No escape - Anne Louise Guest (scary books to read TXT) 📗

felt off. The two men at this had rejoined us and Peter was pouring the champagne. When I noticed someone at the bar, no it couldn’t have been Alex I thought. I stood and excused myself heading in the direction I was blocked by another woman in a black cat suit who nearly fell in a heap right in front of me I helped steady her and when I looked back at the bar he had gone or I had imagined it.
I returned to the table and had three sets of eyes looking at me “my mistake” I told them and rejoined the group. In general the evening was pleasant Andrew and Peter was both excellent company but the night was drawing to a close and I was trying to dismiss Peter with out causing offence, adding another man to my life was asking for trouble which I was in enough anyway especially when I got home. Then before I could formulate an escape Andrew and Lilly took there leave, with waves and kisses I remained silent as good byes were given and cast daggers at my not so best friend who had decided to ignore me.
Great I thought “another drink” Peter asked me.
I put my best fake smile on and declined peter looked a little disappointed but didn’t push the issue.
“I have just got to pass on my regards to the owner of the club then I’ll take you home” he said standing “wait would you like to meet him?” he added. No not really I thought but agreed not wanting to sit in the bar alone. Nodding my head I stood, Peter casually took my hand in his; I wanted to rip my hand out of his but left it there so not to cause a scene. His touch had made my skin crawl, then the penny had sunk in he was a vampire that was why I was getting strange vibes from him. I started to pull my hand away but he tightened his grip he looked back at me and the look of pure menace stopped my pulling.
“Come quietly or I will drag you and it won’t be pleasant. Your choice!” he hissed.
I chose and carried on walking. We went further in to the club and up to the VIP area. The bouncer nodded to Peter as we walked through.
“Oh shit” I exclaimed as I looked around this section was defiantly VIP but only if you’re a vampire. The whole level was decorated in blood red. Soft furnishing scattered everywhere from cushions, sofas even beds. Everywhere I looked there where naked men and women performing sexual acts to each other and a lot of biting as well. We entered and peter had to drag me the first few steps as I was unable to move through shock and a tiny bit of fascination. We walked down the centre of this giant orgy, I really did try to keep my eyes in front of me but every now and then a couple or group would catch my interest some even beckoned me to join in with them.
Half way through to my right was a women bent over the back of a chair and had her skirt around her waist, with a man entering her from behind the women had got bites and blood all over her neck but seamed to be enjoying herself. The man who was impaling her on to his very impressive penis looked me straight in the eye and smiled forcing me to look away. Peter must have watched me and laughed at my discomfort. He stopped our progress and stood in front of me, I turned my head away so not to have to look at him. Groans and moans filled the room, the smell of sex and sweat filled my senses and happy naked people filled my vision. It was too much to bare a tear leaked from my eye and ran down my cheek. Peter stood there laughing at me. He lifted his hand a wiped the tear tracing it down my check to my collar and down between my breasts. I lost it at that point and smacked his hand away,
“Bitch” he then back handed me and knocked me to the floor. “When his finished with you little virgin your mine” he dragged me up a practically ran me the remainder of the way to the last set of doors. The two huge vampires that stood there open the door to admit us. I walked in and Peter pushed me to my knees my face stung and I could feel blood dripping where my skin had split. There was a big wooden oak desk with a chair facing away from us.
“Lord she’s here as you requested” Peter said aiming it towards the stranger sat in the chair. I kept my head down not wanting to draw any attention to myself unwilling to look my captures in the face.
“How have you been sis” the stranger said. I snapped my head up as the stranger had turned to face me. I came eye to eye with my brother Alex. “Nice to see you again it’s been a while.”
I was speechless not one word would come from my lips. “That’s not like you Sarah I’m sure you got something to say about all this” he added when I remained silent.
He came from around the desk and knelt in front of me taking my chin to get a better look at my now bruising face. He knelt forward and licked the blood from my face and looked back at me to see my reaction would be.
“Vampire” I whispered. He nodded slowly to let me know I was correct. He looked at my face and raised an eyebrow in a silent question like he used to do. My gaze flicked towards Peter and back quickly Alex understood as he always had as we were children.
“You struck my sister and I don’t remember giving you permission to do so” Alex said a deadly silky voice.
“She was being difficult lord” Peter replied a slight tremor now had crept in his voice. Alex had now stood and had begun circling him.
“I expect exact obedience” with that Alex struck Peter in the chest. I heard a horrid cracking and the wet slurping sound followed by a heavy thud. When I looked Peter was on the floor with a huge whole in his chest. Alex stood with what must be his heart in his hand blood up to his elbow. And blood splattered everywhere and over me. Alex looked down at me gave one final look at what he held in his hand before throwing it to the floor and sitting back behind his huge desk. He took a handful of tissue out of a box on his desk and wiped most of the blood off his hands.
“Come sit” Alex indicated the chair opposite him. I stood on very shaky legs, holding on to the chair and sitting down in it to face my brother. “Still speechless Sar” he asked as he threw the blooded tissues on to his desk.
I took the time to look around my brother’s office. It was full of expensive art and collectables but surprising tasteful.
“I can see your sense of style at least has improved” I said this caused my brother to roar with laughter.
“Oh how I’ve missed you” he said real affection evident for the first time.
“Where” I was going to say where the hell have you been until Alex cut me off.
“We have not got time for all this family reunion bullshit” he said as the hurt of his words slammed into me tears formed in my eyes ready to flow free.
“I am offering you a choice, I am willing to let you join me, your magic is a valuable asset even more so now that its active.” he stated.
“How did you know?”
“Who do you think arranged for your attack to activate it” he said pride laced his voice.
“I could have been killed you idiot” I shouted back, raising my self out of the chair.
“No you would not have been, sit down and shut up” the deadly edge had returned to his tone, so I did what he told me to do and sat down swallowing my next insult that was on the tip of my tongue.
“So what happens if I refuse?” I asked filling the silence when he didn’t speak for a moment.
“You will be completely drained of your essence and your magic will be transferred to me” no feeling was shown as he stated my second choice.
“I would be easier if you weren’t the one I needed, but you was my family I thought you deserved a choice”
“What would you have me do” I asked my heart breaking at this making it clearer that this isn’t the brother I remember.
He stood up slowly leaning over the desk to look me dead in the eye “ANYTHING I FUCKING WANT YOU TO DO!!!” he roared at me. He sat back down before he continued “there’s an annoying master vampire that needs to die in order for me to take over London’s coven. I believe you have met the Joshua Palmer.”
I remained silent, thinking to myself now I know why Joshua was involved. I looked up at my brother and saw a smug smile across his face. The phone on his desk rang and Alex answered it. I couldn’t hear what the person on the other end of the phone said but Alex’s answer was a yes.
“Your rescue party have arrived” he said replacing the receiver. “you have a week where I will take no action against you as long as you keep your mouth shut and don’t tell that bitch you call aunt or Mr Palmer about what we have discussed tonight. If you do I will act accordingly” he stated.
“What happens if I refuse your offer” I asked him.
“You will die and so will Kath and so will Lilly and I‘ll end up getting what I want anyway” he answered. He stepped away from the desk and placed his hand on a picture opening a door that had cleverly been incorporated in
