The Werewolf's Vampire Mate
Chapter 49: In her head.

Chapter 49: In her head.

Maddie.

A year ago.

"You’re coming to this party, right?" Caitlin my best friend asks with a wide smile on her face. I stare at the screen of my laptop not really interested in our conversation. She is trying to drag me into a party and I am not interested.

I have been searching for something all my life. Something that is so rare but exists and the fact that I have finally found what I am looking for is all I can think about. No one knows what I am talking about, no one will believe me if I even mentioned it out loud.

Creatures like this don’t exist.

it is impossible to even think they are real but I know for a fact that they are because i have seen one before. I was just 10. I walked in on something I shouldn’t have and ever since that Is all I can focus on. I have wanted to meet a vampire since I was a child, I have wanted to be one all my life.

Suddenly I find one and he is in our school.

Alanis Dravon.

The fact that he is real and so close to me makes me giddy. I can finally be who I was meant to be all along.

"I don’t want to go," I groan with hopes that she will take the hint and let it go but if I know Caitlin, I know she doesn’t let go of things that easily.

"Guess who is going to be there," there is a gleam in her eyes as she tries to lure me into this party. I know instantly who she is talking about. Alanis is my latest obsession. Caitlin is aware, I have been, should I say, stalking him for the past month. I follow him everywhere he goes until the day he finally notices me.

It will happen, I know it will because I am persistent. Before i found out that he was a vampire, I did my search online. It was not easy because most of the people I met were perverts with weird fetishes claiming to be vampires. I’m sure you’re wondering how I found out about Alanis. It wasn’t like I searched for him in particular. It was the biggest coincidence. One day after school, I bumped into him and his drink poured on me, I mean all over me.

And what was in the cup?

You guessed right.

Blood.

He tried to explain in a way to get me off his track but I knew instantly. I could smell and feel it. He couldn’t get me to believe his out. Suddenly all my hard work was paying off. I was finally going to get what I have always wanted. Knowing that he was so close to me made it easier.

Made things better.

"So, you in?"

She is watching me like she already knows that I am. Well I am suddenly interested in the party. I want to meet him again, and this time not because I am stalking—okay maybe I am stalking him by going to this party because he will be there but this is my chance. My chance to finally be exactly what I was always meant to be.

***********************

After the breakup.

He broke up with me.

After everything we have been through, he chose to end it all. I have done so much to be with him, I worked so hard to be the girl for him. It wasn’t easy, considering all the things I knew about him. I know who he really is and I accepted it.

Okay, maybe I chose him because of who he is. That might have been the selfish reason but I ended up falling for him. It wasn’t just about who he was anymore. Yes, it made me want to be like him more but I still loved him.

It’s been a day since he broke up with me and I haven’t been able to do anything. I’ve been in bed all day, thinking about how I lost everything I wanted so bad. It wasn’t easy finding Alanis. Knowing who he really is, it took a while and when I found him, I had to make him mine.

"Mads" my room door opens and Caitlin walks in almost like she is expecting what she sees. Me in bed, under the covers depressed. I have every right to be miserable because I lost everything. Everything I worked so hard for. I look at her through a little hole I created with the duvet and she sighs loudly "Get up," she pulls the covers off me and I groan miserably.

"Stop," I try to grab the covers from her but she is faster than me.

"You stop, I left you for Peru all happy and now I have an Emo best friend."

Cut me some slack, I just lost my boyfriend and the chances that came with being with him, all in a moment. I don’t know why Alanis broke up with me, i still have no clue.

"Why are you here?"

She sighs again "I am here to get you off this bed and out for a girls night with me, I need my best friend back." he grabs my leg and I slide down the bed and to the floor. Chuckling, she walks over to my closet and grabs a dress from it "Come on, have a shower, get dressed and lets get you out of this house."

Her offer is tempting, I know she is worried and my parents are worried. I told them about Alanis. i could see the pleased expression on their faces. They never liked him; they are glad that we had broken up. They didn’t care about how I felt. How I wasted a year of my fucking life for nothing.

****************

"A bar?"

She nods with a bright smile "Yes, i want to get you piss faced drunk, so you forget all about Alanis," she opens the door of her Honda car door and walks out of it. I look at her, in her tiny shorts and tank top and wonder how she would even think it’s a good idea for two high school kids to go into a bar full of adults. I get down from the car because at this point in my life I don’t really care about anything.

"I got us fake ID’S" she waves it in the air and I have to grab it from her to stop her from flashing the obvious that we don’t belong here. "You want to get us caught before we even get in?"

Walking into the bar, we stick out like a sore thumb. This is not one of the high school scenes. Russo’s bar is the regular one but I know for a fact that Alanis goes there and I don’t want to bump into him right now. I am still very pissed at him, I have this anger in me, somehow, I want to make him pay for hurting me. I am not going to give up on my plans. All I have to do is find a new prey. this town is full of vampires. His whole family—they think they are not obvious but i know what they are hiding. They can’t be the only ones, there must be more and I will find one and then I will make Alanis pay. He will get what he deserves for hurting me.

"Come on," Caitlin intertwines her arm in between mine and pulls me to one of the tables. I sit down on the bar stool and she winks "I’ll go get the drinks. I am a more believable adult."

This place doesn’t look like they give a shit about ID’s. They probably won’t even ask. I watch Caitlin in the far corner as she flirts with the bartender. He is an older looking man, looks to be in his late twenties. It is totally wrong but she is looking at him like she wants to have him for dinner. Her fingers brush against his arm and he smiles, almost like he is inviting her. I roll my eyes because I know how the night will end. She is going to go home with him.

He gives her two big glasses of what looks to be beer and she skips all the way to me "Here you go girlfriend," she winks as she drops mine in front of me. I grab the handle of the glass and lift the cup until it is on my lips. I have never been a fan of alcohol but at this moment, if it’ll make me feel better then I’d gladly take it. "Aren’t you already feeling better?" she asks me curiously.

"Not at all," I take another sip of my drink.

She groans "Come on, have some more," she reaches for my glass and pushes it into my mouth. A whole gulp passes down my throat and the bitter after taste lingers in my mouth.

I look around and everyone seems to be having the time of my life. I hate that i have this incomplete feeling within me. I am so empty and I thought I would finally get the chance chance to be complete. I thought I would finally get the ending I craved all my life.

A man seated on the bar counter is watching me and the expression on his face is alluring. He is as pale as the coldest winter snow, his green eyes pierce into my soul from the distance between us. I feel it before he smiles, I feel something that pulls me to him.

I feel a connection.

It pulls me.
