Be Careful When You Bite Me

Chapter 20



Chapter 20

“Damon is that you?”

Damon turned back to look at the approaching man. He was tall and lean, with spiky jet black hair and

matching eyes that had no pupils.

Beside him was a girl with the same hair and eyes as him. She was almost as tall and lean with skin as

white and smooth as porcelain. She looked like someone but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it.

“Mathoes, Elisabeth,” Damon greeted, his body tensing up immediately.

I sensed the aura change as if something bad was suddenly about to happen.

“What are you doing on our side of the woods,” the girl voice was slick and smooth.

“Came to visit an old friend.”

“A fellow Cold One, or was it a witch like your brother does,” Matheos smiled as if enjoying himself.

“How are you Matheos,” Damon didn’t sound like he let that comment effect him,” you haven’t come by

the castle to visit your cousin in a long time.”

“How is our dear cousin,” Elisabeth said,” are you and Seth keeping her busy.”

I immediately knew that they were talking about Isabelle and it clicked in that that’s who Elisabeth

resembled.

Matheos’s eyes lingered my way and he lost his smile, his expression turning predatory.

“I didn’t peg you for the type that needs to play with his food before he eats it,” his fangs were slightly

more extended now and the neon red lights reflected directly off his hungry eyes in a way that made

me nervous.

I felt Damon’s sudden hands clamp around the bottom leg of my stool and pull me closer to him.

“She’s a foreigner,” his voice was calm and he didn’t sound as cautious as I knew he felt.

Elisabeth skimmed her eyes over my neck, no doubt examining the scars,” So then who’s been

breaking the law.”

Damon chucked,” As if you care about the law.”

Her unamused eyes flickered back towards Damon,” I care about the council who’s going to have a

hard time believing your side of the story when your human has more bites on her neck then a villager-“

Damon’s voice was angry and authoritative when he snapped,” I’m handling it.”

I felt my throat clamp up and struggled to form the words that were at the tip of my tongue. I leaned into

Damon’s shoulder and whispered,” I’m going to go find a bathroom.”

Damon nodded without looking at me,” be quick.”

I scrambled to my feet, well aware of Matheos and Elisabeth who had their eyes glued to me.

I headed towards the end of the bar where Ade was pouring drinks and leaned in towards her,” Hi, can

you tell me where the bathroom is?”

Her eyes lit up in amusement and she smiled,” what’s in it for me?”

I stayed silent, wondering if she was serious.

She placed the newly poured drinks on the table towards a group of guys. One of them leaned towards

me,”she’ll never tell you, she’s a faerie, keep going this way, it’s down that hallway, first door is the one

for humans like us.”

I noticed that he had the same bites I had on his neck.

I nodded, slightly confused,” o-ok, thanks.”

I pushed pushed past dozens of bodies before finally finding the hallway and then the bathroom.

It was filthy on the inside with paper wet toilet paper cover ring most of the ground and faucets that

were left on. Out of the three stalls, two were in use. Feeling the sudden urge to vomit, I pushed past

that and headed towards the vacant stall.

After finishing up, being careful not to let myself touch anything, I began to pull up my pants when I

noticed the stall beside me had two people in it.

From the small distance between them I could tell that they were in a very tight embrace.

I quickly headed out back towards the sinks that looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in ages. I

washed my hands and examined my tired face in the mirror. I couldn’t help but notice how ordinary I

looked compared to Luna and Elisabeth and lest I forget Isabelle.

I sighed out loud and tried to run my fingers through my hair in an attempt to give it some more volume.

In the mirror I saw the door to the stall behind me open up slightly and reveal the figures inside. My

eyes widened in shock when I seen that it was a human. Lips and teeth tug dug deep into her neck by

no doubt, a vampire.

She had a smile on her face, her eyes rolling back in pleasure and she was panting something I

couldn’t quite here.

It looked like the bite was giving her intense pleasure and her hands wrapped around the vampires

head as if trying to pull him closer.

She grew louder with her moaning and I could make clear of what she was saying which was,” more.”

I remembered the man at the bar with the bites on his neck and realized what Damon had meant when

he said that there were humans in here too that knew about the Underworld.

They weren’t friends to the Underworld, they were volunteers.

I quickly left the bathroom and wondered if every human thing I decided to do from now on would be as

scarring as this. I couldn’t even go to the bathroom without being traumatized. NôvelDrama.Org content.

I shivered at the thought of what could be next and began to head back towards Damon when I caught

sight of an exit door.

It was wide open, at the very back of the bar, the red Exist sign flickering as if alerting my focus. It was

unsupervised and I could see the outside from here. I could tell it led to an ally, I could see the bricks

from the other side and they were almost inviting me.

I looked ahead of me to try to catch sight of Damon but there were too many people in the way.

I remembered what I had thought on the way over here. I needed to be home, I needed to get out of

this life and forget I

had ever been exposed to it.

I took a step towards the door, and then another and another until I was finally walking at a brisk pace

and before I knew it, I was face to face with the fresh air.

I left my feet do the thinking because my mind felt a twinge of quilt that I couldn’t understand.

I stepped out and took in the breath air that tasted like freedom. I looked to my right and left and

wondered which way to go.

Was I running away?

No....just going for a walk.

If I happen to get lost....well.
