Ten

It did not take time for him to get there. He told the driver to leave as soon as he jumped out of the car. He ran into the hospital asked the nurse on duty about the room in which Crystal Garcia was staying. Being showed the room, he dashed towards it. His face portrayed worry.

Is she fine?

Is she doing okay?

He did not find anyone in front of her room and he did not even care. All he wanted to see was Crystal...to make sure she was fine and okay. He hope she is fine...he did not even want to dare to think if something bad had happened to her.

No....he had to stop thinking negative thoughts. She is fine....he knew she is fine.

She had to be fine.

He walked in her room and his heart melted when he caught sight of her. She seemed so weak...so vulnerable....so petite.

But yet....so beautiful.

Looking down at her, he could not help but admire the beauty before him. He could not help it....he wanted to touch her so bad..

One touch won't hurt right?

He slowly reached out for her cheek and gently cuppled it with his hands. He felt at peace surprisingly and his monster seemed to have been tamed. So soft.....he could not help but be gentle.

His left hand went to her hair and softly stroked. He held her right hand and he bent down softly so he could see her face clearly. He sighed and kissed her forehead. He did not know what he was doing but it felt natural.

He touched her cheek again and for the first time in a long while, he smiled. He could not believe the fact that he was touching her right now.

What is he doing?

He supposed to be pushing her away.

He closed his eyes as he stood up and walked farther away from her. He had to end this madness somehow....there must be a way. He could not just continue to be under this girl's spell.

At least she seemed fine.

But he could not help it....his eyes roamed her body and landed on the bandage right on her left hand. He walked around and softly held the hand, as if he did not hold it like that, it would hurt her and that was the last thing he had on his mind.

Damn what was happening to him?

He heaved a sigh as he made his way out of the room, wanting to leave this place before he does something more insane. But he stopped just right at the door when he heard a conversation.

"The Doctor is still looking for her blood type but it has still not be found. We have to find her blood group before her situation gets worse"

He looked at her, his eyes becoming wider as he took in on the information. Of course she had lost a lot of blood, but why had they not found her blood group yet?

"Her blood type is just not any type of blood ma'am, hers is AB Negative. It is the rarest blood type but please come with me so i could check yours"

AB Negative?

He walked back to the bed and looked at her, his mind filling in with raging thoughts. Standing back in frustration, he ruffled his hair, knowing what he would do at that moment.

There is no way he was going to leave her in this state. He had to give out his blood quickly. Nothing mattered but her being safe and fine.

"You will be fine okay? Do not worry i will make sure you will be" He softly said, removing her hair from her face. He heaved a deep sigh as he looked back at the door. He knew the Doctor will come in at any minute so he had to be quick.

He looked around and found a table knife. He walked around her bed and picked up the knife. Walking back to her side, he slit his wrist and gently opened her mouth so it could enter her mouth.

"You will be fine okay?" He said as he gently stroke her hair.

When a Doctor came in, he told him that he was just a friend who came to see her.

How will he get away from her when he was showing her he is always there....

That he cared.

It was better he just left. He walked back to her bed and smiled. Now she will be fine. As he was about to leave, he discovered she had moved.

He freezed, not wanting to look back. What of if she sees him? What will he do then?

He turned back and he met her eyes. Damn! Now she saw him. His eyes widened as she slowly raised her hand, trying to reach for him. There was this smile of contentment on her face....one he did not understand.

He did not know how, but he felt himself lower, wanting to feel her touch. He closed his eyes as her hands touched his cheek.

No! What was he doing? He should not be giving in to her, he had to be away from her. He quickly walked back, his eyes still held on to hers.

But instead she smiled wider, making him confused. Why was she smiling? His raging thoughts could not find the answer as he saw her close her eyes. He did not stay back a minute more....he had to get away from her....from her intense force....

From her pull.

He was glad that he did not see anyone when he came out of the room. The last thing he wanted to give was an explanation.

Without thinking, he left the hospital and took the direction of the woods; the easiest short cut to his house.

At least she was fine....she would be fine.

It took him quite a long time to get home and when he did, his parents were in the sitting room, walking around depicting a restless atmosphere. He forgot he would have to face them when he got home.

What was he going to tell them now?

"Justin" His mother stood up when she had caught sight of him. She held her heart as she ran to her son.

"Justin? Where have you been? What happened? Why are you so weak?" His mother asked, checking his temperature.

"You are running a fever"

"Justin where have you been? We have been worried. How could you leave without telling anyone?" His father, Mr. Damon asked as he approached him, looking quite relieved after he had seen his son.

"I...i do not feel so good"

"Come son, let us get you to your room. You seem so pale.Come...come let me help you" Mrs Maxwell said as she helped her son up.

Looking up at his wife and son as they slowly made their way upstairs, he smiled, a wicked grin on his face. Finally! he had found something quite interesting and his son had led him right to this interesting thing....a person.

"I knew you kept her alive Peter and i will waste no time in taking advantage of this fact. You made a mistake. Now see how i will strip her of everything and make you pay. You hid her from me before i killed you just for the goal of gaining your property. But now, this is even better. You made a mistake by putting your daughter's name on your will instead of mine.

"I told you that you will regret this but you didn't listen. And now i will make sure she joins you in whatever Paradise you are in and finally get your wealth. It is just a matter of time Peter"

He smiled, a smile so vengeful and dangerous. Now he knew where that bitch was.

Justin and his mother got to his room and she helped him on the bed, pulling his shoes.

"Where have you been? What happened to you?"

"Mum....could you please leave?"

"But you are....."

"Mum please i am fine, please leave" He said as he turned on the bed, hugging himself as he felt pain all over.

"Fine, i will check on you in the morning" She said and walked out of the room, closing the door behind her. Jason stood up, his eyes turning from blue to deep red. He groaned as his nails started to elongate.

He stumbled to his window and without even thinking jumped down from the three story building, his long nails hitting the ground as he landed.

He ran into the woods and that night, the roar of a beast was heard in the woods on a full moon.
