Bloody Secrets - 15 What is she?

SEAN LOCKHART

“Don’t mind it,” I said to Beatrice. I’m not going to kill her. Ace is in love with her and I won’t hurt the woman he loves. I’m just going to shoot her at the part of her body where it will look like I killed her.

I can point out where the critical parts of the body which can kill a person. I looked at Beatrice who’s still frowning until now. She’s still thinking why Aviana has that kind of birthmark. Even I was surprised and began to think of things.

Why does she have that?

I thought that kind of birthmark only exists towards… Never mind.

“If you can’t do it. I’ll do it.” I said to Beatrice who’s still holding the gun in her hands. Beatrice shouldn’t shoot her or else Aviana will die. I immediately snatched the gun from her and walked towards Aviana.

When I was finally in front of her, I pointed the gun to her chest. Even though she’s naked and it bothers me, I still came near her. However, I noticed that her complexion started to pale. I let go of my gun and hurriedly checked her pulse. Then that was the time that I noticed the number of wounds in her body, its turning blue. This surely came from a dagger. They stabbed her with a poisonous dagger. I looked at Beatrice but she just grinned at me. She ordered her assassins to do it.

“Now she’s dying.” She stated. Then there’s nothing I can do. I stood up and was about to walk towards Beatrice when I felt something weird inside the room. It felt like the atmosphere had changed. And a moment later, I heard a scream. Just before I know it, someone suddenly giggled at my back. It made me shiver.

I slowly turned my head to look behind my back and there I saw something that I can’t explain through words. I can’t even talk right now. All I did was stare at her. I wanted to step back and ran as far as I could but why is my body stuck in this position. I shivered even more when she looked at me.

Her other eye is turning red.

Red crimson eyes.

I tend to move again but shit I can’t move. I looked at Beatrice and like me, she can’t move also. I noticed her tears fell towards her cheeks, then she looked at me. She’s afraid, I am too.

“My end. It is only just the beginning.” Aviana stated frighteningly. But what’s even more frightening is that she is suddenly was in front of me. Very close. Gladly she killed one of the nurses whose Beatrice’s assassins a while ago, I heard her scream. Aviana killed her to cover her body with that woman’s clothes.

Damn it, Aviana!

Don’t fucking scare me to death.

“Now tell me…” She began to talk and paused.

“Do you want to die?” She added coldly. I can see flames burning from her red-eye. It’s so beautiful to look at but very dangerous to stare at. I shouldn’t have stared at her, now I feel like I’m gasping for air.

Can’t move…

Can’t talk…

Can’t breathe…

“This is what you did to me.” She said.

“Killing me is not easy.” She added and began to walk away from me. I fell on my knees then I tried to gasp for air. I can breathe now.

I immediately looked at where she was heading and now, she’s in front of Beatrice. What is she doing? Beatrice suddenly floated in the air and that made my body numb. Aviana’s not even touching her. She’s just looking at her with those eyes of hers.

Who the hell is she!

No!

What the hell is she!

I was surprised when Beatrice looked at me and smiled.

“Thank you.” She whispered and closed her eyes. The next thing I know is that blood flowed from her eyes, nose, and mouth. I trembled in fear. I can’t move my body even though I know that I can move it already. I looked at Beatrice’s assassins and they were just watching. Useless!

“What the hell are you all doing? STOP HER!” I shouted but they didn’t move from their positions. They’re scared.

“STOP IT!” I shouted at Aviana which made her look at me. I felt more terrified when she grinned at me. She slowly walked towards me while I tried to move my body away from her. However, I suddenly felt the door behind me. I have no way out. I’m cornered. I tried to open the door but it was locked.

Is this my end?

“I’ll stop.” She suddenly said. I moved away from the door but then, it suddenly opened. I thought it was locked?

I looked at Aviana and she proceeds to walk out of the room. Even though I can feel my knees trembling and the numbness continues to take over my body I tried my best to walk towards Beatrice. I immediately touched her pulse and I can’t feel anything. I tried to hear her heart and it’s not beating anymore.

“You shouldn’t have tried harming her, Beatrice. Now, look at what she has done to you.” I said and wiped all the blood at her face. I breathed heavily before putting her body at the bed of this hospital room.

After that, I hurriedly followed Aviana. I ran and searched for her. Hoping that I can catch up with her so that she can’t harm anyone in the hospital. Hence, I noticed that all the people that I saw were shock and crying. I think that they saw her walking in this corridor. I was about to talk to a doctor but I haven’t spoken yet when he immediately pointed a room. There I remember that it was Ace’s room.

No…

She will surely kill him…

She’s not in her right mind. I hurriedly ran towards Ace’s room and when I finally opened the door. I saw Aviana peacefully sleeping at a chair near his bed. I slowly walk near her and noticed that she’s holding Ace’s hand. She loves Ace, but of course, she knows that in the end. They can’t be together. I just continued to watch her from here, silently.

“I will leave soon.” She suddenly said. I think that she noticed me from the moment I got in. She’s not looking at me but she knows that I’m here inside the room.

“I’m afraid, I might harm him.” She added. I think that she’s crying because of her voice.

“You love him,” I said.

“He’s my everything.” She answered and finally stood up from the chair.

“I’ll let you live to protect him. In return, I’ll forget what you have done for me.” She said and turn around.

However, I was surprised when she suddenly ran towards the window and jumped. We’re on the fifth floor and it will surely break her bones if she jumped from here. I immediately ran towards the window to see and there she is, walking with a nurse’s outfit.

“It’s already morning,” I whispered as I looked at her.

I hope that we can meet again. And I hope that you and Ace can finally have happiness.
