ALLURING DREAMS - DEE CARTER (polar express read aloud .TXT) 📗

stated to take his toll but also how alexander seemed to be in tune and pick up on this too even though he knows nothing of what I am. Doc seemed very surprised and also happy for me and asked me the daunting thing of have I ever thought of telling alexander but I think he got from the look of death I threw at him as a hell no I aint do you think I'm stupid kind of of look he chortled a laugh “well you know Kristen us vampires are everywhere how do you know he isn’t one himself or he knows you are one yourself stranger things have happened I threw a book that was on the table next to me straight at him missing him by inches oh this is great he’s in hysterics now “glad you find me funny doc” he laughed again his laughter was musical it instantly gave me peace and tranquillity he stood up heading for the door “just wait here Kristen” I stretched my hearing to listen I heard him walk into the kitchen trip over the stool and open the refrigerator he grabbed what seemed to be 4 items and closed the door and walked back through the kitchen and back into the room “ here this should see you for a few days he passed me 4 bags of donated blood cooled to the right temperature and already to drink I could feel the fire in my throat igniting and the pain all at once, I opened one to have a sniff and the next minute I know I’ve dribbled blood on docs rug the whole pouch that was once full of blood was now just an empty wrapper I threw it in the bin and straight away I felt invigorated and highly dangerous oh god I needed more I opened the second and drank to my heart’s content it slid down my throat and tenderly kissed all the way to my stomach it was filling me up and and the burning sensation was going and I suddenly realised I felt somewhat whole again but in a different way things started coming back to me piece after piece it was somehow giving me the strength to remember things thing that only moments ago where muddled. Doc looked at me with a look of displeasure,” Kirsten you really should drink more often, you have left it so long.you have got blood all over my rug which is very hard to get out you know”.” sorry doc”was my response.” I’ve remembered certain things I couldn't remember a moment ago”. He looked at me with eager eyes”yes, what have you remembered then don't keep me waiting “he said with an eager tone.
“Well when I saw my mother she was singing a song in Latin”. The words were very familiar I tried to dictate word for word doc was now at his laptop tapping furiously, he was dictating what I was singing and when I stopped he hit translate, he put on his reading glasses and was reading. All of a sudden his face had a look of confusion spread across it.He took his glasses of looking straight at me “this song is in fact Latin but also British it is the song from beauty and the beast why would she be singing this song to you in your dreams.it seems to be some sort of a warning “he looked alarmed. I was sipping on my third unit of blood, looking at him apologetically, I put the blood down “yes she was warning me off two men but one in particular, she kept saying he was a monster and I use to know him and I was possibly in love with him at one stage but I still can’t remember the names then it came to me”henry is my cousin he lives at 167 lots road that's my road” “I’ll get you some more blood, but I want to see you again tomorrow, maybe we need to use a little hypnosis see if I can’t help you into a dream state and help you remember everything I’ll take notes and discuss it all after “I looked at him nervously “sure thing doc whatever you think” ”my advice to you in the meantime is talk with alexander if things really are this bad, you need him behind you and seek out your cousin.im on the phone should you need me day or night Kirsten I care deeply for you and your welfare” he headed back to the kitchen this time he brought me another four units of blood “you may need these I see some hard times ahead but be brave whatever happens”. I thanked him, he took me into a warm embrace “see you tomorrow say 6pm” “I look forward to it” he released me from his hug.
The journey home was a difficult one; my head was all over the place. Indeed dream state that's certainly something different was it really nescesary.would I suddenly be introduced to my worst nightmare, was I ready for this shit.alexander was expecting me over two hours ago. I reached for my mobile phone flipped it open and pressed redial “Kirsten what’s wrong is everything ok”ahh just hearing his voice settled my paranoid state, straight away. “I’m ok baby just took a little longer than I thought”. He sighed as though relieved “thank god, I was thinking the worst” “what could possibly happen with a shrink of all things”. He laughed but the laugh was a false one even if he couldn't hear it, even though he tried to hide it anyway. “Where are you of to now “he asked gently????” I’m just popping back to the house”I said quickly”ill come to the house we can stay on the boat another night” “no its fine,ill be therewithin the hour I promise” “ok baby I love you ,ill put some wine on ice”.”love you too see you soon” I flipped the phone back down and chucked it back into my bag.as the cab drove up to my house I noticed 167 lots road and the lights were still on,I couldn't believe I had lived here for years and never realised I had family on my doorstep,I paid the cabbie and got him to wait outside.once more I opened the door and switched on the landing light and went about collecting my things.putting the remaining blood under lock and key in the underfloor safe filled with icepacks.since being with alexander safety has always been a precaution no matter how crazy it seems its all but very nescesary.
I gathered my things and walked back to the front door,opened it went out and locked the door.as I went out the gate I noticed the cab had gone”for godsake” I said to myself.i took out my phone and the bloody battery had died,I started walking down the same route me and alexander had taken earlier that day,my senses were somewhat going crazy.fear,need,lost,scared all at once,I knew I was being followed. I walked past the furniture shop from earlier,I turned to look in the window only to have my fears answered. To the right of me I saw a dark figure slip into a shop door out of sight,I turned to continue walking,as I did I caught the sight of the dark figure also stepping out at the same time,I walked a little faster and sure enough so did the figure behind me. they were very close behind me and they wanted me to be aware that they were.i slipped down a side road and out onto the embankment,I hopped down onto the river bank and ran the final bit to alexanders boat.
Alexander was standing on the deck waiting for me within a blink of an eye he was next to me”Kirsten whats wrong”he took me in his arms”ive been followed from the house”.i said gasping for breath”get onto the boat,lock ths bolt on the bedroom door,ill knock our secret knock”and next thing I knew he was running at a very fast pace,as I stepped onto the boat boris was by my side within seconds”are you ok Kirsten did they do or say anything at all” “no boris I was scared I ran for my life”my damn battery and that bloody taxi something must have happened,he always waits for me no matter what.boris walked me through what must have been the galley and of to the side another door and into a large bedroom with walk in closets.it was quite something he closed the door behind him”now lock it Kirsten”. I did it straight away.i was all alone I tried to picture the dark figure.i couldn't tell if it were male or female,but right now I didn't care,I just wanted to be enclosed in alexanders arms,safe.
What did whoever it was want with me.i layed down on the double bed listening for any sign of trouble.i pushed my hearing out as far as I could,and heard the captain and boris talking.”what do you think he wanted.”I wasn't to familiar on the accent,so that must have been the captain.”well what do you think he wants,what hes always wanted”boris said”will sir catch up with him do you think”the captain replied.”I'm not sure,its been a long time since I last saw him,who knows whats been happening with him since then.all I know is alexander has some unfinished business with him”.
“sir sir you ok,did you,oh god your hurt”alexander was back,oh my god hes been hurt,who is this man.my mind was going crazy had alexander been keeping something from me.”is Kirsten ok,shes not been hurt or anything,boris did you check” “yes sir I checked,shes fine a little shaken.i really think now is the time to talk to her””no I cant risk losing her again,we just started a life together,she would never understand”.i unlocked the door and walked to the captains quarters”understand what”I said “its nothing Kirsten”alexanders eyes were alarmed”nothing you say and yet I was followed and you know who by”. Boris and the captain looked at each other,alexander looked at them both”you were talking about this when I was gone,knowing she would hear you”.”hold on how do you know I would hear them”
“Kirsten I know to much for reasons I cant explain right know,we need to get away from here and then we will talk ok” he looked at the captain”you know the co,ordinates take us there now”,”yes sir,if my calculations are right we should be there at about 8.30pm tomorrow night” “I don't care just get Kirsten away from here now”. He walked off”boris get us some drinks and hot water,towels oh and some disinfectant please” “yes of course sir”.
I just sat on a chair feeling bewildered,I stood up and walked of to the decking.i stood at the very eedge,and suddenly I saw the dark figure again he was standing next to a phonebox ,he pulled back his hood to reveal a beautiful head of blonde hir,he was infact very attractive,but what did this man want with me.he smiled at me it was the most affectionate smile and then he mouthed my name what the hell who was this man and how did he know my name my thought were cut short by alexander ,come away from there don’t look at him just come in till we are away from here please” “why he look harmless enough”.i looked back to find that he had disappeared.
“ok I'm coming now but I want answers”he looked so worried as I walked towards him ,he put out his hand I pushed it. ”answers first alexander” he smiled, but I could still see the growing concern once inside we sat in the galley where an aray of cheeses and crackers ,fruit ,drinks had been laid out for us, he took me over to the lounging seat,he sat me
