6 : Birthday surprise

I stood outside against the stone wall as the wind blew over my body. I had gotten the knife the man had placing it on the lace on my thigh.

Don't look down. Don't look down. Don't look down.

Words can't explain how scared I am of heights, I slowly moved across the small cliff keeping my body pressed against the stone wall of the house.

I shortly came to the balcony feeling so relief of it finally ending, I peck through the window seen the stairs and right there was the elevator at the beginning of the south wing.

I looked around and no one was to be seen. I grabbed the handle ready to open the balcony door, but it didn't open I kept pulling and pulling but it was locked.

I look to my left seen the last balcony far away, making my way I start walking on the small cliff not looking down.

I hate heights.

Halfway through I was to deep in my thoughts I didn't realize that in the balcony below me there was some people talking.

Ezra.

Laughter emerged from the people below me, I didn't want to look but my curiosity got the best of me.

"Middle card" the husky voice send chills down my body. The man had a cigarette in between his lips and females on his side.

One of them took the cigarette from his lips as he released rings of smoke, the female to his right raised a wine glass to his lips being careful to not spill nothing.

Ezra sat next to him smoking too but unlike the other he didn't have females on him and as some tried approaching him he gave them all a death glare scaring them away.

They sat around a table the man who was smoking was playing, the man across from him looked nervous as he placed the middle card down.

They revealed their last 2 cards "I win, your to easy to read"

"My brother stays the same gambling like always, being the master of the game" Ezra said laughing.

"Shall we go see your birthday present soon" fuck, I started moving fasted, watching each step making it to the end. I jumped over to the balcony opening the door walking in a room, it was dark and the only light there was was from the moon itself.

The bedroom was the definition of darkness itself.

'He's the devil himself'

The dark grey marvel floor was dark, in the middle of the room was a king size bed with black covers, the walls where black and there was a second floor that was the walk in closet. 

There was no door or wall for the bathroom the whole bathroom itself was exposed.

I slowly walked making my way to the door, I peeked not seen no one in sight I made my way towards the end of the hallway pressing the button to the elevator.

It felt forever waiting for the elevator, it was on level 1, looks like people where coming from the underground garage to the party.

Finally it started making its way up when I heard someone coming upstairs. Fuck fuck hurry up.

I kept pressing the button but saw black hair I slowly ran back down the dark hallway to the room I came from.

I could hear my heart beating fast.

I pressed my ear against the door to try and hear something, the steps I heard sounded as if they where coming my way.

I slowly stepped back from the door making my way to the spiral black staircase that led to the second floor where the closet was at. 

My heart dropped at the sound of the elevator noise and the doors opening. The footsteps started approaching more. I got to the second floor and crawled my way towards the end of the closet.

The doors opened and the man walked in looking around. I covered my mouth with both hands waiting for him to leave.

But he went ahead and laid down on the bed, I tilted my head over little by little to see what he was doing.

He had his hands over his face slowly breathing out.

I didn't move for the next 10 minutes everything was quiet, not a single sound.

I peeked at him again, he looked as if he had fallen asleep. I breathed out, okay I can make an escape.

I started to slowly crawl back to the staircase having my eyes fixed on him in case he moved.

I slowly got up making my way down the stairs, being 2 steps away from the floor I looked over at him and still no movement.

My bare feet touched the cold marvel floor, slowly walking getting closer to the bed he laid on and getting a better visual of his face.

The moonlights light reflected beautiful off his face, his light tone skin looked so alive with color compared to my ivory skin, his gentle pink color lips looked so soft.

But it was all a distraction I moved up to see his eyes close but instead he had his hand over them, I sucked in a long breath. I didn't realize when he woke up or was he awake all along waiting for me.

A smirk appeared on his lips, he sat up moving the hairs that had fallen in his face back and looked at me.

I couldn't move, my feet wouldn't move, I stood there in shook feeling my own heart beat racing every second that past by.

I felt a strong vibe from him coming off as he looked at me I couldn't look back I couldn't move my eyes from my feet who wouldn't move as I wanted them.

I was so mad at myself how could I be so stupid of course he knew, did he see me when I was on the cliff?

I knew that the moment I moved he would also attack just like a wild cat waiting for its prey, unlike most who wait for their prey to not notice them this one liked the chase the adrenaline it came with, that was the vibe I was getting from him.

Don't think. just move. Go upstairs. Move damn.

I didn't think twice I didn't think at all, I ran back to the stairs grabbing onto the railing making my way up hearing him run from behind me.

I know he's going to catch up but I just need to get up and jump onto the bed.

Everything felt like it was going in slow motion, I ran pass the closet placing a hand on the railing pushing myself up and jumping.

I was falling but I stopped mid air, looking up I see him. he got to me, he had his hand around my wrist.

My eyes widen, his black hair was slicked backed yet some pieces rested on his forehead. His eyes glimmering from the moonlights light, captivating me with them, Emerald green eyes so beautiful and dark.

He smirked at me.

He's full of himself, I moved my hand trying to get his grip to loosen but didn't work.

Before I realized it he had let himself go falling onto the bed with me.

He pinned my hands over my head looking down at me as I struggled against him.

"You can try all you want you won't escape" he lowly said.

I couldn't even look at him I turned my face to the side and stopped struggling.

"Good girl" he praised.

He went ahead and let go of my hand taking his tie off loosing up some buttons reveling part of his chest.

What the hell is he thinking. This is my chance.

I moved my legs wrapping them around his waist turning him faced down.

I was on top now with a knife against his throat.

He laughed and looked at me making eye contact, I tried to not look at him but he didn't make it easy.

"Those emerald blue eyes" he said. My eyes widen did i lose my contacts? Fuck. Little had she herself notice some strands of her golden hair where showing.

His hand moved fast taking the black wig off revealing my golden hair, he laughed "you really are a surprise" he smirked.

Azriel was amazed by her boldness and beauty. For him she was a catch.

"I will kill you" I managed to get the words out but I knew he could hear how scared I was and I'm pretty sure he felt my hand trembling but he just smirked at me.

"Your not capable of that sweetheart" he said.

Everything happened so fast he ended on top of me with the knife I had against my throat.

"You seem somewhat familiar. Have I threatened you before?" He flatly said.

This guy.

The doors opened and the lights turned on "I see your already playing with your gift" Ezra said.

He tossed the knife over to Ezra "get rid of that"

He stood up dragging me off pulling my hands from behind me and tying them up with the tie he had taken off.
