Blood Queen

(Andy’s P.O.V.)

It’s amazing how fast your entire world can change. Like you live in one situation for years and you build yourself and your habits around this one way of life. Then you wake up one day to find that everything has somehow completely changed and will never be the same again. It’s not necessarily such an awful thing, but it makes everything so chaotic and difficult to plan. In fact, the only thing I’m still sure of is that I’m not sure where we go from here. How do I protect her from Viktor now? Where will she be safest? Where does this leave us? She steps toward me hesitantly

“I have to go back.” My chair tips over sideways as I jump up. I ignore it.

“What?!? God no. You can’t go back there!” I blurt, shocked. Her eyes narrow a bit and she shifts her weight back to her right leg.

“It’s not your decision to make.”

I am even more taken aback by the bite of steel in her voice. I know she’s strong enough to survive living with her father. But that doesn’t mean I’m prepared to allow the chance of him hurting her again.

“I just don’t get it. He’s an alcoholic. He hurt you, Iris. And now you want to go back?” She looks me dead in the eye, drawing in a long, slow breath.

“I didn’t put up with all of this for nothing. There’s only a month until graduation. I….” Her expression softens again. “I just want to finish school. And then… Then I never want to see any of them again. Ever.” Her voice breaks on the last word but she tries to hide it.

I resist the urge to take out my frustration by tugging on my wild black hair. Still… It’s not like I could actually say no. The idea of her being back in that house, back with him, makes me want to snap his neck; But she’s right. I don’t like it but I won’t stop her.

“Are you sure?” I ask her one more time, hoping she will answer more favorably this time. However, she only nods. I sigh, something I’ve been doing a lot lately.

“Alright.” She puts her hands over her face in relief, but I cut her off before she can say anything. “But you can’t stop me from checking in on you. Now that you’ve found out, I don’t have to stay away.” I gently pull her hands away from her face so I can look her in the eye. “There’s no way in hell I’m letting this happen again.”

Notes

I'm sooooo sorry guys. I know how unacceptably long it has been since I've updated. My only expination is a combination of school starting and me being horribly sick. In fact, I'm still sick, which is why this chapter is not up to my usual standards. Anyways, Thank you lovely people for reading, I hope I can start writing some better chapters soon.

Question of the day: What's your favorite chick flick? (don't lie, we all have one :) )

Until next chapter <3
