Chapter 4: Settling down
*Ciara's P.O.V*
My eyes peeled open and the first person I saw was Damian…I was confused at first but then gradually everything began to settle back into my mind and then I tried to make out what might have happened as I sat up and looked around…Damian seemed lost in his thoughts…
"W…what happened?"…he was still lost in his thoughts or maybe he didn't really care that I was awake as usual he never cared for me…or for anything…I began to tear up and decided to confront him…
"Why are you so evil!!...You don't fucking seem to care about anything!!.." he just kept quiet and continued to stare at something as he sat down at the edge of the bed…I traced his gaze to what he was looking at and I figured out that it was mom's dead body and then I came to wonder… 'I was trying to protect mom from those mysterious people but…I felt like I died…and if I died…meaning that.....mom's dead….then if so.....how am I ali---'
"They…..must pay for what they've done…"…he threw me out of my head as he muttered under his breath while a drop of tears slid down his cheeks…
"Damian…" I called out his name softly as I felt bad that I might have misjudged him just this once so I stood up and then I walked up to his front and reluctantly I hugged him and he hugged me back immediately and he cried out profusely and even squeezed me tight…
"I'll never lose you…" he said weakly in between his tantrum and I began to apt his back and rub his head to calm him down…and eventually he did and I sat down beside him…
"C'mon tell me what's wrong?" I cooed out to him softly and his eyes became wet again
"I…I…I thought I had lost you…" he began to sob again but silently…and then he continued in between his sob…
"If only I was there…I would have saved you…I would have---"
"It's not your fault Damian…you're lucky you weren't there you'd have probably di---"
"I'm different Ciara! We're different now!!" he cut in abruptly and I was confused at what he just said…
"What do you mean….we are different?" I asked doubtfully as I squinted my eyes in disbelief and he heaved a deep sigh…
"Well the thing is…last week......."
* * * * * * *
I was chuckling at the story he was telling me right now because it seemed so good to be true…
"So…we're vampires now?"…he looked away and had this look of regret and hate on his face…
"I'd hate to admit it…but ye---"
"So we get to suck blood and do other super human shit!!" I was so excited but it was uncalled for but still my life had just transformed in a flash so I had every reason to be happy and if he's correct our lives would be like those ones in the fairytales I've been reading
"It's not a joke Ciara…neither is it something that calls for celebration…we're monsters now Ciara…" he blurted out and then I decided to calm down a bit but inside I was still squealing like a baby then an awkward silence broke out between us and it reigned till I spoke up…
"Well what do we do next?"…
"It's quite simple.....Revenge!" he muttered the word 'revenge' under his breath and I understood his predicament because he was even way more closer to mom than everyone else in the house and then an idea came into my mind…
"But wait in the books I read you can turn people into vampires by bloo---"
"That was what I did for you…"he cut in sharply as if he knew where I was heading to…
"Bu…but what about mom?"…he heaved a heavy sigh of regret and just then I remembered something also from the books
"Well I just remembered something from the books I read…they say that you can only turn those with that are still alive or those who still have an atom of life force in them…" he sighed and his eyes became watery again and then I hugged him and rubbed his shoulders trying to calm him down…I was amazed on everything that just happened…normally I'm the cry baby and probably the whole city is meant to be hearing my tears by now but I'm actually the matured one here and it was quite amusing...suddenly an idea came to my head…I began to remember all the abilities of vamps that I've read in those e-books and seems like their information has been hundred percent legit so far…
"Where are you going to?" he asked as I stood up and then I smiled at him at went out of the room to one of the bodies in front of the room and then as I went on my knees and leaned forward I began to feel this uncertain hunger for blood as the scent of blood that oozed from the bodies entered my nose and without wasting time I leaned forward and even inhaled more so that my lust would increase because I was so eager to savor that feeling of drinking blood…I then sank my fangs in when I was ready and then I could taste it...I was drinking blood and it wasn't like the blood off from my boo-boo's back at elementary school it was way different and the blood didn't have that salty…ish taste and the taste of the blood depended on my imagination…if I imagined it to be spicy it would heed to my imaginations and so on and so forth it felt so good and I never wanted it to stop…I wanted more so dug my fangs deeper and deeper until I tore out a huge chunk of flesh from the body's nape and then its blood sprinkled everywhere from the ruptured capillaries like it was some kind of fountain and I let out my tongue to receive all of it….
"Ciara what are you doing?"…Damian exclaimed and I jolted away from the body and pouted my face so that I would look as innocent as possible because he was obviously mad at me for drinking blood for reasons best known to him…
"Well...I'm just trying to…embrace the new me…" he heaved a sigh of disappointment and then he rubbed his forehead for a while before speaking up…
"Well…let's get going…we need to start plotting our revenge plan…and better have a bath before we leave…I don't really want us to draw any attention…" he spat out with a tone a disgust in his voice…
*Damian's P.O.V*
I didn't know how we were going to do it but we must take down that gang…the hood is the most feared gang in the city…rumors claim that it's an international gang…and it's powerful enough to battle against the military…but all these never reduced my zeal to make each and every one of them suffer for what they did to me…but I had nowhere to start from…I had no weapons…talk less of money…all I had was the house we were living in and the house rent is about to expire and the greedy and impatient landlord would chase us out in seconds…I was really stranded and I had to think of a solution real quick…we had reached the house and then I freshened up…and then I sat down to continue thinking and then Ciara pulled up from her cocoon to disturb me like she always used to but this time I wasn't going to walk out on her like I was always do because I never know when she's going to stop…so I'd endure it till then besides she's the only person I have left now…
"Soooooouuuuu…..what'ya doing?" she hugged me from behind as she blurted out playfully…and I shrugged…
"I'm just tryna make things better for us…" she scoffed…
"Try having some fun…c'mon let's go out trust me it'd be fun…"…I decided to let this one slide so I got all dressed up but casually…I wore a sleeveless t-shirt and some nice shorts with deep pockets due to my love for deep pockets…and then I wore sneakers…while she wore a stylish crop top and fitting short jorts with sneakers…and then we made for the road…
"So where are we going to have this…'fun'…" I asked and she smiled…
"Let's just stroll" she blurted out and to be honest it actually did calm my nerves…she clung unto my arm and not to like we were like a notice-board almost everyone on the streets gawked at us young or old and Ciara seemed to like it but I didn't…
* * * * * * *
We had spent the whole day outside having fun, we went bowling and we even went to arcade and now I was tired… I wanted to rest but she wasn't tired…she dragged my arm and pointed at another arcade…and I heaved a sigh of frustration before we went in but sadly there was no money to pay…we've squandered it all…and then it occurred to me…we need to make money and real quick…but how…
"You guys look alike…I'mma sell this condoms to you with a discount---"
"I'll give you buy one take one fre---"
"Take two free!!"… We had now approached the red light district of town and things were as it is…the stall owners by the road side advertising their goods and some of them their prostitutes…although this was where the cheap brothels and stores were and at the chic part they didn't even have stalls by the road side they had buildings that had everything in it…and then an idea came to my mind and I stopped at the sign-board of one of the buildings…it's called 'The Nux'…the letters glowed brightly on the neon sign-board and I looked at her and she looked at me and I looked back at her and smirked…
"I thought you said that we're going home?" she asked as she was slightly annoyed and uncomfortable and I chuckled…
"Well you've had your fun…let me have mine…if you don't want to then you can find---"
"D…don't worry I'm coming with you" she cut in sharply and she avoided my gaze…well I wasn't actually going there to have fun…besides I don't have the money to pay for any prostitutes…even their cheapest ones but if my I play my cards right I'd walk outta here with money…
The receptionist smiled as we walked through the revolving glass doors…and then she stood up…she was beautiful and was dressed up corporately she had thick black lustre hair that cascaded down her perky butt that was enclosed perfectly in a fitting skirt and for some reason her glasses amplified the beauty of her smile…
"Sir…would you like a room for you two? Or are you two togeth---"
"I'd like to meet with the manager…" she rose up an eyebrow in an amusing manner and she even chuckled lightly…
"Well…n…no one has ever asked that kind of question…unless we don't meet up to expectations…but sir you haven't even tasted the any of Nux and---"
"I need to meet up with the manager…"I added a little bit of emphasis to my statement and she finally gave in…
"Oh well then…follow me…"
We were at a hallway that had doors that were at each side of the hallway and at the end was a door that was red and the others were light brown in color…and then she directed me to it with her hands and smiled and then I and Ciara walked through the door…the floor was carpeted in red and then the room was divided into two and was separated by a glass wall and there were wires running along the floor and it was almost impossible to walk without stepping on them…at the other end of the first half of the room was a media crew, sound system and everything…and the other half that didn't have a carpet and cables on the floor that also seemed like a room was filled with camera and lighting equipment…it was a studio…and people were inside and there were naked people on the bed…a man and three women and then some people were behind the camera and then a woman that was dressed in a black evening dress yelled out…
"And…..action!!" and then the people on the bed began to eat the man up and then she yelled out again…
"Cut!!!" and then she heaved a sigh of frustration…before she began to yap
"Arthur form it like you mean it…what happened when Elisa's sucking your dick…and also Elisa make it sloppy and the others…you're doing a good job…just roll the clip one more time…" the whole crew sighed in a tired manner and in unison…well except the girl who was controlling the sound system…she was masturbating…
"Is everyone ready?" the woman looked around to ensure that and then she smacked her forehead when she saw the girl at the sound system
"Emily focus!!" she sucked her fingers lewdly and chuckled…
"Sorry boss but this actor's too hot…"she moaned out while pointing at us that had been spectating the whole scene
"Actor?" and then she saw me…and she rose up and eyebrow........
"I don't really have the time to care who directed you here but if you can get the job done…then you'll save you and your bitch's ass from being arrested for trespassing…" she wasn't in the mood when we met her and she wanted to charge us for trespassing but then I had an idea…I could finally put my abnormal cum shit to use…I looked back at Ciara who was very uncomfortable and I felt kinda guilty but I walked ahead unto the stage and the lights almost blinded me…then I climbed the bed…the women began to murmur at the sight of my boner and I kinda felt on top of the world….even the manager to seemed…amazed more like attracted…she finally brought herself to coordinate…
"A…Action!!"… The three women rushed to my side wanting to have a taste of little Damian and I smirked darkly as I knew what was about to unfold...…
