Devoted ║ Liam Dunbar

║Chapter 9║

Throughout the full hospital the power suddenly switched off which creeped me out. ''Chris!'' I exclaimed seeing the tall man turn around to face the two of us, ''the powers out in the full building.'' Was the first thing he said. ''We figured.'' Stiles responded chuckling a little, the two started talking but something like heavy footsteps from above me and growling made my heart skip a beat. There was also mumbled talking, Liam and Kira's, feeling my mouth twitch as I had the desire to set off running.

''There's something up there- I-i gotta go.'' I stammered, hot on my heel to rush up to the top of the building, ignoring Stiles calls as I sped off towards the stairway, where several patients were taking too long to get up and down. I ended up jumping over the bars at one point and running under their arms, apologising as I sprinted past them, seeing the roof door already open.

Pressing my back against the cold metal of the door I could see a sparking and surging transformer which looked like somebody had attacked it. I then crept over to the roof, the wind pushing my hair in front of my face meaning I could barley make out what looked like a Berserker stood in front of a passed out Kira, Liam nowhere to be seen.

It's posture then turned towards me, marching forward as I froze trying to think before flicking out my claws and letting out an almighty growl towards the monster who didn't seem phased. I knew that it was much stronger than me but anger took over me knowing that it had attacked my friends.

I felt completely out of control, range ran through me until a loud voice stopped me. ''Jenna!!'' My attention turned to Liam who was helping Kira back to her feet again.

My claws suddenly retracted back in, and I didn't feel the sharpness of my fangs pressing against my lips anymore. I was distracted by Liam and Kira until I felt a sharp pain press into my side, slamming my body into the air until I smacked harshly against a cage where there was some kind of sparking transformer inside.

My hand immediatly came down to my side, pressing down and lifting to realise there was no blood. Thank god. I let out a gasp out of shock as I slowly pressed myself up, a human hand making me jump until I realised it was just Liam. ''Are you okay?'' His hand rested on my shoulder, the other one taking my hand, pulling me up off the floor as I had no time to respond, a startled cry escaping my lips, watching the berserker raising it's arm to us until I slammed my foot into it's stomach; stalling the disgusting creature. Liam suddenly growled towards the monster as I attempted to snatch his T-shirt back but he attacked the beast wildy, ''Liam- stop!!'' I cried out, watching the two fight harshly. Even Scott and Malia found it hard to fight these.

Peter Hale even ran away from one of them- if that doesn't say a lot then I don't know what does.

A creepy growl which sounded almost fake, escaped the Berserkers mouth as one of it's harmful arms lifted up to pierce Liam's back but I let out a deadly snarl, leaping forward and digging my claws deep beneath it's weird skeleton armour. Liam also snapped and scratched at the creature, but all of a sudden we were both slammed away, my head smacking against the wall leaving my vision, even enhanced, still slightly blurred.

Liam, however, didn't give up. He attacked the Berserker from above, jumping down from a transformer, his skin bruised up and bleeding. He was thrown away away again, and this time I leaped forward, still a little dizzy as I felt blood trickle down my head. My arm wrapped in front of Liam's body as he growled out loud to the monster which was not giving up, but finding it hard to now walk with a messed up leg and attack, with a visible hole in it's arm from where I basically dug and ripped through his skin, muscles and bones, blinded with rage.

''Stop it! Leave it- Kira, run!!'' I yelled out as she seemed a little hesitant at first, ''go to Scott!!'' I knew there would be limited time now, the words seemed to get her to run faster than ever as in my human form I used all the strength I could to pull away an agitated Liam. ''Liam- we need to go!'' My eyes hit the metal door, then the Berserker which was getting ready to attack again.

''Liam!!'' I then barked out causing him to stop pushing and eventually turn to me, his eyes still yellow before I made a dash to the door, my hands pushing on Liam's back to run. I didn't dare turn around until I was forced to when the two of us tried to shut the door.

It was so stiff to push close and the creature was edging closer and closer towards us, the cold metal door barley budging.
It was less than five feet away now, my heart was pounding and it seemed almost impossible to push until it finally budged and with an extra hard boost it slammed shut, my shaking hands moving up to lock as I pushed it along the rusty lock, bolting the door shut, falling down the side of the door in exhaustion as I felt the tingling sensation of my wounds healing.

''Are you okay?'' I questioned to a heavy breathing Liam who still seemed fustrated and full of anger. ''I'm fine..'' He huffed out, his back facing me as I felt a little sympathetic for the boy, the stains of blood on his top visable. His hand was resting on the concrete floor behind me as I could sense the anger radiating off him. Nerves racked through me as I lifted my hand to place ontop of his blood stained one. I pulled it away before breathing out and eventually doing it.

His back seized up as I pursed my lips, feeling my heart rate pick up out of embarassment as I lifted my hand. This is so embarassing.. But before I could return my hand back to my side, his grip grabbed me causing my heart to flutter in shock.

The side of his face turned to me as I noticed the wounds on his face healing, despite it being a normal thing for werewolfs to do it still shocked me whenever I saw another person's cut vanishing off their face.

His whole body spun around to face mine as Liam's eyes turned down to our fingers where he entwined them softly, shyly my eyes landed on his face, holding my breath at his beautiful features. Liam's baby blue eyes scanned my face. It was wrong to, but I couldn't help but listen to his heart rate, the pace increasing as he moved closer to me.

I was shocked when he didn't hesitate to lean forward, his spare hand propping himself up as he leaned closer. The bare skin on our arms grazed against each other's as I swallowed nervously. Of course I would never admit it, but I was actually a pretty shy person in situations like this. I had never once felt like this towards a boy before, heck I had never kissed a boy. Like what do I do?
I suddenly panicked as his thumb grazed against the side of my index finger, soothing me almost like he could sense my nerves. My stomach was fluttering and slowly I moved towards him, gaining confidence as our lips touched softly. In that moment, I swear all hell broke loose inside my body.

Liam's lips pressed against my own, not adding too much pressure as I tenderly kissed him back, the sweet kiss lingering as my hand rested over his shoulder, my fingers lightly playing around with the bottom parts of his hair. My insides felt like they had pins and needles- but in the best way. Of course the feeling was very alien and I was kind of in a little shock at somebody elses lips against mine.

We softly broke apart, his head leaning against mine a soft smile across his lips which caused me to simper a little, mirroring his face. I inhaled slowly, moving off, feeling a weird buzz radiating off me. It may not have been a full blown makeout session or whatever, but it was something I was never willing to forget. The feeling it gave me was amazing.

''We better go find everyone.'' I spoke up as he nodded looking a little stunned from the kiss.
I walked ahead, not wanting him to still see me smiling like an idiot. There was an elavator right in front of me, so I immediatly ran forward, pressing the 'call' button. Waiting for the doors to open.
''Um.. Jenna.'' Liam let out a small chuckle and stood next to me. ''Yeah?'' I replied, tapping my leg inpatiently. ''You do know the powers out.. The elevator wont work.'' The boy spoke making me shut my eyes in embarassment.

''Oh.. Yeah..'' I swear the things this boy does to me..
