one must be a crazy vampire." I muttered as I slapped her hand away from my lap. "Please do not run away from me." she said, sobbing. At this point, I felt weak and confused, not knowing what to do. All of a sudden, the chains binding my hands and legs were made loose.

A dim light illuminated the small room, making me see the female speaking to me.

"Mum?!" I exclaimed, covering my mouth. "Shhhh." she said as she used one of her fingers to cover my mouth too. "Please, do not let your father know of this okay?" she said. I quickly nodded in reply. I was too shocked to utter a single letter. "Good! Now, let us escape." she spoke, assisting me to stand up. I stood and was held by my hand.

Getting to the door, we opened it and almost got out when father saw us.

"Daddy, I can expla..." i had not finished my sentence when my mother's head was beheaded. I looked in horror. His action triggered my anger and I proceeded to stab him in the chest when I woke up in the prison.

"Mum, mum!" I shouted but no one answered. Then, I discovered it was a dream.

With my back on the wall, I sighed deeply, putting my head on my knees.
