Number One On The List

Part 12: Goddamn

"The whole time what," she spat out, cutting him off. "The whole time she was fucking both of them. Both brothers. Hell, maybe she even did you too gay bitch," he spat back. Rhaven and I couldn't help but think how funny it is that he could even think that would happen. Daemon came upon a halfway shut door and his curiosity told him to open the damned thing. Inside Wynrie heard the knob on the door behind to shift and open and she feared for who was behind it. She gasped suddenly when she saw that it was Daemon. "Well, I didn't expect both of you to do that. You and Tate really know how to put the fear into someone," she said. He smirked and walked further towards her. "More than you'll ever know. I just wanted to make sure you were safe. Wait.. You mentioned Tate? What was he doing in here with you," he asked. "Same as you, I s'pose. Check on me. It didn't bother me none," Wynrie replied.

Daemon literally had no words. Back in her room, Zeb had made her feel as if she were standing in front of a male Shirley and it was fucking annoying. I kept making her feel as if I were asking her questions about shit just to do something fucking absolutely stupid. Zeb finally gave up and left. "Do you want me to apologize for what I said earlier? Cause I totally will if it means I get to be with you. Just for a bit if that's all I could have," I said.

"Tate.. I... This isn't about me being with you. It's about Wynrie and keeping her safe and right now that's my focus. I would love to see the sensetive side of you sometime though. Get to know the real you," she replied back. I approached her and suddenly pressed my lips to hers and began to kiss her deeply. So passionate.

Ryder wasn't much of her type anyway. He was a little too soft and had the toxic mentality of someone who just had no care. But it didn't mean the sex wasn't great between them. She cried at me and said," How could you act like I was special and then treat me like I'm nothing to you?" "I.. I'm sorry Rhave, but you know I can't get tied down and attached. Not til I feel it's really best for me and who I'm with. You've gotta understand. Please say you know where I'm coming from here?! You can't just randomly let me know you caught feelings after all this time. And after a few fucks that were decent.. The few times we hooked up was Just fucking. I don't see you like that," I answered.

She felt his hands wrap around her from behind and his breath grazed the back of her neck."I heard everything. I'm sorry. I can leave if I'm causing you trouble Rhaven. Just say it," Ryder said. She got out of his grasp and said," It's fine. Not anything to really do with you. He gets jealous and.. weird. I don't understand him sometimes. He acts like he wants a relationship one minute and the next he's single and dating and fucking and doesn't want serious. I just.. I don't know. I thought maybe I was the thing he needed but I guess not. He also has a hate for Werewolves because of what happened to his parents," she answered back. The tears on her cheeks began to fall once again. Ryder walked back into the bedroom and when he came back outside, he saw her standing on the ledge of the balcony which was 4 stories high up. Her arms were stretched outwards and I began to walk backwards and fall off the ledge. He screamed,"No" and somehow he had gotten to the ground before she had reached it and he caught her in his arms. His hands gripped her tightly and he began to tremble slightly. "Don't be stupid. Rhaven, I need your help remember?? You can't go at a time like this," He said, his voice breaking in between words. He set her on her feet and when he went to grab his bandana to wipe her tears he came back, he came back to me eating a fuck ton of fetenyal and driving a needle full of heroin into my vein.

She remembered hearing him scream the same words again and my everything go black. I felt something change in the air. I couldn't make out what it was though. I could just tell there was something different, something not right going on. It was in mere moments that he realized what it was. I finally realized Daemon and Wynrie hadn't shown up to meet him at the house. They had promised me they'd meet up and I hadn't heard a word from either one of them. I began to start worrying and as soon as I began to worry, my phone went off, ringing. I answered it and as soon as I had said,"Hello" the voice on the other end said,"This is your fault you son of a bitch," and hung up. I had no clue of the caller but i also knew I had a chance to find out who it came from and where. I dialed Daemon's number and of course, it went straight to voicemail. I dialed Wynrie's number as well, only to find the same thing with her too. I left messages for the both of them and began to pace around my bedroom. I sat down and began to trace the call I'd received from the mysterious person. The call had been traced to her house and he knew it was a masculine voice so it must've been her guest. The Werewolf.

I called the number back and when Ryder picked up the phone I said," I may not know you but I can tell you now I definitely don't like you. We aren't going to get along so just tell me why you called me, Werewolf." A growl came from Ryder. A deep growl. "Look, asshole.. You don't need to worry about it cause you caused it to happen. Do me a favor and don't call this number back. Don't call me again, Hybrid boy," Ryder shot back. Ryder had hung up on me again and I was becoming angry. Wynrie and Daemon had finally shown up and I rushed towards them almost immediately.

"Hey! What's up with you," Daemon asked. "So some fuck head werewolf called me spouting some bullshit about whoever knows what and when I called back he basically told me to fuck off," I replied back, the words flying out in a rush. "Woah, hold on Tate. You mean to say some werewolf called you and warned you about something," Wynrie asked, scared. "No. Maybe. I don't fuckin know! I'm not sure but I felt the way he was talking, the way his words were. I could tell he must've been in some sort of distress. Or something," I said. "Bro, this is ridiculous as absolute fuck," Daemon shouted at me. "Nobody asked you ass fuck. You can stop butting in," I shot back. Daemon was becoming enraged at his brother's words. Wynrie said," Calm down you two. There's no need for this to get out of hand and turn into some kind of fight or some shit." They knew deep down that she was right. "Just shut the fuck up and give me your phone and I'll handle this matter myself," Daemon said to me.

I handed Daemon my phone and Daemon called back the number. Ryder answered the phone to hear" Listen here you motherfucker, leave my brother alone. I don't know what he did to you or whoever but you need to let the shit die. Got it?! Good. Now never call this number back or I'll kill you myself," Daemon said, aggressively. "You don't understand what he caused to happen, Vampire. You will never understand how bad he fucked up. It's Rhaven," Ryder replied back. Daemon immediately panicked and stuttered," Wha-what happened? Is she okay?!" I said," Who?! Daemon, what the fuck is going on?" "Shut the fuck up, dumbfucker," Daemon shot back. I shut up immediately and Daemon went back to the conversation on the phone.

"It's his fault. Fuck you and your brother. You take and hurt those who haven't hurt you EVER! How can you do that with no fuckin care whatsoever," Ryder asked. Daemon couldn't find the will to cry out any words. He heard the voice say these final words before the phone was hung up," It's his fault because he's a fuckin monster. Just a fuckin criminal, an ex con," and then the phone hung up. Daemon stood with the phone to his ear for a few moments after the phone call ended. I walked up behind Daemon and asked,"Well? What was that about there?? Seemed pretty intense for a simple conversation." Daemon turned around and he instantly punched me in the face.

He began to beat me up, very violently and Wynrie began screaming," Daemon, stop! Please! You need to stop Dae. Your going to kill him." He didn't stop. She began to cry and as soon as she was about the have a tear fall, he somehow managed to stop and get to her to brush away the tear. He fell to his knees on the carpeted floor and seemed like he was a trance-like-state and she rushed her hand to her mouth. Her beautiful black painted nails we're catching his eye and he quickly came back to consciousness. Her eyes had begun to shed tears and Daemon's eyes began turning a very bright Turquoise. When that happened he was usually upset with himself or nearly completely hated himself.

She remembered Ryder coming back to her room after he had taken care of his business. His knock was always the slightest and most gentle she'd ever heard. Very peaceful. He came inside and sat next to her bed and began to comfort her. She could feel him besides her stroking her hair but she was too fucked up to actually be aware of much else. She just knew his warm hands were now caressing her cheek and jaw.
