Bloody Secrets - 32 It's not my faul

LANCE FORD DE LAVE

I had three, maybe 5 bottles of brandy but I’m still thinking straight. I’m finally heading home but it’s already 3 in the afternoon. I’ve been drinking last night at the club. Even though they were supposed to close, I told them not to or else I will let them close forever. I carefully parked my car then got out when one of our men once approached me again.

“Sir.” He started but I nodded as an answer. I know what he wants to say. He seems to understand I mean because he walked away. I will head to his office later. I need to see her first.

I head upstairs and went straight to her room. I was about to knock but I heard footsteps heading towards the door, so I waited. After a second, she finally opened the door. Her eyes widened by surprise. She didn’t expect me to be here. I looked at her from head to toe. She still looks the same, she’s still pretty as ever.

Hence, she seems to be heading out. I’ve been forbidding her to go out of the mansion. I might have overdone restricting her. She might be suffocated because she wants to sneak out while I’m gone. I looked at her face once again. Her face began to worry.

“What is it, Lance?” She asked calmly but I pulled her wrist. She will hate me for this but I think that this will be the last day that I might see her. I will try to take her away after this and after I explain it all to her.

I dragged her to the dungeon. It smells blood in here because of the people we have tortured and killed but no one will interrupt us here. I pulled her inside to one of the chambers and pushed her to the bed. It might have hurt her because the bed was made out of metal. She looked at me but I just looked at her seriously.

I’m going crazy. The brandy is finally working. My body is moving on its own. All I can think about is her. I started kissing her. From her lips on to her neck. I heard her gasp but she didn’t complain. However, even though she pleads me to stop this, I won’t stop. I decided to rip all her clothes so that when we finish she can’t run away without me.

“NO!” She finally shouted and tried to push me. I stopped for a bit but she didn’t seem to notice because she still keeps on pushing me.

I don’t want to stop Ava. I continued what I’m doing. I played with her body from head to toe. I kissed and touched every part of her body. Until I noticed her shaking. I looked at her for a second but she’s not crying. She’s not doing anything.

Hence, I saw her look at me. She seems about to cry. Damn it, Ava! I took off my clothes. She was stunned because of that. I can see it by the way her eyes widened by surprise. Then she started to stand up but I pushed her to the bed once again.

“NO!” She shouted again.

“NO! Stop this Lance.” She still tried to stop me by holding my face. She is looking through me. I’m sorry Ava. I shove her hands away from my face and look to her body. Her fragile body which I’m breaking. I finally thrust myself on to her. I did it over and over again. I don’t want to stop.

However, I feel like I’m about to sleep. I’m getting tired. I finally stopped and looked at her. She fell asleep already. I breathed heavily as I lied down beside her. I took a glimpse of her face once again. She’s peacefully sleeping. I came near her and stole a kiss from her lips.

“I’m sorry Ava. I hope that you can forgive me but tomorrow. I promise we will leave this place, together.” I said and lied down once again.

I woke up realizing she’s not beside me anymore. I immediately stood up and wore my clothes on. I run towards her room but she isn’t there. I was about to run once again when our men stopped me from doing so by blocking my way.

“He’s waiting Sir.” He stated. I had no choice but to come with them. He might know where she is. When we were finally inside her office, I saw him smiling devilishly. I don’t like that smile.

“You’ve done well.” He stated and snickered a laugh.

“W-What do you mean?” I asked. My voice was trembling. He did something to her. She might be in trouble. Hence, I noticed Sophia sitting down the chair across him playing with a little black bottle. No! My knees started to weaken.

“Did you use your whip well?” He finally asked which made me turned into a statue.

“W-What did you do?” I asked. I can feel my voice cracking. I’m trying not to cry in front of him because he did something to her. He did something by using me.

“WHAT DID YOU DO!” I shouted and rushed towards him when one of our men suddenly barged into the office panting. He might have run from downstairs.

“Aviana is here.” He stated. Our men suddenly pulled their guns out. Grandpa did as well but I didn’t. Aviana’s finally here. She’s here to avenge her sister. They started to walk. They were heading downstairs so I followed them too.

Everyone is here. Grandpa, Sophia, Ace, and me. They are here to witness Aviana turning into a demon. Yes, a demon, that’s what we should call her. I don’t even know why she exists. Because if the likes of her exist, I mean if a demon exists in this world then humans will be in danger.

Hence, I was brought back to reality when I saw Sean getting inside the house. He looked towards our direction first then looked at Ace. Ace still doesn’t know what happened to Ava. I still don’t know what happened to her. Where is she? What happened to her?

However, I should give up asking because the answer is already here. Aviana is in rage. Some of our men were already lying down the floor, lifeless. She killed all of them. So this only means one thing. Ava is dead.

“AVIANA!” Sean shouted at her who’s still looking at us. She then turned her face towards him. I can see him froze from where he was standing.

Yes, her eyes weren’t crimson red anymore. They were all dark. However, I noticed him started gasping for air. She’s killing him? Then that means she doesn’t recognize anyone now. Her powers finally swallowed her. Ava would not want this. Ava, I promised you that we will leave this place together right? I will follow you soon so you won’t be lonely.

“That’s enough Avianna. I killed your sister.” I finally said and walked towards her. Sean fell towards the floor while I started to float to the air. I can’t breathe.

“What does he mean?” I heard Ace asked.

“Ava is dead,” Sean said coughing. He froze from what he heard.

“Someone killed her,” He added. Ace looked at me. I just smiled at him. It’s alright if they will think that I killed her. It’s okay. By this, I can follow her very soon. My veins were swelling. I can feel my blood begins to boil. I’m near to my death. I inhaled for one last time.

Ava, wait for me. I’ll finally see you soon.
