Chapter 5
Caden's POV
I was about to rip off Leo's jaw, then I heard Ashley shout my name. I looked right and saw that she had just fainted.
"Oh my gosh, Ashley!" I yelled out.
I turned to Leo and told him to get out and never come to my room again.
Quickly, I sprinkled water on Ashley's face but she wasn't responding. It made me very nervous, my tummy started turning me, Leo's claws had actually pierced through Ashley's skin. She had lost a lot of blood, which made her very weak and unconscious.
I carried Ashley in my hand into the car as I rushed her into the car.
It's a Vampire city but we had a just for humans, just in case the slaves got Ill or injured.
I rushed to the hospital, I carried her out of the car, carried her and ran with her. It took me just half a second to do that. The nurses saw that her case was very critical and took her to the Accident and Emergency ward to rescue her.
Then I also realized my arm was bleeding but it was not closing up as fast as expected. It was where Leo had scratched me during the fight.
"Damn it, that bastard! If Ashley hadn't fainted I'd have killed him", I thought to myself, as I was still very furious with him.
His biggest mistake was trying to drink from my slave. He had made many mistakes in the past which I had looked away from.
I went to the blood bank of the hospital to drink some blood and stop my bleeding. As soon as they were done treating my injuries, I went downstairs to check on Ashley. She had already woken but they said they couldn't discharge her yet because of her condition. It only got better, it's not the best.
" How are you feeling Ashley? I'm sorry for what Leo did to you. I trusted him to take you to the room, but he's just a failure" I said, in a bit of anger.
"No , I'm sorry for not eating up fast to return to the room before you went for work" she said, very softly.
This is the problem I have with her. She always blames herself for what she hasn't done wrong.
The doctor told me I could leave and return to pick her up the next day.
I returned to the mansion and as soon as I got to my room, I removed Leo's face from the door lock.
"When Ashley returns I'll put hers there" I said to myself.
I had lots of work to do today at the office but I couldn't do it , all thanks to Leo. He's my brother and he did that rubbish with my slave. I hadn't even drunk from her before. He's so lucky I got there in time because if he had drunk from her , I'd have slit his throat.
I was very stressed, so I decided to take a shower to cool my head off. After I was done bathing, I changed my clothes to something free then I sat on the balcony to get fresh hair and cool my head more.
"I want to have a cup of chilled blood from the freezer but damnit Ashley isn't here to get it for me and I am too tired to get up" I thought.
I just decided to chill on the balcony. The fresh breeze would do too. Then all of a sudden I heard a knock at the door.
"Who is it?" I asked reluctantly.
" it's Dana".
I rolled my eyes immediately, I was already having a bad day and Dana was the last person I wanted to see. She's Leo's close friend and I really didn't know what she wanted to talk about. It was probably about Leo.
I was very tired and she came at the wrong time but I just had to get up and open the door.
"What do you want?" I asked in a very harsh tone.
"Nothing, I just came to check up on you because Leo told me you both fought with each other" she said.
" I'm good thank you, bye!" I said,as I slammed the door on her face.
I was already going back to sit down on the balcony when she knocked again. At that point, I couldn't hide my frustration.
"What do you want from me?!" I said. Immediately, I opened the door.
"I-I-I-I uh-uh just wanted to talk to you about something. May I come in please?" She muttered.
"Yes you may"I said, with less energy as I rolled my eyeballs.
She headed straight to my bed to sit on it. It was annoying because I had couches she could choose to sit on, but no, she chose the bed.
"Pls sit on the couch" I said, in annoyance.
"Oh okay I'm sorry" she said
"Yeah it's no problem" I replied.
"So what is it you wanna talk about?"
"I just wanted to ask you if we could be close friends" she said.
was really uninterested in all her nonsense, but I just kept up with it.
" We are already friends, we can't be closer than this". I said
" Why can't we be closer than what we are?" She said seductively as she wrapped her fingers around my neck down to my chest.
I was really pissed off and irritated. Why would she seduce me? It's very irritating.
"Because I don't want to be" I said , as I removed her fingers from my body.
" Now, if you'll excuse me, I have lots of work to do". I said, as I opened the door, pointing outside the room and gesturing she should leave.
"Are you chasing me?" She said, in a manner she thought was cute which wasn't to me.
"Yes, now please leave" I said, holding her hands and leading her out. Finally, I shut the door and had some peace.
I was still on the balcony thinking about how badly I injured Leo. I really felt bad for him. He's my brother. I shouldn't have treated him that way but it was his fault anyway.
Abruptly, I started noticing changes in the sky, the stars were disappearing and the moon started to turn red.
"What the fuck!, The blood moon, Ashley!" I yelled.
It was the blood moon and Ashley was in the hospital where Vampires were too.
My fangs started to grow longer and my thirst for blood started increasing. I had to run to the hospital to save Ashley before other Vampires sucked her dry and before I fully transformed to my full Vampire form. At the same time, I couldn't resist my urge to drink blood.
I ran into the car as fast as I could before it was too late. I drove the car as fast as I could. On a normal day, I am faster than the car because we Vampires have a very fast speed, but the car was safer for Ashley and me.
On my way, I saw fully transformed Vampires bursting out of their mansions and houses one by one just in the search of blood. Those Vampires were obviously stronger and faster than me because I was not fully transformed and it wouldn't matter to them if I was the mayor's son, because at this point they can't think for themselves, they would still try to attack me if they don't find other ways to get Blood.
I saw a vampire running after my car from the side mirror, then I took my bat and threw it at him to distract him, then I zoomed to the hospital. As soon as I got there and got down from the car, my back started aching severely. I could not withstand the pain so I fell. My backbone cracked and my shirt tore, then wings grew out of it. My eyes were as red as hell but I still had to save Ashley. There were many dead humans on the floor as I walked through the human section with pain all over my body and worries.
I went to Ashley's bed. I didn't find her. My body temperature became colder. Then I saw a small piece of her cloth on the floor and blood was on the bed like someone had struggled with her.
My chest was hurting real badly and my entire body was filled with rage. It was a heartbreaking moment for me.I got wild and I couldn't control myself anymore. I got fully transformed, my eyeballs turned black and my veins popped out of my skin. I started attacking only Vampires for their blood and killing them because of what they had done to poor Ashley.
My entire body was filled with rage. I attacked every single Vampire I saw outside the hospital.
I was biting a vampire, then I saw the dress Ashley wore to the hospital covered with blood then I left him and went to pick it up. It was torn all over.I fell to my feet as tears rolled down my eyes.
It's all good". A voice whispered into my ears.
