Allesia's POV:
Slow footsteps padded behind me, harsh breaths following soon after. Their pace was increasing every second. My heart palpatations increased, every thud sending shivers down my spine. I shouldn't have opted for the shortcut, I thought to myself. It led to my undoing.
If the bus hadn't had been late, and if I had any ounce of patience left in me I would have waited for the next. But instead I'm left fearing for my life in a dingy alleyway, barely visible through the thick mist of the night.
Light started to pour in through end of the seemingly never ending alleyway. Hope. I can make it, I thought. Silent prayers flooded my head just as a callous hand grabbed my arm causing me to fling backwards like a ragdoll.
My arm ached, I flinched as a rough voice tore through the silence of the miserable alleyway.
His fingers traced my arm, I felt disgusted. Hatred flooding my veins. "A girl like you shouldn't be here, alone." he said. I struggled against the inhumane strength of the person on the other end. I whipped around to meet black eyes, eyes that carried a malicious lust that could turn blood to stone.
My breathing was harsh, our breaths mingled in our close proximity. y face turned in distaste. "What do you want with me? Please let me go you can have my purse, my watch anything you want!"
He laughed, a slow agonising laugh. All I could think of was my dad waiting or me at home. My heart ached.
"I wasn't expecting such a fine.." he turned my face towards him and gripped my chin, his fingernails digging into my skin "specimen.." I could feel his breath, hot and steady however his touch was cold to the bone.
I tried to wrench myself away but to no use, this was it. This was how it's going to end. I looked at the man again, only to see to my horror two fangs sprout out of the mans gums. I was stunned. 'Who was this man, correction, what was this man?' His fangs drew closed and closer to my neck as my breathing escalated, my heart dropped.
I kneed him in the crotch.
He recoiled in pain as he fell to the ground. "Ah, you bitch!"
I heard shuffling as he fumbled to get up. I started to run as fast as my legs would take me, adrenaline pumping in my veins, fuelling my will to live. I reached the end of the alleyway just as a car pulled up. My dads car, I would recognise that anywhere. I whispered silent thanks to God as I rushed to imanent safety.
"Allessia get in the car, NOW!" my dad yelled, his eyes wide.
"But-but dad how- how did you know where I was?" I said as I opened the door hurriedly.
