I'm a Vampire. He's a Vampire Hunter. So Why Do I Feel This Way About Him? (14)

Start from the beginning
                                        

I cautiously reached for the rose, picking it up gently. A little note card was on it, attached to it with a black ribbon. I pulled it off.

6.

All it said was 6. The number rang a bell in my head. Braedon had said that the deaths happen every six days.

I had six days.

--(I was going to stop here, it seemed like a good point! But I'm on fire right now. CAN'T STOPPPP. Lol :D)

I was dreaming again, I knew that somewhere in the back of my mind, but I couldn't get out of it.

I was back to the Philip and John dream. Except this time it the day I had met Philip.

The sun was high in the sky, I was walking on a dirt road. The corn on each side of me was tall, and about ready to be harvested.

My white dress went down to my ankles. I was sweating from walking so much, my skin had turned a pail pink, due to my sweat being a light blood mixed with some other things in a vampires body.

I hadn't fed in two weeks, and I was hungry. I heard a horse coming closer, it was about a mile off. I kept walking.

A few minutes went by, just me and my mind wandering. I glanced every now and then at the bugs that were on the corn stalks. It was the only thing reminding me that I wasn't alone in the world. I had about a day's more worth of a walk ahead of my.

I could run, but I kind of liked how quiet it was.

The horse suddenly came up behind me and I put a hand up to shade my eyes from the sun. They were already hurting.

"Excuse me, miss? Do you need a ride into town?" a man asked me. My eyes adjusted and I was surprised to find a handsome young man asking me the question.

I felt my throat burn because of a human being a few feet away.

I decided it couldn't hurt, I nodded and he helped me onto the horse, being careful not to touch me in the wrong places. I noticed he was a little too careful of that.

The man got in front of me on the horse and turned the horse started to trot.

"I'm Philip. You are?" he asked and I noticed his eyes were a brown. The burn in my throat was still there. I would need to feed soon. I smiled.

"Rosemary." I said and he looked shocked. My voice was strangely attractive to humans. We have the looks, the voice to lure them in.

I watched his Adam's apple bob up and down as I smiled really sweet at him.

He watched me a few more moments before going back to watching ahead of us, making sure we didn't run into something.

"So what brings you out here? Surely you know we are getting prepared for a battle. A woman like you shouldn't be out near here." he said, and I felt a little anger bubble inside me.

I could easily fight and kill everyone of the men in the battle. I didn't like being basically called a baby, not being capable of taking care of myself.

"Yes, I know. I was going to be in town before it started." I said dryly.

"At this rate, we'll be in town in about an hour." he said and made the horse go a little faster.

At one point during the ride, he hinted at putting my arms around him to make sure I don't fall off, but I knew he was thinking of another reason why I should.

The sweat was slowly drying, returning my skin to it's normal color, thanks to the wind I got while on the horse.

Like Philip had said, we arrived in town almost an hour later. A few cottages were set up around market stands and a few trees were surrounding the little village. Off to the west I could see a clearing of trees, where the battle was taking place.

I felt a nudge on my side.

"The battle is taking place in six days. Where are you going to stay?" he asked and I shrugged. His brown eyes watched me, and I could already imagine what kind of question he was going to ask.

"You could always stay at my cottage." Philip suggested and I turned to look at him. His brown hair was frizzy from the day of riding. His brown eyes looked a little bit too excited. If I needed too, I would just feed off of him at night, without him waking up.

"Okay." I said. A smile took over his face and he led me to where his little cottage was.

The sunset was starting to take place as he led me there. I could hear another human heartbeat inside when he stopped at the door.

"Who else stays here with you?" I asked curiously, making sure I played the role of a normal girl, not the one I really was.

"My brother." he said and opened the door. The small living space was filled with candles, a man stood at the other end of the room, looking out the window.

I looked at him more closely. He looked exactly like his brother. But so much more handsome. I also noticed he had gorgeous blue eyes, his weren't normal like his brothers.

He turned at the sound of the door opening and his eyes widened when he saw me, a look of shock crossed his face. I smiled at him, making sure Philip didn't notice I did.

Philip put his arm around me and led me forward. I felt like I was being molested, just by the touch of his arm on mine. I held in my disgust and put a casual look on my face.

"John, this is Rosemary." he said and John stood there, watching me. A slow heat was starting to creep up inside me. I didn't know what it was.

"Pleased to meet you." I said, I couldn't help it. This guy was too handsome to be real.

And me being a vampire, that's a lot.

John nodded his head at me, looking a little stiff. But I could tell he liked what he saw.

His blue eyes followed me as Philip took me to another room, showing me around.

The dream flashed to a couple of days later. Philip had been trying to make me do things with him that I didn't want to do. I really needed to feed. I was running low on patience, wanting to get blood before I went mad.

"I can make you feel something you've never felt before." I said to Philip, already having a plan in my head. His brown eyes went wide as he nodded eagerly.

I smiled.

And went right for the good stuff.

He forgot about everything afterwards, not remembering what happened. But at the time I had a feeling he would remember it sooner or later.

The dream flashed to another image the next night.

John and I, in his room while Philip was out getting some weapons for the battle coming soon. The candles were the only light, as I spoke softly to him.

This human made me feel weird. I didn't know what it was. He made me want to get closer to him.

"Come here." I said to him. His blue eyes watched me a few seconds until he slowly came and sat on the low bed with me. I watched him the whole time, I couldn't take my eyes off of him.

A part of me wanted to feed off of him, while the other part wanted to just tackle him and lay close to him. It made me feel vulnerable.

His blue eyes never left my face, and eventually, we both leaned in.

The image flashed again. We were on the battlefield, about ready to fight.

You know the rest.

The only thought I woke up with was this.

I had given them six days to live.

And I was just given six days.
