《Vampire King》Chapter 19- Trouble

"All of you are Queens!" We cheer, everyone screams as single ladies starts playing.
Her dance moves are so in sync, timed and perfected, uh she's my favourite.
I feel my phone vibrate and I get it out of my pocket, an unknown number shows and I furrow my eyebrows answering.
"Hello?"
I hear screaming and panting in the background "Shae?" Comes my brothers panicked voice.
"REECE!? What's wrong?" I may be mad but that doesn't mean that I don't care.
"Somethings very wrong," he says.
"What's happened? Just tell me!" I exclaim frustrated.
"Some....someone's chasing me," he whispers "the person jumped out of no where and attacked me, crap Shae I'm so S-scared," his voice cracks and I bite my lip not knowing what to do.
"Where are you Reece?" I question.
"Somewhere near North Lakes," I curse.
I grab Sam's arm and she looks at me in confusion "somethings happened to Reece, someone's chasing him Sam," I say trying to be strong.
She nods in understanding "I'll come," I shake my head.
"No it's okay, you can enjoy the rest of the concert," she shakes her own head.
"No don't worry, it's almost over anyway," I nod and we both rush out.
"Reece stay on the phone," I hear his footprints thud against the ground faintly through the loud music.
"What?" He asks not hearing me.
I block an ear so I can hear him more clearly "I said stay on the phone."
"Okay," he whispers "hurry, please," I run to my car and get in and Sam does too.
I start it and put him on loudspeaker, everything is more clear now; I can hear him panting, struggling.
I speed down the road going as fast as I can to get to him "where are you now?" I ask.
"I'm heading towards the shopping centre, look out for the Kmart area," I nod to myself not replying to him.

I hear a Yelp and my heart stops for a second "SHAE HELP ME!" Comes his pained voice.
"WE ARE COMING!" I cry, Sam looks at me panicked.
I swerve into the Kmart area and stop the car, I get out and look around for him "REECE?!" I grab my phone and hear panting.
"Shae!" I hear on the phone and in the distance, I get my flashlight out and squint my eyes.
I see a figure limping and another one behind him, walking though. Why would he be walking?
I bolt towards Reece and Sam grabs him, I look at the men and squint my eyes.
He looks familiar....
I gasp when I see red eyes, brown hair, brown eyes and a strong figure.
Marcus...
Blood is dripping from his mouth and I gasp, he looks behind me noticing Samantha and his eyes widen.
"Sam, Shae?" He whispers, his eyes turn back to their normal colour and I cower away in fear.
"Y-you hurt my brother?" I look at Reece who has a bite mark on his neck and scrapes on his knee.
"I couldn't help myself, he was... There, and so delicious," he licks his lips, his eyes slowly turning black "and I want more," he growls.
"NO, STOP!" I scream, his speed is incredibly fast, he pulls me to him and smirks evilly licking his lips "I've always hated you," I whisper to him.
"Well you will hate me even more," he smirks and slowly but tauntingly brings his head down to my neck.
But something stops him, he looks up, his eyes focusing on a figure behind me.
His eyes turn their normal brown, he backs up and bows his head down to the ground.
All of a sudden he's been slammed into the nearest tree, someone snarling in his face.
"HOW DARE YOU!" The person roars.
I fall to the ground, my legs shaky and Sam rushes to me with Reece at her side. He drops to the ground with a pained face and lays there, Sam looks at the both of us with tears in her eyes.

"What am I going to do? What am I going to do?" She panics.
She puts pressure down on Reece's neck but a masculine arm grabs her wrist, she looks up and gasps.
I keep my head down, Marcus is a monster.
He drinks blood, he's incredibly fast, he's strong, he's a... Vampire.
I gasp and look up noticing Marcus standing in the distance, I gulp and scurry back into... Legs?
I gasp yet again and look up quickly, this day is full of surprises.
"T-Tyler?" I whisper, he smiles softly and I look at my brother noticing the mark on his neck has healed and he's sitting up now.
Tyler extends me a hand and I grab it unsure, he pulls me up. Wait, he slammed Marcus into the tree, he's stronger than Marcus.
Vampire.
I quickly stumble back on my own feet, fear spreading through me "s-stay away from me, please," I plead.
He frowns "I'm not going to hurt you," he whispers taking strides forward and cups my cheek.
He looks at my necklace and pulls it off me "Shae, you won't remember this at all soon but you do know now. You can't know, it only hurts you knowing and it hurts me knowing that you won't ever accept me after this. Yes, I'm a monster; I'm worse than Marcus, worse than any vampire out there because I'm the vampire King."
"Y-you lied about everything Tyler, YOU LIED! Is that why you stayed away from me? Is that why Sam and I got attacked!? BECAUSE OF YOU AND MARCUS!?" I'm angry, upset more than angry though.
"Yes," he whispers. "I have told you before that I'm a bad person, you.... You are too good for me, you are the opposite of me and maybe the gods made the wrong decision making you my mate and bringing us together. But I'm selfish, so that's why I have to do this," he grabs Samantha by the shoulders and looks into her eyes.
"You took Shae to the concert, you had fun, danced and sung, when it was over Reece called saying he twisted his ankle but turns out he needed to walk it off. You didn't see Marcus or me, go in the car," she repeats after him then walks to the car, he then looks at Reece.
"You were walking to the shops when you fell and twisted your ankle, no one was following you, Sam and Shae came to help but you only needed to walk it off. You won't remember any thing else, go to the car."
He then looks at me and grabs my chin gently, I look into his ice blue eyes with my own wide eyes. "You went to the concert, enjoyed it, you and Sam were dancing, singing, having so much fun. But then you got a phone call from Reece after saying he was in trouble, he tripped and twisted his ankle. He couldn't walk so you being the person who cares about him the most, came with Sam to get him and help him, turns out he just needed to walk it off. You didn't see Marcus, you didn't see me, you won't remember any of this," he says.
"I won't remember."
He hands me my necklace and dashes off, I blink and look around.
What happened? Oh right, Reece the clumsy boy twisted his ankle.
I look at my hand noticing my necklace that Tyler gave me, when did I take this off?
I shrug and put it back on, It only reminds me of Tyler.
I sigh and walk to my car, well then.
