Chapter 5 - In my way

~IVY~

Just as I opened the main door, my mom was there with all the groceries she said she was going to get at the supermarket.

"Oh! Ivy, where are you going?", she looked at me surprised.

"Mom! Mom! Are you okay? Thank goodness. ", I hugged her.

"Of course sweetheart! This gentle man here helped in buying all this and gave me a ride home too. One of the reasons I came home early", she turned to reveal the guy.

My breath hitched in my throat.

My heart beat quickened.

"This is my daughter. I have been telling you about Peter! Isn't she pretty?", my mom proudly introduced me to him.

"Sure. She is really beautiful." He stepped forward looking into my eyes.

He took my trembling hand kissing the back of it.

"She is my lovely little kitten. My one and only baby", mom added.

"Soon she will be mine" he whispered, staring deeply into my eyes.

I shivered in fear, his tone made me sick. At that moment,I felt something ringing in my ears and before I could process it, my body was getting closer to the floor and everything suddenly went blank.

The last thing I felt was a pair of strong arms holding me.

I could feel someone stroking my hair as my eyes moved underneath my eyelids.

Mixture of fresh lavender with Clary sage.

A manly scent hit my nostrils as I fluttered my eyes before opening.

I opened my eyes to see him and his piercing dark brown gaze fixed on me.

I quickly forced my body to pull away from his but he quickly held my wrist pulling me back harshly.

"You know what? You are irresistible", his husky deep voice sent shivers down my spine.

"L...leave me! Where is my mom?" I tried to overcome his dominant aura as I struggled to free my wrist.

He smirked lightly brushing my cheeks with the back of his fingers.

I shuddered from his touch, my eyes getting teary.

"Sshhh,shhh,my love! How many times do I have to tell you?... Save these tears for what I am going to do to you... LATER". He said sniffing my hair as he pulled me closer.

"Wh..why are....you doing this....to me?", I squirmed crying trying to get out of his hold.

He is a monster.

A beast.

A murderer.

He isn't human at all.

Does he even have a heart?

I hated him!

"Because I can!"He whispered in my ear, looking at my lips.

"Shit..." , he cursed under his breath.

"I want to kiss these trembling lips of yours but...", he leaned forward towards my lips making me want to let out a loud cry.

I shut my eyes not wanting to see what he was about to do next..

but...he....

He paused.

"But your mother is in my way...", he whispered, getting up from the chair he was sitting on and walking away from me.

Just then my mom walked in.

"Oh! God! Ivy... you are awake. Doctor please" she gestured to a man in a coat to move forward as he started examining me.
