for me.” I said.
“What she did out of love was risk your life and delayed your development which has resulted in your magic activating to its full potential anyway regardless of your wishes”.
I remained silent and waited for him to continue. He stood as the silent stretched out between us.
“I have commitment that I was unable to delay I will return after midnight whilst I’m here you will alter your sleep schedule to fit into mine. Raul is here to watch you, and accompany you. He is here for your protection.” with that he left leaving muscles regarding me with a half smile.
“What?” I asked as he looked at me.
“I have a feeling we are all going to be having a very interesting time with you Sarah,” he stated.
“Good way or bad way?”
“Oh I defiantly think it’s going to be both.” he answered. Smiling I signalled him towards the kitchen. “Drink, help you’re self” I said “got to make a call.”
“To whom?” he asked and the laughter left his face.
“My boyfriend.” I removed the phone from its cradle and dialled Adams number; I didn’t bother leaving the room as I thought that muscles would follow me anyway. On the fifth ring Adam answered.
“Hello”
“Hi Adam its Sarah” I reply.
“Hi love how are you feeling?” he asked but before I even had time to answer “that swine flu is really contagious isn’t it I think it best that you get well before we meet up again”
“I really need to speak to you “I said whilst rolling my eyes, muscles was drinking a can of cola that he had gotten out of the fridge.
“And we will “he continued still not letting me get a word in edge ways “but when your well, love you” at that Adam rang off. I set the phone down and turned to my bodyguard.
“Up for a road trip?” I ask.
“Where to”
“To dump my boyfriend” I inform him.
Raul burst into a roar of laughter “I told you this was going to be fun, and I always like to break things”
“I doubt we will be breaking anything other than his ego” I reply shortly. “Come on lets get this over with, I need get back for my training session with your boss”
Still smiling Raul led the way to a black Mercedes that had been parked in the drive way, he walked to the passenger side and held the door for me pushing it shut once I was settled. He walked around to the drivers side got in and started the engine.
“Where to?” he asked. I gave him the address whish was about a ten minute drive away, the trip was rather enjoyable 80s music was playing softly through the radio and Raul never bothered me with small talk we drove in silence and it gave me the chance to think about what I was going to say to my nearly dumped boyfriend.
We pulled up to Adams block of flats. Raul had turned off the engine, he jumped out of the drivers side and came round to my side and opened the door for me. I commented about him be a gentleman which he smiled at but offered no comment, I took a breath then fished around in my handbag for the key. Adam gave me the key on our second anniversary but I had never used it as we always meet in public and then went back to mine. Adam was on the second floor and Raul and I walked up the stair case got to his front door I put the key in the lock and turned the key Raul pushed past me and did I quick look around the entrance hall to Adam’s flat before allowing me to enter. Adams place was very minimalist white walls, silver and glass furniture and a flat screen TV, I mean it had as much personality as him which lets face it amounted to none. I stood in the door way and took a breath ready to call Adams name when I heard strange groaning noises coming from the bedroom. I looked at Raul who in turn looked at me, by silent agreement we approached the bed room, out of what appeared like thin air Raul pulled a huge sword from his back. My eyes widened and I mouthed “bloody hell” at him, holding his sword ready and flashing me a small half smile and a small shrug of his shoulder, raul pushed the bedroom door open.
I really don’t know how to explain to you what we saw, but basically Adam was lay on his back in the centre of his king-size bed with a redheaded women on his right and a dark headed women on his left. All three were naked and quiet clearly we had interrupted them. I stood in shock unable to move or say anything I mean its not as if I was jealous because I was not its just that it was not what I was expected when I opened that door. Raul stood behind me and coughed load enough to disturb Adam and his two fellow bed partners. Adam had now noticed us as we stood in his bedroom doorway, I must say that the look on his face was comical it went from rapture to puzzlement to horror then shame. His bed mates didn’t appear to look a bit fazed by some strange women and 6ft sword welding muscles man they looked only to happy to continue in the activity. Adam had managed to sit him self up and push his not so classy company off himself.
“Sarah honey I was not expecting you” he stated.
“Clearly”
“I thought you were ill and confined to the house with that swine flu” his voice had started to rise in tone and volume.
“I lied” was all I replied completely emotionless.
“Well would you like to tell me why” he asked. I could see clearly that he was annoyed with me but for what, interrupting his orgy or lying to him.
“I don’t think that’s really the issue Adam do you I mean at the end of the day I’ve come round to visit my boyfriend who I’ve caught fucking to bloody prostitutes for all I know” I screamed the last two words at him I was seriously getting pissed off, and the fact that the two women never reacted to my accusation and Adam never denied it only proved that I was correct in my thinking.
“Who’s he?” I heard Adam ask a note of surprise in his voice, also a little accusingly while looking Raul up and down assessing him.
“His my “I turned to Raul giving him a wink before facing Adam again “my bodyguard who if I ask him very nicely will I’m sure willing beat up a three timing selfish bastard like you”
“Now Sarah” he began as Raul flexed his sword arm making Adam quietens immediately. I liked seeing the fear in his eyes but to be honest at this point all I really wanted to do was go home eat a ton of chocolate and cry. I the thing is I wasn’t upset because I wanted Adam I was upset because I thought he wanted me and I trusted him.
“Just tell me why Adam?” I asked sighing heavily. Adam just looked at me and to be honest I thought he wasn’t going to answer me until,
“Answer her” Raul growled at him.
“you were great but you were boring you just didn’t do it for me, I needed a bit of excitement especially in the bedroom department you just wouldn’t have sex with me and I have needs.” he held his hands open in attempt to get my understanding. I turned my back to him and stepped back through the door way.
“I came today to finish with you thanks for saving me the bother.” with that last comment I left running down the stairs back towards Rauls black Mercedes, with Raul close behind me. I threw myself into the car, slamming the door to the outside world close I quietly sobbed into my hands. Raul sat beside me a remained silent the whole time until I had my self back under control.
“Thanks” I say.
“No problem,” he starts the car and pulls into the traffic “home now” he adds.
We remain silent for the whole of the drive back, once back home we enter the house and I head straight towards the stairs Raul hand touches my shoulder stopping me in my tracks. I turn towards him curiously
“He was cruel and no one deserves that Sarah.” I offer him a small sad smile and take the first two steps before his voice stops me again. “Everything happens for a reason”
“I know” with that I went and lay on my bed “but I just don’t believe it” I whispered to myself.


Chapter 4

I didn’t stay in my room long I’m not one for dwelling on things, so an hour after arriving home I was sat in the kitchen cup of coffee in hand Raul propping up the wall and retelling the whole unpleasant tale of Adams extra curriculum activities to a hysterical with laughter vampire aunt. To be honest to see my aunt doubled up with laughter cheered me up and made me chuckle along side with her, Raul laughed right along with us.
“Sarah that is the funniest thing I’ve heard in the last 150 years, I would never have thought of him as capable of even having sex let alone two at the same time” Kath said followed by another round of laughter.
“I went of there to brake up with him anyway at least this way I have nothing to feel bad about.” I glanced up at the clock only 10 minutes till my magical vampire teacher graces me with his presence.
“He wasn’t right for you love” my aunt stated all laughter gone from her voice. “Supernatural beings like vampires, werewolves, dragons, and mages
