Chapter Eight:

My eyes snap open, the sound of my bedroom door opening wakes me up. Closing my eyes trying to persuade the person that I'm still asleep. Not wanting to deal with the day, I lie there quite on the bed.

"I know you're awake." A deep voice says from the foot of the bed, slowly my eyelids peel open to find Marcus standing with his arms crossed. Moving away from him, my back touched the head of the bed. Marcus and I stare at each other, he puts his hands up showing me that he's not going to do anything. Hesitantly he sits on the side of the bed, putting my knees up to my chest my eyebrows knit together. What's he doing here? If he's not going to harm me or anything, then why is he here?

"Jordan told me that you know we're vampires, correct?" He asks me, nodding my head to answer his question. Marcus gives me a small smile.

"You might have a lot of questions. I know I would, so I'm here to answer them." He states with a grin, knowing more about them would be a good thing. Might as well, since I do have a lot of questions.

"Sun?" My voice questions Marcus, he holds up a hand to show me a large ring on his finger. It's a royal blue color with initials on it, the rings looks very old so it must of been passed down in his family. It's very large and thick for a ring.

"This bad boy helps me not turn into ashes." He says with a grin, playing with the ring he puts his hand back down onto the comforter of the bed.

"Mirror?" I ask, knowing if vampires look in the mirror they won't see themselves. Marcus chuckles as he taps his fingers on the bed.

"Myth." He answers, nodding my head I try to think of another. Vampires can't be around holy water, well that's what I've heard. Neither can they be around crosses for an odd reason.

"Holy water?" I question while wrapping my arms around my legs. Dust particles float around Marcus as sunlight glows in my room.

"Drinkable, surprisingly. All that stuff doesn't effect us." He declared, pondering about what to ask nothing comes to mind. Marcus raises an eyebrow as his fingers are tapping faster on the bed. Reaching over, I grab his hands they're a very leathery texture and bony. Marcus seems like he has a good heart even though he does evil things. Marcus's hands are also very cold, looking closely as his hand, his thick dark eyebrows knit together very perplexed on what I'm doing. Gently laying his large hand onto the sheet of the bed, I give him a small genuine smile. Marcus returns the nice gesture as he leaves my room. As the door shuts a deep breathe comes from lips. Strolling towards the closet, a comfortable hoodie and sweatpants stick out. Changing into the soft fabric clothes, a smile is on my face. Rolling the sleeves up on the comfortable crop top hoodie my tattoo sticks out.

I usually cover it up but maybe it's time to show the ink off. The tattoo is a lion with flowers underneath it, my father told me I have a heart of a lion. The lion has always been a symbol in my life, to be brave and to be different. For the flowers, my mothers a gardner at heart so she would show her love to the family by planting flowers. Then when they grow to their full length she gives them to us as a present. That's another way she shows love, by giving. Nature and plants has always been a big thing in our family.

After I'm done with the morning routine, my stomach growls ready to eat. I'm yearning for some breakfast, walking downstairs nothing is out of the ordinary. Although I can't find Dale or Jordan, where can they be? Not that I care it's just I'm a nosy person. Making myself some eggs, the pan sizzles as the egg is poured onto it. Grabbing a water bottle, I take a few sips to see Jacob standing directly behind me. Choking on my water, he stares at me with an eyebrows raised while I cough trying to breathe.

"Jacob! You imbecile vampire! Don't startle me like that." I exclaim while slapping his arm, he has a mischievous smirk while his bright green eyes stare at me. Taking another sip of my water he just shakes his head. Rolling my eyes, while putting the now fried egg onto a plate. The heated pan hisses under the touch of cold water, soon the sound stops. Setting the plate down on the wooden table Jacob watches me. Sitting down on the dinning room chair, an eyebrow is raised as Jacob and I stare at each other. If he's just going to stand there, I should ask him a important question.

"When can I see my brother? He needs me, as I need him." My voice is shaky, stress slowly builds up inside of me. Taking deep breathes I try to not to freak myself out. Jacob sighs while sitting besides me, he leans back in the chair.

"I sent Dale and Jordan to your house earlier this morning. They'll be back in a few to give an update on how he is. Tonight a party is going on, I need you to acquire something for me." He says, taking a bite of the fried egg, the eyebrow is raised again.

"I'm not going to be doing this for free." Like I've said before I'm not going to do something without a price. He shook his head while a smile tugged on his lips. His leg bopped up and down underneath the wooden table.

"You're one of those, huh?" He asks, a smirk appears on my face. We both stare at each other.

"I try," I state. Jacob shakes his head more a deep chuckle escapes his plumps lips. Tilting my head to the side waiting for his answer.

"In return, you'll get some answers." He says, moving his hands to exaggerate. Knitting my eyebrows together, swallowing the last bit of the food.

"The answers on why you're doing this and more?" Questioning him, Jacob nods his head. A smile climbing it's way onto my face.

"Guess what Jacob, you've got yourself a deal." The smile turned into a smirk, ready to know what Jacob will tell me. I'm ready to get what he needs, so I'll know how to get out of this.
