The fear in my heart at the moment couldn't be compared to anything. In essence, the dream that night was real and that man? that man is a bloodsucker?!
I glanced at my adoptive parents, before I could say another word, Ella walked to me with tears in her eyes.
"Sister, please do this for me. I don't want to die. I know it's my fault, it's my fault for falling sick with such a rare disease and losing my purity before I became 18. Claire, do you want me to die? Remember how my parents saved you when you had cancer, do you want to repay us by getting us killed?!"
Though my sister's voice came out meekly but the sneer in her eyes put her out, it showed me how devious she is. Of course, the Eleanor family are selfish, selfless and even if they are rich, they wouldn't spend their money on things that aren't profitable to them.
"Okay." I replied casually after removing from hand from Ella's. She ran to my adoptive parents and hugged them tightly, a smile applied on their faces and they looked at me with a rather pleasurable eye.
"Thank you for this you have done for us" Father pronounced.
Although I am not pleased with this but without the Eleanor family, I would have been dead. Giving the fact that I was sick with cancer when I was a child, isn't it fair if I replace my life with Ella's now.
I know that man isn't human, he drinks blood, he even drank my blood which is rather disgusting but it's okay. I guess I've been given an ill fate since birth, giving that my parents also left me.
I left my adoptive parents' house for school in the same exclusive car. My life had suddenly changed in a day, I have a husband now and that husband is a synonym for a beast.
My thought was cut short when the car came to a halt, the driver without looking at me uttered; "Ma'am we've arrived "
"Huh?" I propped my head then nodded. With this, I climbed down the car and headed to class, covering my face in order not to be recognized.
Unfortunately, I was discovered as one of the gossip girls yelled; "Isn't that Claire Eleanor, she is so shameless, she came out of a luxurious car. I bet she has gone to sell her body to a rich man"
Another gossip girl sneered and looked at me with disgust. Avoiding the consistent sneering, I walked to my locker and picked my book for the next class.
Just then, Brandon Fox suddenly appeared in my face. His handsome face had turned rough, his eyes were reddened and he stared at me with disgust.
I feel his face on my shoulder rather than my face, he whizzed before overshadowing me with his big body.
"What is that?!" He yelled gesturing to my shoulder.
Because my uniform short is white and translucent, you can easily see the hickey if you stare at it well.
"Bran...Brandon?" I call slowly, my eyes were now dilated as Brandon stared at me with his harsh face.
"Why do you have a hickey on your shoulder?! Didn't you tell me to hold on, you told me you're still pure and I shouldn't rush things but now, you have a hickey on your shoulder. Tsk... tsk..." He sneered then let me go.
His face turned pale and it looked like he has been hurt.
Brandon Fox is the school's popular rich, cute, and playboy. Brandon suddenly took interest in me, saying I was innocent which was indeed correct.
Although Brandon can't abstain from playing with girls, he did it for me. When I told Brandon to take it slow with him, he relinquished to my request and I was happy.
However, I haven't told him about my burning feelings yet, I wanted to be sure but now, I can't do that anymore because I am married.
"Brandon.." I called and tried to touch him but he jerked my hands off and looked at me with hatred.
"You told me you're innocent, I listened to each of your deceitful words, waving off the rumors but it turns out it is all true. I changed for you. I changed all of my plans for you. I wanted to be a better person for you." Brandon won't with reddened eyes, he took his steps towards me.
I didn't care about the student who had gathered to watch us, I was more concerned about Brandon's feelings.
As Brandon raised his hands to touch me, a figure suddenly stood between us. I recognize this figure to be my sister, tears were in her eyes and she looked delicate as usual.
"Please hit me instead, I am the one at fault. My sister became a slut like this because I didn't caution her well. Even If I warned her every day, I didn't do it enough. Brandon hit me instead of her" Ella cried hypocritically. I never knew Ella was this phony. To others, it seemed like she was taking my side but to me, I knew she's being hypocritical.
No one will deny that Ella had always had a crush on Brandon Fox but Bradon waved her off and always took my side. Right now, with the way she's acting, Bradon would definitely choose her.
Speaking of Brandon, he looked at Ella briskly then answered with his hands gradually returning to his side. Although I know Brandon would never hit me, Ella was just being devious.
"You.." He pointed at Ella, she looked up at him gracefully while I looked like the bad guy.
"You're my girlfriend from now on!" He pronounced it like an order.
