ALEXANDERS POV
.
EPISODE 51
★ "Alexander, wake up, Alexander!" I heard a harsh whisper. My eyes slowly opened to see Anita standing right there with a worried expression. My head pounded, an evil power surged through my body. Oh no... "We have your area ready, all we need to do is get Violet out of distance from reaching you."
I nodded, unable to speak from the uneasiness in my stomach. "Thank you, Anita. I'll take it from here." I whispered lightly, she nodded and walked out. Violet was cuddled in my arms, wearing nothing but a spaggetti strap tank-top and sweat pants. My left arm was wrapped around her waist as her arms were around my stomach. I kissed her forehead and carefully took her arms off of me. Every movement caused my head pound painfully. It felt as if someone took a hammer and slammed it in the back of my head. I flinched at the visual. Ouch.
I got out of the bed and put on a black thermal long-sleeve shirt. Then I walked out of the room, into the kitchen. Anita had all different sorts of medicine layed out on the counter top.
"Alright, so you know what these are. Derenia will surpress the urge to unleash for a couple of hours longer, Mon Halvalah
will keep your emotions under control, Toxicicalia will keep the pain under control, Zon Fralh will keep the demonic side of your powers surpressed, and Salvaya Nai will keep your body at your original state. It will rid it of the eyes, or hair, or teeth. And everything else. But you know, it is limited. It won't work for long. You have maybe two hours at a maximum."
I sighed, "Yes, I know." I was quiet for a moment, "Please, promise me something." I asked lightly, remembering what I had done to Dara..and...Lydia...
Tears sprung to Anita's eyes, "Anything, Alexander."
"If..No, keep Violet in that room at all times. The piano room." I said softly.
"The Piano Room? She'll have a perfect view of your..power outburst."
I nodded lightly, my head still down, I knew the yellow was starting to eat at my multi-colored irises. "I want her to watch. I want her to see the demon inside of me, that will come on nights as these. I want her to make up her mind if she wants to be with me after she see's the devil lurking inside of me."
"Are you sure you want to do this, sonny?" Anita asked cautiously. I looked up at her now, straight in the eye. I saw the fear in her eyes, I heard it in her voice. But, I knew it wasn't fear of me, it was fear for me. Anita gasped, I looked straight past her and saw my reflection in the metal basin. My hair started to take on the blood red color, my incissors were longer then before, not quite as long as a vampire's fangs though. And above all...were my eyes...yellow glowed from around the whole whites of the eyes.
"I'm sure. I don't want her loving a false lie. When you take Violet into the room after I'm out of her reach, I want you too explain everything . About how I loose control, and.. I'm not myself."
Anita nibbled on her lip then nodded.
"And you know, I don't give you order's. I don't give anyone order's, but...only on this day I do. You out of all people, stay outof my reach. Understand? You have hurt yourself once, Dominic was there to protect you but he is not here any longer either." Her eye twitched but she nodded. My eyes wandered to her legs, since she was wearing a long knee-length skirt, I saw the scar clearly. The scar I gave her. It was a long gash that was approximetly 5 inches wide. Skin had healed over it, showing the rigidness of it. I shuddered and looked away, back at Anita.
"Then let's get started." I muttered, taking all of the pills in one hand, and my jug of water gripped in the other. I popped all of them in at once and swallowed, using the water as an after wash.
"You know...you're supposed to use the water right as the pills are in your mouth?" Anita said, with a smile but worry lingered in her eyes. I smiled at her,
"Yes I do know, but all these centuries have I ever once swallowed it with water?"
She shook her head, "Nope."
My stomach lurched, my head's pounding increased. I put my hand on the side of counter for support, but it just ended up denting it. I fell to my knee's as the pill took action. I heard a small gasp from in front of me. I looked up too see Dara standing there, wearing a navy blue long sleeve with skinny jeans and vans.
Her face fell, "It's that day again, huh?"
I moved my head to the left slightly and closed my eyes, waiting for the pain to subside. Then I looked at her and nodded. "Right. Gotcha!"
How can she be so happy, when she knows what's coming?
"You're staying in the room with Violet also, do you understand? Before the outburst begins, I want you to tell her everything I have done when I'm like this. Show her your scars," I said to both of the girls, "And tell her about Lydia's."
They nodded fiercely as I stood up. Dara tackled me into a hug, I felt her tears stain my shirt, "Geez. You act as if I'm going to go commit suicide or signing my name to the devil."
Anita slapped my arm and dabbed her tears. I heard rustling in the bedroom, then a groan. I motioned to Lydia and Anita. We walked into the room, me with a smile on my face. I walked into the room, Violet had a sweat shirt on now and she was looking out the window. A smile spread across her face and she walked towards me.
"There you are!" She said, laughing. I wrapped my arms around her protectively. I kissed her neck and felt her shiver in pleasure.
"Here I am." I whispered. Violet backed away from me, she stared at me with furrowed eyebrows.
"What's wrong?" Violet asked cautiously. I shook my head,
"Nothing. But for now, let's go for a fly...in your case run."
Violet didn't push me on it, though she knew something was off about me. I gave Dara and Anita a weary look as I picked Violet up, ignoring her protests, and flapping my wings out. Ahh, feels nice to stretch. I bent my knee's and shot up into the sky.
"I thought you said we're going for a run!"
"I changed my mind!" I laughed.
"How many times have I told you? My feet belong on the ground!"
I smirked, "So you want to run, right? And you want your feet on the ground?"
"Yes! I'm glad you understand!"
I smirked again, "Your wish is my command, lovie. " I said then dropped her. She yelped when I dropped her. Violet flailed through the air, I laughed. Oh I wouldn't really drop her! I did a flip in the air and shot down, gathering Violet in my arms again. Her breathing was heavy and her hair was an utter mess. Violet's eyes showed irritation and annoyance.
"I cannot believe you just did that!" She growled.
"Hey, I just did as you asked!"
"Well I didn't mean for you to drop from like 1000 feet above ground!"
I shrugged, "You know it was exhilarating."
"That may be, but that is so not the point right now!"
"Ok ok, I'm sorry, love. Will you forgive me?"
"Hmm..." She thought about it, "Nope."
I know a way she would forgive me, I landed on a high branch of a tree and before she could escape, I pushed Violet's back against the tree and bent so close that my breath tickled her face.
"Oh and what's this s-supposed to do?"
"This isn't supposed to do anything." I bent closer, so my lips brushed hers, "But this is..." I whispered, but decided to make her suffer. I kissed down from the side of her mouth, kissing her neck, sometimes, my tongue poking out. Violet moaned,
"A-A-A-Alexander, stop." She begged. I smirked. My kisses trailed to her collarbone, then back up, around the hollow of her neck then up to her mouth again.
"Will you forgive me now?" I whispered. Violet moaned in reply. Does this really have that much effect on girls? Violet's hand traveled to my cheek and brought my mouth to hers. Just before our lips would touch, I stopped. Violet whimpered,
"Do you forgive now, Miss Violet Charest?"
Violet groaned, "Yes, Yes I do Alexander Laire, now kiss me already! I'm dyi-" Before she said anymore, my lips were on her's moving fluently. I pushed Violet further against the trunk of the tree. If that was possible. Violet's tongue traced my bottom lip, as mine traced hers. She opened her mouth a little and I hungrily traced her teeth, her gums, everything. Finally, I pulled away, both of us panting.
"Come on, I want to show you my favorite spot of all times." I said.
"Can I run?" Violet complained. I shook my head,
"I'm more comfortable with you in my arms."
Violet sighed, "Fine..." She said, carrying it out.
I shot my wings out and flew above the tree's. "Close your eyes." I whispered.
"But-"
"Just do it, Violet."
"Way to be cliche, Alexander!" I sighed and pressed the back of Violet's head to my chest. I felt her smile, and body grow warm. Violet inhaled deeply. Finally, from above the canopy of tree's, I heard the rushing of water, the rustle of the grass hitting eachother as the breeze pushed it. I landed gracefully and let Violet's head go. She immeaditaly looked around and gasped, taking in the beautiful scenery of the perfect waterfall that fell from the cliff, with the pool of water surrounding it. Rocks surrounded the big pond and soft, thin, light green grass surrounded the rocks, leaving a small meadow. Flowers bloomed in the middle of the meadow. Tree's and ferns surrounded the meadow, which was followed by the forest.
"This is seriously gorgeous." Violet mumbled, "How did you find it?"
"Love, I've been living for centuries!"
"You haven't told me your true age yet..." She mumbled.
"You sure you want to hear it?"
Violet nodded,
"359 years old."
Violet's eyes widened, "So I'm dating a man who's ashes?"
"I guess so!"
She crinkled her nose, "Ew."
I put a hand over my heart, "Ouch, lovie. That hurts."
Violet laughed and strode over to me, "That doesn't matter to me though." She whispered before kissing my lips. I smiled, my smile slightly faltered when I felt the small pounding return. Was it already two hours? I checked my phone time, no... the pounding became louder. I gathered Violet in my arms once more,
"Let's go." I said in an off voice. Violet looked worried. My wings shot out once more and I pumped them as fast as I could go, back to the castle. The pounding became louder...louder...LOUDER! I fell on the balcony of my window.
"Alexander! Alexander!" Violet shrieked. All my mind heard was
kill, blood, kill her. You want blood, blood-shed. No! I don't want that!
I looked at Violet with pained eyes, but she gasped at what she saw. Yellow eyes, glowing yellow eyes with a slit in between them, identical to a cats. Firey red hair, and fangs. My nails grew out to claws, and I felt my wings shot out. Violet look terrified but shook it off, as if she didn't care. You should care. Dara and Anita were in front of me in a second.
"ALEXANDER! ALEXANDER!" Violet shrieked, struggling against them. A man with a dark coat came out and slung Violet over his shoulder, she shrieked and fought against him. 6 other men walked out, all muscular and toned. Resist! Kill them! The voice snarled at me. No! Alexander, you must not resist! Not once! It hasn't taken effect, stay yourself till then! I said to myself. Easier said then done when a demonic side ate away at your restraint.
"Hurry." I snarled. The men nodded, their pure white wings flapping out and dropping my into the middle of the clearing. Across from where Violet sat. Her head in her hands. My Violet. She raised her head, looking at me with an worried look. She wasn't scared.
Pain shot through my body and shrieked. Falling to my knee's. My wings stayed out and erect, never moving. I was on all fours, yelling, swearing. Don't give into the pain Alexander! Do NOT give in!
It felt as though someone had taken a lighter and burned me in every possible angle, little at a time. My body convulsed, it shook violently. Little pin-pricks stabbed in me. Now it felt as though someone was taking melted iron and shoving it down my throat, it painfully slid down. I threw my head back and screamed out loud again. My body jolted upwards. My pants turned into small growls. It felt as thought someone shoved their hand into my ribs and broke each one, one by one, then sliding up to my throat. The pain felt like someone was taking acid and painting it on the insides. Then it felt as if my heart was being squeezed. The 'hand' slid down to my stomach and cut it up into little pieces. I didn't realize that I had been yelling into the sky the whole time.
It's time to give in, Alexander ! The voice sneered, Missed you. It's my turn now, though.
A black color erupted around Alexander, englufing his body in its transparency. His body was now slightly hunched over, in a dangerous position. The screaming stopped, the yelling stopped, now it was eerily quiet. His lips were pulled into a snarl, and nothing was heard but the rumbles of his growls. The black power around him grew. Then a dark purple power erupted from inside his chest. It was a foggy color.
A color had grown underneath his palms, and he aimed it at the castle, erupting with so much power, the stone slowly crumbled down.
The castle was prepared for this, as it was every full moon. Violet watched, terrified from the window, slowly taking in what Dara and Anita were saying and what her boyfriend was doing.
Alexander heard nothing but the dark whisper, "Blood, Blood, Blood, Blood," It whispered, "Kill, Kill, Find something. Kill something. Torture it. Hurt it. Enjoy the screams. "
Alexander's feet walked into the forest. His body disappearing into the tree's. He soon came back out, his now red hair was covered with a crimson red color. The yellow eyes looked happy, happy that he killed something, someone. A body walked in, it was almost impossible to see, but if you looked closely, you saw the light purple power that wrapped around the human's neck as a leash. The man looked terrifyed.
"Enjoy your kill. Torture the human.. " It whispered. And that is exactly what Alexander's body did. He pulled the power towards him, the human falling forward and whimpering. Alexander pushed the body down and straddled it. Ripping its shirt off, then dragged his finger nail across his chest. The man screamed a blood-curdling shriek.
"Alexander stop! Alexander! Alexander! Alexander! Stop! Please! Stop!" Violet shrieked from the other side of the glass.
"It won't help, Violet. He can't hear you. Who you see is not Alexander. It's just using his body, he has no control." Anita whispered. Violet whimpered, tears falling from her eyes to see her boyfriend being used as a rabid animal. Dara wrapped her arm around the vampire.
Alexander had taken out each organ of the man and placed it on the side. The man was still alive, spitting blood up. His eyes bled with blood, his nose, his ears, his scalp. Everywhere. As soon as Alexander ripped the heart out, the man fell still, he filled the empty shell with the power and wrapped it up. Within 5 seconds later, the body erupted, raining flesh pieces and bones. The demon laughed.
I watched through the eyes of the killer, felt what the killer was doing. Yet it wasn't me, this wasn't me. He was using my body. This is exactly why I hate witches. I'm a cursed angel.
My hand jerked forward and pulling the little girl forward. She cried, she was sobbing, begging to be let go. I once again, tried to get my power back. But no use. The maniac laughed and jumped on top of the girl, she shrieked but he dug his teeth into her neck and ripped off pieces of her flesh, then spit it into her mouth. She screamed and bled.
Please please please stop! Don't hurt her! Stop! I begged. But he didn't listen. I heard a faint scream and heard glass break. No...no.. this can't be happening. The power around my body grew. The body turned around to see, my beautiful Violet, slowly inching closer to this monster.
STOP! STOP! VIOLET DON'T COME ANY CLOSER! STOP! VIOLET PLEASE! STOP! THIS ISN'T ME! STOP! I begged. If Violet comes closer, I'll repeat the same thing that happened with Lydia and Dara. Maybe worse. This beast is controlled today, yes I mean controlled. The demon raised a finger towards my girlfriend, I put my energy to get the finger down, stop! A dark purple staticy light shot out, wrapping around Violet's waist and pulling her closer. No.. no..STOP! STOP!
Violet was terrified. Her eyes shone with the worst fear, her bottom lip trembled but she still stopped. Violet tried pulling away put the power is invincible. Nothing can break it. He wrapped a hand around her neck and she flinched. He ran it down her neck. Stop! She isn't yours! I snarled. The hand stopped were it was.
"Alexander? You can hear me right?" Violet whispered. Yes Violet, I can hear you! "Show me a sign!"
The hand kept traveling lower, put I willed it to stop. If I did it anymore, this thing would kill my soul. I have done it, but my father has implanted something inside of my brain willing me to stop, when I get into this state.
"Oh dear God, Alexander you can hear me! Stop him!" Easier said then done!
The demon engulfed my mind and I now longer heard Violet, I didn't feel her touch, I couldn't stop anymore. The demon pushed Violet back, letting her go. W-What? Then it conjured lots of power,
"I know you can hear me Alexander! You won't hurt me!"
I won't but he will! RUN! And that was the last thing I could think, because the demon used the power as a whip and stuck it through her heart.
My body froze and fell to the ground. It started shaking violently.
When I woke up, I was in the bed in the infirmary. The annoying beeping of the I.V and heart rate bugged me. What happened?
But when I sat up, everything flooded towards me.
My power outburst. The way not being able to think. The urge to kill. The girl. Violet...
I threw the blankets off of me, ignoring Esmeralda and Anita and opened the door to her room. She lay there motion-less, eyes closed, and a big bandage across her body. No...No...that wasn't me. But it was.
I closed my eyes, two tears falling down. I walked over, and kissed her lips. I've made my mind. I'm leaving.
I was on my balcony when Anita ran in, "Do not say anything to stop me. I'm leaving. I don't when I'm coming back, maybe an hour, maybe two, maybe a day, or two. But no longer then a week. I promise."
I whispered and flew into the night time sky.
