pure vampire - Chapter 51 The Second Mate

.

He was sure of two things. One, he would find that girl and bring her back. And two, his actions today may have gotten him back into the palace, but after he completes his task The king will kill Marcos…

Ana Pov

I stood there with a fake smile on my face and my hand out stretched. The whole parking lot had gone deafly quiet. Not even a cricket dared to chirp after my announcement. I looked around at all the shocked silent faces of my former classmates waiting for someone to react.

Hmm maybe they didn’t hear me.

When I glanced back at Kim the rage in her expression was enough to confirm I was heard.

“You lying bitch” Kim sneered “You may be a lot of things but my fat ass sister isn’t one of them” she ended looking satisfied with herself. Oh what fun I’m going to have shattering her world now.

“Oh you think I’m not Ana because I looked better than you right?” I asked sarcastically

“You!” She said pointing a finger at me “Are not hotter than me”

“Honestly Kim I could care less. But I am Ana would you like me to prove it?” I asked gaging her reaction. Her expression changed almost like she was worried. Perfect!

“Hmm let’s see, you wet the bed till you were ten” I began counting off my fingers “You keep your diary under a loose floor board. When I was five you broke dads golfing trophy and blamed me. You steal money from mom’s wallet every Tuesday. Shall I go on?” I asked looking at Kim’s beet red face. Her anger sky rocketed and she was shaking with rage. I must be hitting the spot. Which means I should keep going right? Right.

“Ok I’ll go on. You cheated on Jace with-” I didn’t get to finish that sentence because Kim began screaming at the top of her lungs like a mad woman.

“ANA YOU BITCH!” She shrieked seconds before charging. At least she believes me now.

I stood waiting for the blow. Kim didn’t disappoint. She hurled her body into mine and we both crashed to the ground. We rolled around on the hard pavement a few times before coming to a stop with crazy Kim on top of me yelling and slapping me like a lunatic.

“I’LL KILL YOU!” She shouted grabbing a fist full of my hair and slamming my head on the ground. Ouch!

I swing my right fist out and punched her in the face. She fell off of me with an oomph! We both lay on our backs panting for a minute before she jumped up and attacked me again. Once more we tumbled over each yelling and cursing

“I hate you!” She hollered

“I hate you too. You slut!” I shouted back.

When our rolling stopped I was straddling her. I took my hand and slapped the shit out of her. She gasped completely stunned she was bitch slapped for a second and then began swinging her fist out at me. I dodged each blow easily. I lifted my hand to slap her again when I was forcible ripped away.

“Control yourself!” Seb whispered angrily in my ear while pulling me away. Two jocks had also intervened and were holding back Kim.

“I went easier on her Seb. You and I both know that” I whispered to him while watching my sister try to claw her way back to me.

Her left eye was starting to darkened already from the punch. Yeah I went very easy on her. I could have easily broken all her limbs but instead I just slapped her around a bit. The maniac deserved more.

“You should have stayed gone Ana! No one wants you here!” Kim threw the insults at me still attempting to break the jocks hold on her.

I would be lying if I said her words didn’t hurt. I looked around at my former classmates. Most of their faces were staring at me with a mixture shock, awe and just below the surface disgust. Even though I had a new body, some of them still saw me as old fat loser Ana.

And it stung. I thought coming back here I would show them all how much better I am now. But am I? Has turning into a beautiful vampire essentially changed the loser inside? Or will I forever carry a piece of that insecurity with me.

“You’re better than this Ana. Focus on the girl you became over the last two years” Seb said softly to me.

I will never understand how he reads me so well. I wonder if he’s one of my mates. What am I thinking? Of course he is! It’s Seb. He always had a connection to me that I couldn’t explain, until now. He is right about one thing. I am different. And I won’t hang my head and let these high school idiots intimidate me anymore!

I stood taller and hardened my gaze on all my tormentors. When they landed on Kim I almost smiled. Why? Because beneath that entire tough exterior I could finally see it was her that was threatened by me! Imagine that.

“Hey Kim!” I yelled “How does it feel?” She gave me a confused face and I just chuckled “Let me clarify. How does it feel to see me now? You tried your best to keep me down because you were always afraid this would happen. That one day I would be better than you. But what you failed to realize was I was always better than you and now I have the looks to top it off. Oh and this too” I ended yanking Jace to me and smashing my lips to his lips. His body stiffened but I pressed my hand to the back of his head to keep him from moving. I had a point to prove.

Jace’s lips felt like silk against mine and I tried not to get lost in this kiss and remember my anger towards him too. But it was hard.

I broke the kiss abruptly and freed Jace. Kim was screaming and doubling her efforts to get to me. Two points Ana!

I could see the evil glint in her eyes as she struggled but I don’t care. She started this war over a boy. And I will show her I won’t be easily taken down.

I sent her one last smile before I turned to walk away. The lousy hotel bed was calling me. Along with a shower. My thoughts are interrupted by Bobby coming to a halt in front of me.

“Piggy? Is that really you?” He asked with a confused smile. Oh how I used to hate that name. I had to fight to keep myself from hissing at him and driving my fangs into his throat.

“Bobby if you ever call me piggy again I will rip your di-”

“Ok enough. Bobby why don’t you run along now” Jace said stepping in between us. Bobby looked Jace up and down for a moment before chuckling to himself.

“Always did have a soft spot for her huh Thompson?” Bobby asked mockingly. I couldn’t see Jace’s face but the tension in his body was enough to know he was pissed.

“Back off Bobby or there will be another fight tonight” Jace’s voice was deep and dangerous. Even I wouldn’t push him right now. Bobby held is hands up in surrender and jogged off.

Well at least that’s over. I thought. That was until I tried to walk away and Jace’s strong hand on my wrist stopped me

“Jace-”

“No Ana listen. Don’t you ever do that me again! I know you have your issues with your sister but never use me as a play toy to seek revenge on her. That’s unfair to me because I have real feelings for you. Not to mention it’s beneath you to act so childishly” Jace ended letting go of my wrist. He looked sad and angry at the same time. My insides ache to see it. But it was low of me to use him like that. That was totally wrong and so unlike me. Kim just really pissed me off and I just felt like I had to hit her where it hurt.

“I’m sorry” I said trying to apologize but he only turned from me and walked back towards the motel room. Ugh I really messed that up.

“When I said your better than this I expected you to show it” Seb commented as he passed by me

“Seb!” I called out after him. He also ignored me and continued walking. That’s great! I managed to piss of both of my mates at the same time. I’m doing such a great job with this. At this rate they will reject me before I even have a chance to choose one of them. Wonder if I already blew it with the mysterious third mate.

I don’t even want to think about that right now. I just hope for my sake I haven’t met him yet. I Stand there for a moment with my head to the sky listening to the sounds of retreating cars.

“THIS ISNT OVER ANA!” Kim shouts from somewhere behind me. I don’t even dignify her with a response and instead just stick my middle fingers up.

My emotions can’t take any more pressure tonight. I need to feed before I hype out and rip everyone’s throat open. I’m so drained that I can’t even feel my powers. I must be too exhausted to tap into them. The sound of more doors closing and tires screeching relaxes me slightly. At least they are leaving now

“Hey! That was insane” Simon said bumping shoulders with me. The smile on my face at seeing him can’t be helped. His goofy grin, curly hair and witty comments always cheer me up.

“Yeah you can say that” I said gazing back up to the night sky. Simon laughed and headed back to the room. Marie offered a small smile before she too went inside. I was finally alone, or so I thought

“That was AWESOME! You have such an exciting life” Lily said as she bounced gleeful in front of me. Ugh when will I ever have a minute to just wind down?

“That girl was a bitch! I can’t believe she is your sister?! Wow if I had her for a siser I would hold her head in a toliet after I took a dump in it. I am officially happy I followed you here” Lily said and I got the feeling she wasn’t picking up on my body language.

“Lily can you head inside with the others I need a minute” I tried to sound as nice as I could but I was really edgy. Luckily she just nodded eagerly and pranced off. Gosh, what am I going to do with that girl?

My legs decided to give out and I dropped to the ground on my knees. I knew my hunger was starting to catch up with me and fast. With everything happening at Helia’s and then here there was no time to feed. I have so many things going on, that keeping myself fed seems like an impossible task.

Out of nowhere my fangs shot out of my gums. I could feel my pupils expand until nothing but darkness covered my eyes.

There is still a bag of blood in my duffel but I can’t go into my motel and get it like this. I closed my eyes and concentrated hard on pushing my fangs back but they wouldn’t budge.

The forest isn’t too far from here I could hunt a deer or something. The only problem is animal blood makes me sick. I shudder at the thought when I tried to drink it two years ago. I threw up blood so dark it looked black for three days.
