My Hunted Mate

Corinna

Muttering 'excuse me' repeatedly, I continue to have to push my way through the crowds upon crowds of vampires surrounding me until I reach the living room.

The stench of blood overtakes my senses as soon as I step into the room, I take in everything around me and my eyes go wide. Vampires are laughing and talking amongst themselves with wine glasses full to the brim with blood, others are refilling their glasses from large punch bowls or the what is supposed to be a chocolate foundation but instead of chocolate blood flows from it.

But the worst part wasn't any of that, it was the fact that some in the corner of the room where the pool table sits, a group of fifteen or more vampires were feeding on and ripping apart humans.

At their feet lay a pile of bodies, freshly drained bodies with their now soulless eyes staring out at the crowds. There was some still alive, but if they weren't being fed on, they were shackled and standing near by to the group with their heads down.

My eyes land on a young girl who couldn't have been any older than seventeen, her light brown hair is matted with blood and dirt, her terrified hazel eyes stay glued to the floor with tears rapidly falling from them, her pale skin is also covered in blood, dirt , unhealed bite marks and some scars from old bite marks.

A loud growl escapes my chest, I march across the room to them, they now watch me with unimpressed looks on their faces instead of feeding on the humans in their hold.

" Let them go. " I demand.

The group of vampires in front of me instantly start to howl with laughter, as if I'd just told them the funniest joke known to man. " How about you go to your kennel mutt. " One of the men tells me.

" If you don't let them go, I will rip you all apart. " I threaten, choosing to ignore the foolish insult.
