vampire kisses -Chapter 7-A Chapter by DancingInTheDarkI started to stir again as I felt something stroking my hair. It only took me a moment to remember what had happened the previous time I woke up. I bounced upwards, attempting to get away but a strong arm kept me from going very far. My eyes shifted to Jace’s face, which as I suspected had a smirk plastered across it. Jace moved his arm, giving me enough lead-way to allow me to lay on my side right next you him, instead of on him. But no more then that. I laid on my side, involuntarily facing Jace. “So you really don’t hate me?” he asked, his smirk grew larger as he pushed a few strands of blonde hair behind my ear. “Your wrong! I hate you like I’ve never hated anyone before” I hissed, attempting to recover my wounded pride. Jace looked at me questioningly and before he could ask, I answered. “I was tired and Christina showed me back to my room. YOU were in MY bed, so this is your fault” I told him, my face turning a dark shade of red. Jace said nothing for a moment. I studied his face, trying to figure out what he was thinking. He had a strange look tampered across his face that I couldn’t figure out. Then, I relayed the look to the thought. Amusement. Does he really find my anger AMUSING!?! I though, my anger increasing. “Yes, actually I do” Jace replies simply. I opened my mouth to yell at him again but he placed a finger on my lips. “You yell far too much” Jace told me, speaking matter-of-factly. “I do not ye…” I stopped myself from speaking realizing that he was relaying all of my thoughts in his head. Out of sheer frustration I raised my hand and attempted to slap Jace’s face. Quick as lightening Jace grabbed my wrist and held it tightly, to tightly. I pulled and pushed trying to get him to let go, but he wouldn’t budge. “Stop” Jace said. I could have sworn Id seen that glimmer of red that had filled his eyes the first night I met him. I froze. “If I cut ff you hand will you then show respect and do as I say?” He asked me. I thought to myself that he must have been joking but when I looked into his eyes, now blood red, I could sincerely see that he wasn’t.. “I would only hate you more” I said to Jace. For the first time since we met I wasn’t trying to be cruel of prove I was equal to him. “If I send you to be tortured, will you then?” He asked, still deadly serious. I shook my head no, fearing the mere thought that he would do such a thing. “If I lock you away for days, will you not even then?” He asked once again. “I would only wish to kill you” I replied, even though my newborn vampire skills were nothing compared to his own. “Then, will you never choose to be an obedient slave? Even if I were to kill your closest friend?” “I would never obey you, and if you were to kill my closest friend, then I would kill myself, then you would be left here with nothing but a poor girl you’ve tricked into obeying you” I told him, meaning ever word that I said. Silence enveloped the room. Jace stared deeply into mine. I wondered if he was trying to read my mind then suddenly the red left his eyes and they became the pale blue they had been moments before. ‘Then I will find a different way to make you accept my circumstances. My dear girl, you may be a newborn but soon enough you are going to need blood.” He continued to stare at me “You have five days” ‘W-what does that mean?” I asked, my voice trembling slightly. “You have five days to find respect. Five days to accept your circumstances. If you scream out at me, I will punish you, though not to the greatest extent of my ability. For if I did, you would be dead within seconds. If you refuse to do anything I ask of you, or even if you use my name you will be punished. I am your master now, and you will refer to me as such." I thought his words over in my head carefully before coming up with a question. “What if I don’t?” Jace thinks for a moment before answering. © 2010 DancingInTheDarkReviews
