Bloodlust

Cecilia followed the guard gently without speaking.

He gave her a sort of look.

One she didn't understand or rather, had never seen before.

"Why are you looking at me that way?"

She asked trying to sound polite.

"Ooh, you mean. So sorry, just that I haven't seen something so beautiful all my life"

The guard said.

"Here, this is a food store room. Get in"

He said as he pointed a small building to her.

"Would you come with me?"

She asked softly.

He nodded positively.

She sighed, then walked inside to see it was a small room but without food.

Infact, it was dusty.

"But you..."

Turning around, she saw him locking the door.

"What are you.."

She asked but got interrupted by him.

"Ooh. Someone's scared. I love things like you. Delicate and beautiful. Don't worry, you'll like it. Don't behave like you're a novice in this stuff"

He said in a hoarse voice that got her shivering.

She took steps backwards, but he kept on moving towards her until she got to a wall.

'Does he want to rape me?'

At that thought, a tear ran down her cheek.

"Please. Let me be"

She started shaking in fear.

"Please, let me be"

He mimicked then laughed maniacally.

"Come on girl, open your milky thighs for me"

He said as he got to her and started rubbing her thighs gently.

She sighed as she let the tears fall down.

'Am doomed. But I swear, I rather die than to let this guard take me'

She cried.

Then all of a sudden, the metal door shattered to reveal an angry Zach.

Zach reeked of blood lust.

"Did he touch you?"

He asked Cecilia as he got to where she stood.

"Zach...Zach"

Then she fell down unconscious.

"You're dead boy"

Zach said as his fang grew out and his nails sharpened.

"Yo..ur... High..high.. highness, I didn't... didn't touch her"

The guard fell to the floor crying.

"But you called her thighs milky. Thought I wouldn't know?"

He asked as he ran his tongue along his fangs.

He moved to where the guard was and without hesitating, gouged out his two eyes.

"That's for bringing her here"

Zach said angrily.

Cecilia let out a soft gasp still unconscious.

His gaze turned to her and it softened immediately.

"You wanted to have my amusement"

He gritted his teeth and landed a punch on the guard. The guard shook in pain as blood oozed off his mouth.

"You wanted to have my sweet bunny"

He gritted his teeth again this time the anger enveloped him whole and he dug his hand into the guard and pulled out his heart.

The guard's face paled and he dropped to the ground dead.

Zach dropped the heart down and pulled his shirt.

He rubbed his hand on the shirt trying to get rid of the blood.

"No, his filthy blood won't touch you"

Zach said then disappeared. He reappeared seconds later with his hands washed as he picked up Cecilia's unconscious body.

"Blaine, take care of the body"

Zach said to Blaine who had been watching the scene from the door then he disappeared to God knows where.

Blaine who had been watching, couldn't help but be amazed.

The last time Zach had felt immense bloodlust was when he lost his mother.

But a girl he barely knew, made him feel bloodlust.

Blaine sighed.

He dreaded the fact that was facing him.

Zach was falling in love with her.

Though it was a hunch, his hunch never failed.

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Zach appeared in her room and dropped her on the bed. The rain started falling heavily, but that didn't bother him.

He ran his fingers through his hair.

His bloodlust wasn't settled.

'I should have burnt him into crisp'

Zach regretted

He watched her sleep peacefully like a baby.

He didn't even know what had come over him then.

He felt immense bloodlust.

The urge to kill.

Because of her.

This was a new feeling for him.

Yes, when his mother died, he felt the need to kill, to revenge.

But this, it was totally different.

'Such a stubborn bunny. Following strangers. I'll scold you once you get up'

He thought as he stared at her.

Blaine appeared at the other end of the room.

"Done?"

Zach asked to see Blaine nod his head.

"Take Nicole to my room. I need blood"

Zach deadpanned as he ran his tongue on his fangs.

Blaine chuckled as he saw his friend turning a new leaf.

'Do women really have the power to melt even the strongest of hearts?'

Blaine thought amazed.

"Will you leave?"

Zach snapped as he saw Blaine stare at Cecilia.

Blaine noticing this, laughed.

"Alright, Alright. I'll be leaving"

Then Blaine disappeared into thin air.

Then Zach walked up to Cecilia and tucked the strands of hair on her face behind her ears.

"When will you wake up, my sweet bunny. Am missing you already"

He muttered as he stared at her peaceful face.

He sighed, there was really nothing he could do but let her sleep.

He leaned in to her face his lips brushing her nose.

Then she sneezed, and he disappeared.

She sneezed again, then like a baby, turned again to keep sleeping.

He appeared back in the room.

She sneezed on his face. He chuckled to himself.

"Seems like I'll have to punish you more bunny"

He chuckled to himself, then giving her one last glance, he left the room.

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Cecilia blinked severally trying to adjust to the light of the room.

She sat on her bed as she felt a headache.

"What happened?"

She softly asked herself trying to recall the previous events.

She remembered following a certain guard to a certain place, and Zach.

He saved her.

Her heart warmed up.

'If he hadn't come in time, that guard would have taken advantage of me'

She sighed at that thought.

'No, I rather slit my neck than to let someone as vile as that guard rape me'

She continued as her palm balled up to fists.

She turned and on her cupboard, food was properly arranged.

'Did he do this for me too?'

She pressed her lips together.

Sometimes he behaved really annoying, but altogether, she really owed him a favor.

'But what can I do for him?
