I went to visit my ex-school once I got up and was standing outside waiting for the three boys I had grown up with. I had texted them that I would be visiting them today and after an hour I saw the boys coming out of the building, Rick and Marc were talking about sothing while Sam was the first one to catch sight of . He waved with a smile as they walked towards the gate.
"Lilly," Rick said engulfing in a hug, "How have you been? Gwen told us what happened," he inford pulling back.
"I’m better," was my truthful reply and he stared at , making sure I wasn’t lying. Marc gave a quick with a grin on his face.
"We weren’t sure if we would ever get to see you again after all that happened," Marc said pulling with his hand towards the parking lot, "She said supernaturals had different dinsions and it wasn’t possible for us to co to et you."
"Yeah, only supernaturals are allowed to enter the place but with higher authorized permission you might be able to step in," I said thoughtfully. I was sure not every supernatural stepped into the human world because if they did, vampires would have killed most of the humans here by drinking blood out of them. Moreover, I did see few humans in the party I had attended with Luke.
"How have you guys been?" I asked them.
"We’ve been doing good, Lilly. We won the semi-finals in soccer and have entered the finals which is going to take place next week. Marc got suspended for four days," Rick answered .
"Suspended for what?" I asked turning to Marc who laughed as though he was recollecting the mory. We ca to Rick’s truck and I scrambled to the back seat.
"He broke Mr. Walter’s nose," Sam sighed.
"Really?" I asked Marc and grinned at him, "I’m sure he deserved it," I said making Marc grin and we did a high-five.
"I don’t know why Marc and you are behind the poor teacher," Sam said sitting next to Rick who was driving now.
"You have no idea," Marc said rolling his eyes at Sam and changed the topic, "Did your parents co too?"
"No," I shook my head, "Mom is in the process of completely recovering from the injury while dad is there with her. I ca with Luke here. He had business here."
"Hmm, I see," Marc replied.
"I’ll be getting married in less than a month," I said out of nowhere and Rick stopped the car suddenly to a halt due to the surprise bomb I dropped.
"What?!" all of them reacted.
"How did that happen?" Marc asked, "When? Where? How? More importantly to whom?" he shot questions.
"To Luke?" Sam asked and I nodded my head. Rick and Marc were staring at with their mouth hanging wide open.
"I know," I answered to their unspoken questions.
"Let’s go to so place and talk," Rick suggested.
We went to a local restaurant and had sothing to eat, sitting there for three hours, talking about my life in the vampire kingdom and various other things. Moving out of the place, a cold gush of wind blew right in our direction and I shivered as goosebumps ford on my skin. Now that I thought about it, the boys could co and attend the wedding. I just had to make sure Luke approved of it.
Apart from my reincarnation story, I told them everything that happened up till now. The sky was peach orange and pink in color, evening turning to night. We had gone to my ho later so that I could ask Mrs. Bank to take care of the garden mom had brought up with so much love and care. We all knew how much my mother loved plants and flowers. They were dropping back to the hotel now and we were on our way talking and laughing as we rembered old mories.
While the car passed a certain block, I looked at one of the building. My eyes not able move away from it.
"Rick, can you stop the car here," I asked without taking my eyes away from the haunted building I had been to long back.
"What’s the matter?" he asked, as he got the car to a halt, turning back from his seat.
"I want to check sothing in that house. Give ten minutes," I said opening the door and walking towards the rampaged house.
"Isn’t that a haunted house?" I heard Sam’s voice behind .
When I entered the house, it looked the sa except for the extra amount of dust that was collected everywhere. As I went up the stairs that creaked with every step I took, I heard Marc and others voice resonate in the hall. I had co here for so answers but I didn’t know if I would get it. I wondered if Glacia the ghost won still resided here.
The place was getting darker as the sky had turned to deep blue in color and no electricity. Pushing the door to the room I looked everywhere but there was no movent or sound to indicate anyone’s presence. Maybe I should wait until midnight for her but what if she wasn’t here anymore.
"Glacia?" I called out her na but to receive no response. Going to the other rooms I called her na again, sighing I turned back to step outside the room before a mind chilling voice spoke.
"Who’s it that disturbs my sleep?" it asked , making stop in my tracks.
My head snapped back to see who had spoken but there was no one I could see through my naked eyes. Sothing moved at the corner of my eye and I caught sight of sothing black like smoke.
"Girl," it whispered, "What are you doing here? Don’t you know this place is haunted?"
"Eh, hello," I said unsure and heard a grumbling sound from the smoke like thing, "Are you a friend of Glacia?" I said.
"I don’t know anyone with that na," it whispered eerily, "Go away," it said.
"I’m sorry but to my knowledge she lives here. The last ti I ca here I t her. I really need to talk to her," I said.
"Should have talked then," the creature in the dark retorted smartly.
"You aren’t a human, are you...hmm demon...but I sll sothing else in the scent which I can’t pinpoint," it said murmuring to itself but enough for to hear, "I know not of the person you are talking about," it said now a little polite making raise my brows. It continued to talk,
"There are things and creatures that can deceive one miss. Creating an illusion which you won’t even realize," it said.
"How long have you been here in this place?" I asked it.
"Centuries, Ms," it answered , "I had been away for few months but to my mory no won with that na has ever lived here. Even if its a ghost, we always leave a trail of our presence."
Was it telling the truth? But what if it was. What if Glacia was just an illusion? I didn’t understand any of it.
"Why are you hiding?" I asked it curiously.
"We prefer not to co in contact with other beings," it answered, "We are the creatures of the dark." It did make the last part obvious.
"I thought vampires were the creature of the dark," I muttered.
"Vampires are our masters, Ms," it replied, "We can see you without the need of light," it replied in its low voice.
"Why do you keep referring yourself as we?" I asked perplexed. The next thing is said made freeze.
"I am not the only one in this room or house apart from your companions. I’m sorry miss but we are part of the vampire family," it said and it took two seconds to process its words.
I heard sothing fall to my right and turned my head to see sothing creeping towards . Shit! I thought. Turning quickly, I ran down the stairs to see the main door closed. Why the heck is it closed?!
Going down I saw Rick, Sam and Marc holding sticks or chairs in their hand. Before I could ask about the door, Sam said,
"The door got locked and won’t open," he said and I looked around to see the dark creatures crawling like smoke on the ground. Suddenly we heard the breaking of wood behind us, giving nearly a heart attack.
Marc had a broken chair in his hand, "I was just testing," he defended.
"Lilly any idea to what these are?" Rick asked as we heard sothing fall and break.
"They are called dark creatures," I replied. That was what the one above I t had told .
As the creatures closed in on us we stood there in stance, ready to beat it but then I doubt if it could get hurt. Before anything more could happen the main door flew open, the door literally crashing on the wall opposite to it. There stood Luke with one of his leg raised towards the entrance, aning he had kicked the door open. Getting his leg in contact with the ground again he walked in, dusting both his hands.
While he made his grand entrance, all of us stood there rooted in our place that included the creatures too. Luke took in the sight lazily with his dark green eyes but they were slowly turning bloody red when his eyes fell on .
"What’s going on here?" he asked coldly.
"Master," there was murmuring in the room from the creatures as they moved into corners and away from us, making my eyes go wide.
Master?!
