Revilum 2
Man!, here we go again!, I told myself while Jade is looking at me frantically. I smiled aback and jumped off my seat to shower and go for my rounds at the hospital, It's been slow nowadays due to Covid patients flocking the emergency area and most of the rooms at Southern Hospital. But I advised my patients that I will do house visitations in case they needed it and I have two of my patients on their three month cycle. So I need to visit them later. Jade will be auditioning later too at the California Theater since she requested to finish her contract with the London group for now.
It's not easy to plan for something which I think would flunk when Alicia's obsession with Gin gets in the way. She is a mad dog that wanted revenge and claim her mate just like that. But I told her that she needs to wait for the perfect timing. The perfect moment for her and I to get what we want but not in a brutal or insane way. I needed a diversion and Walter seems the perfect bait for our plan.
Megan is now on her way to her last patient. Though Covid isn't that rampant anymore, people are still cautious, so the young mother who called Meg a couple of days ago since she's been having episodes and tummy aches. The sweet doctor went in the simple abode of the young couple. Mrs. Lieber is a beauty, she is about 5'6" tall and she was gorgeous when I first met her at the clinic. She is always smiling but now she looked pale and her husband said that she's been laying on the bed for three days. With one look at her I know something is definitely wrong. I checked her pulse and it's rapid and then tiny pulse which I suspect is the baby's is skipping a beat. My God, she is going to die if not sent to the hospital. The nearest one we have in their area is a small hospital of St. Bards.
I told Mr. Lieber that consequences and he eagerly offered to drive my car to take his wife and I to St. Bards. At the hospital I told the nurses there what's wrong with the patient and that she needed surgery right away before it's too late. I helped out in checking and taking out of the baby, poor thing, he didn't make it due to many complications that his mom suffered. He died in his mama's womb due to lack of oxygen. Mrs. Lieber had pneumonia and the baby caught it thus didn't survive the seventh month of the pregnancy. I almost cried but we did our best to save the baby, but Lieber Jr. left the world at 12 midnight.
Mr. Lieber sobbed outside the emergency room but composed himself walking inside to comfort his emotional wife. Veena was there to witness all that was happening and she regretted to see how Meg's life is so affected by the people and patients she save each and everyday. She envies her mate but thought of not going through the plan to kidnap Gin and Meg at the same time. Alicia would be furious of course but then again, Meg has an important mission in the world and I wouldn't make her a monster like me just to delve into my desire to make her my bride. Do I feel guilt killing people or the men I devoured to feed, no, but I regret the day I met Meg that her scent captivated me and that I wanted her like the air I breathe and I would kill or feed at a heart bit just for her and to please her.
That's is how much I love her and Alicia didn't belive in such hypocrisy. She believes that we desire for love because we want to be loved or be cared for, so as not to be alone in this world or the world we call our own. A world that is cold, bloody and dirty. A dungeon under the heathens, full of rats, filth and crimes. I wished my life to be different but I was not given the chance to be the difference. I was mocked, feared and called a criminal for the people I killed. But nobody knew cause whenever I did, I just take the heart in secret and as if the person just died of a heart attack or by a sudden illness that caused his or her death.
Our pact is like a plague that comes in the night and takes souls when they least expect it, just like death. And we are death. I am ashamed of what I do and the things I would be doing but this is me and I can't change it anymore. I am a monster but a creature that has a heart for Megan. I would do anything even to give my life up just to protect and see her live a full life even if we don't end up together.
Aha, selfless love bull shit!, didn't you know that I see your mind and I know what youre' thinking. Foolish girl!, Megan won't love you for she loves Jade, so the easiest way to deal with that is kill the fiancée and get on with the plan, Alicia suddenly appeared in front of me as we are both hanging on top of the hospital's roof but far away where people and patients could see us. Alicia, hello to you too!, I don't recall asking for your permission or even asking for any advice concerning Meg. It's none of your business and .....Veena explained but Alicia interrupted her. It is my plan too and we are in this together. If you back out now it's ridiculous. I would still continue with the plan and take what's mine. Gin is mine and I wouldn't want Alexa to and him to live happy together, ever!, the woman said stubbornly.
No, I understand you but you see Alicia, we will live a boring and cold life but they will die too even if we possess them as our mates. Believe me, I tried to turn girls to becoming a monster like me for centuries but I still couldn't make them immortal. They age and couldn't live up to my expectations, so I eat their hearts and just find another girl to love. Yet, I'm tired and dying to rest for another century so that I would just wither like rotting timber that is cut down, become a log for fire or just be swept by the rivers or seas currents and take me somewhere I could be at peace.
But Alicia has other plans in mind. She is determined to take Gin if not by sweet words by force is he won't cooperate. That's an emotional crap that I won't take not now. Veena what's wrong with you!, Alicia added looking at Veena with hate in her eyes. I just thought that maybe we can be good citizens or people because I think I have wasted my life killing, eating and having sex with every girl I fall in love to but never felt true love until Megan. Suit yourself but I don't believe in true love but revenge, Alicia cried and disappeared in front of Veena who is still hanging not far from St. Bards Hospital's roof.
She just stood there in awe still looking at Meg who is now resting on her arms at the terrace of the hospital, drinking coffee, maybe, sulking and sighing heavily with what happened with her patient. She talked with Mr. Lieber and he is happy I saved his wife but I regret not saving the little one, it's heartbreaking. I was tired and texted Jade that I'll be staying at a nearby motel near St. Bards and rest. See you tomorrow babe, okay, Thanks, I love you too!, I added while drinking the last sip of my coffee. It's cold now and I couldn't think of anything but sleep my way through this misery.
Veena is still close and she walked invisibly from the street to the motel up the stairs without the guard noticing. She bumped into a bottle of beer that the guard maybe drank earlier, why he is asleep soundly on the job, which If I were his boss I'd fire him in moments like this that I could sneak in Meg's room without anyone catching me.
I was able to sneak inside Meg's bedroom and heard a someone crying. It's Meg, she's sad and I wanted to comfort her, but I just really desired to see her and ask for her forgiveness, then leave. But still in my invisible mode I touched her on her hair and kissed her on her cheek. Meg felt it but she smelled me I think, because she hugged me, she knew it's me. I know it's you at the bar and everywhere I go. I feel you. I want you and I desire to be with you. I don't know what you did to me but your presence makes me feel safe and protected, loved and ...Veena??, Meg called out when she finally saw that it was me.
Yes, I'm sorry I did things at the bar and yes it was me all along. I wanted you far more than my life but now I changed my mind, Veena said honestly. She was about to leave but Meg caught her arm and pulled her close to her and kissed her lips passionately. Stop, Meg, please don't let me do this, you are just attracted to my scent and everything that is me is alluring and tempting because I was cursed to be that way for you to be hooked and addicted. But I want you to live a normal life because I see you do good to people as a doctor and they need you. I'm a mons....., Veena wanted to point out that she is evil and a monster that Meg need to stay away from her.
Not this time Veena, I want you and I want you now in me....Meg cried and kissed me forcefully that we fell to the ground. My eyes flickered and changed to bloody red, I couldn't stop the urge and neither did Meg when her eyes turned yellow. We both felt the force pulling, bringing us together and we both needed this.
