Welcome back, readers! I've been getting so much positive feedback lately it's unbelievable!
And guess what? Raven has an admirer. 😏 And no, I'm not talking about Lillian... 🙄 I'm talking about a girl called teeharie
*whispers* I'm pretty sure she's found her own Edward Cullen. 😂
Sorry, Lily! He's taken. 😆
Ah, I'm just messing with ya girl.
Enjoy the chapter guys. ❤ I have a feeling you will all kill me at the end...

Raven's Call

"HOLY CROW!" I scream, putting my hands over my mouth. "Is this some sort of sick twisted joke?"

I lean into the mirror, trying to get a better look at what's on my neck.

It looks like two small puncture marks, exactly one centimetre apart from one another.

I bet this was Ellie! Shes always dome pranks like this. . . Ugh!

I can tell you at almost every sleepover we've had, she's either scared the devil inside of me or completely killed it.

I tried using my spit to wipe it off but it didn't work. Then I tried getting a wet cloth to scrub it but that didn't work either.

I eventually gave up. I was going to approach Ellie with struck words before school started.

For now, I put a scarf around my neck and headed to school, deciding to stop at my favourite place to eat; The Yin and Yang Diner.

As I open the door, mini wind chimes sound above me and I smile, remembering all the delicious times I've had here.

"Ahh, Lillian! I had a feeling I'd see you this morning," An old jolly voice calls from across the room. "I made your favourite!"

I look over to see the owner, Mr Luo, waving from the counter.

I wave back, giving him my best smile.

All sorts of delicious, mouthwatering smells invade my nose and I inhale, jumping with joy.

Mr Luo slowly walks towards me, holding my favourite treat.

Oh god, I'm going to get fat if I keep eating these...

"It's fresh," He grins. "Right out of the fridge."

"Oh, my gosh, Lu. You didn't," I say, giving him a grateful look.

"I know school can be stressful so I wanted to make it a little more....sweeter," He replies, his Chinese accent rolling off his tongue.

He holds it out to me, insisting I take it.

"That's so generous. Thank you! But I'm blaming you if I get fat."

He laughs and I lick my lips, taking the creamy chocolate profiterole from his hands.

I plop it in my mouth and sigh. The chocolate melts around my tongue and I instantly feel in heaven.

What does he put in these things? Drugs? Cause I'm already addicted to these things.

"Lu, that's- ugh. There's just no way to describe how delicious that tastes."

He bows and grins his huge smile.

"Thank you, Miss Lillian."

I turn my wrist over to see my watch. 15 minutes to walk to school... Great.

"I better get going. An assignment is due today and I can't be late," I say, already turning around to walk out the door.

"Bye, Miss!" Luo yells, and I mentally laugh. He's too sweet for his own good.

I take a short route to school, deciding that it was the quickest and smartest way to get to school early.

I knew I shouldn't have stopped for that cream puff. Stupid tempting little vanilla pastry.

I turn into an alleyway and walk past multiple rats and mice, all eating from plastic bags.

Gross.

I pick up my pace, wanting to put as much space between those vermin as possible.

Suddenly, marble-cold hands grab my shoulders and I am forced onto the brick wall beside me.

"Woah, not so fast pretty lady. What's the rush?"

My breath catches in my throat as I realise what a stupid mistake I've made.

How dumb can I be to think I could walk down this alleyway without getting into some form of trouble?

Dammit, Lily. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

"You going to answer or what?" The voice calls bitterly.

I felt all colour drain from my face as I look into the stranger's eyes.

He looked at me, his black eyes drilling into mine. I couldn't help but think - I'd never seen such dark eyes with so much light in them.

I'm rigid, frozen, rooted to the spot. Not that I could move anyway...

The males arms were on either side of my head and his body was pinned to mine, stopping me from moving at all.

"W-what do you want?" I ask, weakly. My voice was shaken up but I couldn't help it. I was scared.

"I've got money. Do you want money?" I ask, moving to get my wallet from my school bag.

He laughs, catching me off guard.

Is he laughing?

"No, no. I don't want your money, little one. I want something far more valuable."

A shiver runs down my spine as he reaches to stroke my neck.

My instincts tell me what he meant by that was not good. Not good at all.

Images flash in my mind. News reporters telling the world about how hundreds of women are get abused and sexually harassed every month.

I suddenly realise what this man could possibly want. Something males prey on young girls for...

No...

"No! Back off!" I shoot, adrenaline finally kicking in.

I welcomed it, for it could be the only thing that will give me the strength to fight this devil off.

"Beautiful, you're not going anywhere. You're going to be a good girl for me, aren't you?"

I instantly spit in his face, earning me a slap across the face.

I cry out, feeling tears cool down my burning cheek.

"What do you want?" I whisper, struggling from his hold.

He smirks at me when I again, make contact with his dark, malevolent eyes.

"I want a relationship I can finally sink my teeth into."

The fuck?
