The Last Of The Rings Read online

  “It’s ok Nessa, you don’t have to pretend with me, I’m your family and I’m here for you. Please don’t shut me out, we will get through this, and I’m here for you” she comforted her.

  They embraced and sat on the floor without uttering a word. In no time, sunlight streaked into the room. Nessa got up and headed to the room putting back her belongings in her bag. Trina followed and in no time, they were back on the road.

  Chapter 4

  When they were a few miles from the centre, the road stayed clear and there was nothing but trees and bushes surrounding them. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a figure jumped in the middle of the road from the sky.

  Nessa struggled to control the car and as she swerved away from the figure on the road, she headed off the road and into a tree.

  A few moments later, she opened her eyes to see nothing but smoke at the front of their car. She looked over at Trina and her head lay on the dash board unconscious. She lazily unbuckled her seatbelt and reached over to Trina.

  “Trish wake up” she said as she shook her.

  Trina opened her eyes slowly and couldn’t make out what had just happened.

  “Get up Trish, we need to get out of the car” Nessa urged as she pushed the door open.

  She headed over to Trina’s side and pulled it open. She unbuckled her seatbelt and carried her sister to the side of the road. Trina started coming around and she fully opened her eyes to see her sister’s concerned face looking over her as she caressed her hair.

  “What just happened?’ she asked as she sat up.

  “I have no idea, something just came out of nowhere and jumped onto the road, it’s like it came from the sky, did you see it” Nessa asked.

  “Yeah I did, but I thought I imagined it” Trina answered and she held on Nessa and stood to her feet.

  “I don’t like this Trish, something is watching us”

  “You think it’s the Reigns, I thought you said they couldn’t walk in daylight”

  “I know but, something did definitely wanted us to stop here” Nessa said as she struggled to listen for movement around them.

  The air went unusually silent again and all they could hear was the gas leaking from their crashed car. In no time, they felt movements around them. Suddenly, a human figure flew high above from the trees to settle in the middle of the road.

  He had a long black coat with gloves on both hands. Nessa knew it was a Reign. His hair was brushed back and held in a ponytail. His face was pale and sculpted in strong, roguish lines with just enough character to keep it from seeming too perfect.

  He carried an unconscious body on his shoulders and Nessa and Trina couldn’t make out who it was. The Reign started moving towards them and with each step he made towards them, more Reigns jumped high above from the trees and onto the road.

  Soon, there were more than they could count.

  “Stay behind me Trish” Nessa said as she pushed Trina behind her.

  “Once the big sister, always the big sister, hello Nessa” the Reign spoke raucously to reveal two huge fangs in his mouth.

  His lips were pink and his tongue blood-red. His eyes changed color from blue to green and his ears twitched when he smiled.

  Nessa had never seen or heard of him. She wondered how he knew her name and as much as his sight scared the hell out of her, she held her ground.

  When he got a few inches from where she stood, he stopped and threw the unconscious body in the middle of their distance.

  Nessa’s jaw almost dropped to the ground when she looked at the unconscious body. It was Thomas, the love of her life whom she’d left behind for his own protection. Anger rose icy-hot inside her and she fought hard to suppress it.

  His skin was pale and his eyes had dark circles.

  “Had he been turned?” Nessa wondered.

  Trina squeezed her hand and Nessa held her ground fighting not to rush to Thomas’s side.

  “Please tell me you haven’t turned him” she countered.

  “I believe this is the first time we are meeting since your parents decided to join the after-life” the vampire said with a cynical smile.

  “My name is Danton, and I have waited hundreds of years to meet you” he said ignoring her inquisitive statement about Thomas.

  “I heard you’ve hurt a few of my sons these past couple of days” he continued.

  That’s when Nessa knew he was the head of the Reign.

  “Well, a girl’s got to do what a girl’s got to do to protect herself right?” Nessa answered as she struggled to maintain a straight face.

  “Haha….. like mother like daughter” Danton mocked.

  “What do you know about my mother” Nessa asked curiously.

  “Well, I could tell you a lot about your mother and father if you gave me my rings back. They were good friends of mine and their death was such a shame don’t you agree?” Danton continued in his grave voice.

  “Far as I’m concerned, these rings belong to us, they were given to us by our parents and they never once mentioned that they were stolen. As a matter of fact they never mentioned anyone fitting your description having ownership towards them” Nessa said smugly.

  Danton laughed aloud and the other members of the Reign joined him.

  “You’ve got jokes, I see” Danton said as he looked back at his followers.

  He then held his hand up in signal for them to stop. His eyes turned red and he looked down at Thomas’s unconscious body. With the flick of his finger, Thomas body rose from the ground and hang in the air. He looked so helpless and with another flick of Danton’s finger, he opened his eyes and screamed in pain.

  He looked at Nessa and shouted her name.

  “Help me Nessa, help me” he cried.

  “Stop it please” Nessa begged as she rushed to Thomas and touched his face. His skin felt hot as fire and it was like his body was burning from his insides.

  “Oh, so now it’s please” Danton mocked.

  “What happened to the funny Nessa” he continued.

  “I’ll give you the damn ring but you have to stop hurting him” Nessa negotiated as she held Thomas and wiped the tears that streaked her face.

  Thomas body lowered to the ground and suddenly his pain disappeared. She hugged him tightly and kissed him on the forehead.

  “I’m so sorry honey, for everything” Nessa told Thomas then rose from the ground and faced Danton.

  “That’s just a tip of what I can do Nessa, I don’t play games and I hate jokes, the rings” Danton said as he stretched out his hands.

  When Nessa reached to remove her ring from her left hand with the other hand, she heard movements in the forest. With the use of her powers, she knew that no one else heard them and before she could make out what they were, huge spiders jumped from the forest onto the road.

  They spit some greyish substance on the Reign’s vampires and they burned and turned to dust. Everything happened so fast and before Nessa could contemplate what had just happened, one spider was looking over her with the hugest eyes she’d ever seen.

  They were huge and one spider’s size covered the entire road. Nessa was dumb-struck and she could do nothing but stare back at the overlooking spider. She knew this was the last of her existence. The rest of the spiders disappeared into the forest except this one that stood over them.

  In a split second, the spider moved back and shrank to turn into a human. Trina couldn’t believe her eyes.

  “Jack” she exclaimed.

  “Are you guys crazy to face the Reigns alone?” Jack asked with that familiar smile playing at his lips.

  “Follow me, you’re not safe here” he said as he started walking into the forest.

  Nessa knew if he wanted to kill them then they’d already be dead. Her only concern was Thomas, how she was going to explain everything to him and how bad she felt now that he was involved in what was going on in her vampire world.

  Chapter 5

  Deep in the middle of the forest, was a beautif
ul set-up of glass built apartments. It was like an estate on its own.

  “Welcome to Aranea world” Jack said.

  He took them to his residence and when they were settled, he explained about his kind. Jack came from shape shifters called Aranea. These were humans who could turn into huge spiders and spit liquid silver which was lethal to vampires.

  They’d been in existence for years and even though they had a peaceful pact with vampires, they knew about the Reigns and had joined forces with the Anti-Reigns to fight them since they knew their agenda and what they were planning to do. There was no way they’d let the Reigns dominate the mortal existence. He told them they could stay as long they needed to before they figured out their next move.

  Nessa and Thomas got a room to themselves and Trina took a separate one next to theirs.

  Sitting at the edge of the bed wondering what to say, Nessa looked at the floor, her mind wondering off to blankness. Her attention was suddenly brought to the present with Thomas’s hands on her shoulders.

  “Why didn’t you tell me about your kind Nessa, I thought we were better than this, do you have any idea how worried I was about you?” Thomas asked before giving her a chance to explain herself.

  “I wanted to protect you Thomas, I’m so sorry about everything” she said as she looked into his deep blue eyes.

  “Did they hurt you?” she inquired as the reached out to his face and stroke his cheek.

  “No they didn’t, all I can remember is I was headed to your place yesterday after work and some guys stopped me, I can’t remember anything else from then” he said as he tried to recall what had happened.

  “They must have erased your memory for what happened when they took you, you don’t feel anything unusual or any pain?” she asked as she looked over to his neck for any bite marks.

  “No, I feel ok” Thomas said.

  “So you are a vampire?” he continued.

  “Yes Thomas, I am a vampire by birth, so is Trina” she explained.

  “If you never want to see me again I’ll understand” she continued.

  Thomas reached his hand out to her and turned her face to him.

  “I told you I love you Nessa, and nothing will ever change that. I just wish you’d trusted me enough to let me in and tell me the truth without me having to find out like this” Thomas said as he looked into her gorgeous amber eyes.

  “I’m so sorry Thomas, I feel so stupid now and I can only hope that you’ll forgive me one day” she answered.

  Thomas leaned forward and kissed her lips gently.

  “Please never keep anything from me again” Thomas whispered.

  “I promise” Nessa said as she ran her hands through his hair and kissed him.

  He kissed her back passionately taking her bottom lip and alternating it with the other. He dipped his tongue inside her warm mouth and gently pushed her back on the bed. He had missed the smell of her beautiful hair and her soft silk skin, more to that, he’d missed how his dick felt inside her.

  His hand ran down to her waist and caressed her warm flat belly. She had on black skinny jeans that clung to her figure and a green jacket on top of her blue spaghetti top. He unbuttoned her jacket and pulled off her top as he kissed her passionately.

  Nessa moved back up on the bed and embraced him, curving her legs around his waist to feel his dick. Still not believing that he was there with her, she wrapped her hands around him and sucked his sweet tongue. His hands ran down to her chest and squeezed her huge tits.

  “I missed you Nessa”

  “My dick just wants to be inside you” he whispered as he unbuckled her bra.

  He pulled them off leaving her huge breasts bare and her nipples hard. He cupped both tits with his hands and pressed the nipples close together and sucked them hungrily. He’d missed their sweet taste.

  He undid her jeans’ buttons and pulled them off. She had no panties and her vagina called out to him, her pink folds showing her wetness.

  He spread her legs wide and went down to her wet pussy, licking and stroking her clit with his tongue. He sucked her again and again and Nessa twirled on the bed, her reaction only urging him to go on.

  She sat up and cupped Thomas’s face into her hands bringing it to hers. She kissed him passionately and rolled on top of him. He had on a pair of blue denim jeans and a brown shirt.

  She unbuttoned the shirt and threw it to the floor. Thomas cupped her tits and squeezed them as she worked on getting him naked. She pulled off his trousers and boxers and in no time he was naked, his huge dick already hard for her.

  She wet her palm and took his dick then stroke it with both hands. She then took it into her mouth and sucked him, nibbling the eyes between her teeth and tasting his juices. She massaged his balls and licked the lower sensitive side making him lose himself.

  “Fuck babe, you are so good at this” Thomas yelled as he closed his eyes.

  His entire body tingled with pleasure as he ran his hands through Nessa’s hair, holding her head in place as she devoured him. When he couldn’t handle the urge anymore he pulled her to him.

  Nessa parted her legs and Thomas rubbed her clit with his hard aching dick, placing it in position to enter her.

  Nessa pressed down closed her eyes, feeling him penetrate her to her furthest insides. She placed her hands on his shoulders for support and rode him. She twirled and rode him in an up and down motion until his entire shaft was inside her. Thomas closed his eyes and nibbled her nipples with his hands as she fucked him.

  He opened his eyes and looked up at Nessa, her eyes had changed to a burning red and two fangs peeked on both ends of her mouth. When she noticed he was looking at her, she looked away but Thomas reached for her face and turned her to him.

  “I want to see you, please babe” he said.

  Nessa continued to ride and fuck him until they both climaxed, all the time looking into each other’s eyes. She then collapsed in his arms and embraced him.

  “I love you too” she whispered into his ears.

  Thomas embraced her tightly and vowed never to leave her. Whatever the world had in store for them, they would face it together.
