Rejected By My Mate

“It’s weird...” Tristan mumbled while looking at the deer.

“What’s weird?” I asked, eyebrows furrowed.

“The deer has no blood,” he uttered.

“What?” Anna let out, then stood up and walked closer to Tristan. Anna gasped when she saw the deer. I have to think of a quick explanation.

Yvette also looked at the deer closer, “Look, there’s a bite on the deer’s neck!” Yvette said with eyes widened. Then they look at us questioningly.

“Oh, we haven’t noticed it. We were hungry, so we didn’t look closely. It didn’t smell bad, so we thought someone killed it recently.” I said calmly and shrugged. They don’t have to know that I did it.

“It looks like they sucked all the deer’s blood,” they mumbled and shivered. I can hear their heartbeats becoming irregular. It scared them.

I caught Layla taking glances at me and grinned secretly. She knew I did that. “Do you still want to eat it?” Tristan asked me. I nodded, even though I am still full right now because I sucked all the deer’s blood. But Layla is starving. She hasn’t eaten for almost 3 days in a row because of me.

“I’m starving. We haven’t eaten for days. I think the deer’s meat is good.” Layla said. Tristan sighed and nodded. Then I continued grilling the meat. When we already cooked a few slices of meat, Layla and I devoured it. The group just watched us and didn’t eat with us. I just shrugged my shoulders.

After we ate and talked, the group packed their things because it's time for them to go back home and we tagged along. We walked for 20 minutes before reaching the entrance of the forest. Then I saw the truck beside the small rocky road.

“That’s your truck?” Layla asked.

“Yep!” they mumbled.

Then Yvette and Anna rummage through their bags and take something out. Before they let us into the truck, Yvette and Anna handed us their extra clothes. We changed at the back of the car while the boys looked away. Yvette and Anna were hiding us while we changed and their backs facing us.

“We’re done!” I mumbled and smiled.
