Once I'm back in the bathroom I take a look at the clothes he has given me. My face flushes when I get a good look at them more like it. Its a black and white nightie. I my face turned completely red. I don't know what to say or to think, he really can't expect me to walk around wearing this! No, I won't do it. I call out "Do you have something else I could wear?"
He replies "You either wear that or you sleep naked."
I'm really about to cry, I really don't want to wear this, but I really don't want to be naked around a vampire especially this one. So I slip into the skimpy thing, then look at myself in the mirror. I have never worn anything like this before. I feel a little sexy to be honest, the nightie fits like a second skin and outlines my curves perfectly. I timidly walk out of bathroom, he's sitting on the bed reading what looked like paperwork. After a few minutes of me standing there timidly, he looks up. A low rumble comes out of his throat, in a deep sexy voice says "You look like a delicious snack."
He gets out of the bed and stalks towards me. My every instinct tells me to run, but my legs don't move, its as if his predatory gaze makes me unable to move. Before I even realize it hes standing in front of me, his hands are caressing my arms. I look into his eyes I see them turn from that beautiful vibrant green to blood red. That is when my senses come back to me. I go for the door but he has already anticipated what I would do, and his hands that are already on my arms put me back into that vice like grip of his. I finally burst into tears, and my thoughts are jumbled . He pick me up bridal style and lays me on the bed. I try to pull away to the other side, but he has his arms around me, at this point I don't even bother to struggle. He caresses my hair as I lay in his arms. He says as though it were a command "Sleep."
After that I find myself dozing off, falling into dream land.
I wake up the next morning with a jolt, with all of the memories from yesterday rushing in. I wish the whole thing was a nightmare but sadly it is not. I get up out of the bed and I see a not on the pillow next to me.
Belle,
I'm sorry I could not greet you this lovely morning, but I have a meeting to attend to, which will take most of the day, but my friend William and his mate Clare will take care of you.
See you tonight,
Jasper
Out loud I say "So his name is Jasper."
Then I pause "Wait a minute how did he get my name?"
I'm once again thrown into confusion, I storm out the door, maybe this William and Clare will give me answers. As I jog down the halls I see a few vampires and they either smirk at me or give me weird looks. Suddenly my arm is caught in someones hand I let out a high pitch scream, a woman whispers in my ear. "We need to get your dressed or your going to end up being someones next meal."
I gulp, I definitely did not like the sound of that. So I follow her to another room. She sits me down on the bed and and grabs me some clothes. I hurriedly put them on. I notice mirror in the far corner of the room. I have a T shirt on that has the has the number 24 on it and a pair of faded blue jeans. I tell her thank you and she nods "I'm sorry about Jasper's behavior, he actually hasn't been himself lately."
I pause, hasn't been himself. Before I can question her she introduces herself "Sorry for introducing myself sooner, my name is Clare."
So this was Clare she's different from what I expected with her red hair, blue eyes and her sweet smile. We both look up at the sound of a door opening and closing. A man with silver eyes and black hair walks in. He is well built like Jasper is, but he doesn't carry Jasper's cocky attitude. In response to his entrance Clare walks over to him and plants a kiss on his jaw, this instantly puts a smile on his face. Then Clare turns to me and says "Belle, this is my mate William."
I wave my hand in greeting and he nods his head at me in response. Clare then says "Come, you must be hungry."
I smile and nod my head eagerly. I've been so terrified I completely forgot about food and that is so not like me. I follow Clare and William to the dining room, there was no one there now like there was yesterday, which I'm relieved at. Clare then sits me down and goes to what probably is the kitchen. William smiles at me, and he says in a darkly "So Belle, what are we going to do with you?"
I freeze 'what are you going to do with me' , and I definitely did not like the tone he used. Clare then walks in, and scolds William "Will, stop that the poor girl is already frightened."
I am so relived Clare sided with me. I might actually have friend here. Will pouts "I was only teasing her."
Clare retorts "Humans don't tease each other that way."
I had to hold in a giggle, I had to admit they were a cute couple. Clare lays pancakes on the table for me. I stare at them I swear I'm drooling. Forgetting all about silverware I practically dive into the pancakes. Clare and William both laugh at me, I don't care though. After I finish I take a napkin that I didn't notice Clare had got me and wipe the sticky syrup from the pancakes off my face. Clare then takes my plate back to the kitchen. While Clare is in the kitchen I ask William "What does Jasper want with me?"
His face turns stern "I honestly don't know, he has never acted this way before."
Clare said something similar so I take the chance to ask "What is he normally like?"
He says "He's normally cold and aloof. He never cared about anyone before. I'm honestly surprised he didn't kill you."
I'm surprised by his words, I would have taken Jasper as a play boy. William then smiles "Well now that you are here his mood has definitely improved. "
I smile weakly and Clare walks in, and she gives me a smile before giving a scolding look to her mate. Clare then suggests "Why don't we show you around, since Jasper will be at meetings all day."
I nod, I really don't want to be cooped up in a room all day. So I follow her, we walk out of the dining room into a room that is made completely of glass, and vines grew on the columns in the room. It was absolutely beautiful. We exit and continue the tour, after a couple of hours we enter into a sitting room. William plops down on a sofa and Clare sits next to him I take a chair that is in front of them, I'm nervous to ask but I really want to know "So what kind of meetings does Jasper have to attend?"
Clare gives me a nervous look, but William blurts out "His older brother Liam, who is the leader of our coven has been recently injured and is recuperating, so Jasper had to go for him being the general and all."
So Jasper has an older brother interesting. I try to pull more out of William, but Clare cuts in "Well putting that aside, what was life like for you before you came here?"
I think its odd that she doesn't want to talk about Jasper or his brother Liam, but I go with the flow and tell them about my mother and father and that I am an only child. I tell them about the small house I lived in with my parents. After that we talked about other minor things by the time the conversation was over it was dark. Clare took me to the room me and Jasper apparently are going to share. When I close the door behind me I sigh, the day has been a long one. As soon as I finished my shower I flop down on the bed and sleep.
Hello readers, I know the story has been a little slow, and for that I apologize. The next chapter is going to be from Jasper's point of view. Also for the future if you have questions or comments I'll take a look and answer them.
