and try to drink some more vodka, but the bottle was empty. “Oh great. You happy Mom.” I groan and close my eyes. I would keep drifting off to sleep. I open my eyes and see someone walking toward me. I smile. “Mom.” Next thing I know, I was asleep.

***************************************

 

I woke up in bed and had a huge migraine.  I look around. At first everything was blurry, until everything was clear. I was in Drake’s room. I sat up quickly, but I became dizzy.

“Be careful. You can make yourself sick.” Drake says as he came into the room. I put my hand on my head as I sat back to the head board. Drake came over and hand me a glass of water and aspirin. I took it and drank down the water.

“What time is it?” I asked as I gave him back the cup

“4:14 am” Drake sat on the end of the bed.

“How long has I been out?”

“For 3 hours”

“The masquerade over?”

“Yep. Everyone is home. I found you outside passed out. You drank a lot last night.”

“I know. I feel so embarrassed.” Drake smooth my hair out my face.

“Lea, are you okay?” He look so worried.

“I don’t know. I was so worried that the masquerade would turn out horrible and I was thinking too much, so I start drinking. I never been so stressed out in my life. I just try to keep myself busy, but no one wanted me to do anything. I don’t like not doing anything. Then, everything I was holding back inside got to me.” I close my eyes. “Drake how do you handle with your stress.” I open my eyes as Drake sat next to me.

“I go to the gym and work out.”

“Does it work?”

“A little. It takes some of the stress away.”

“Then what takes all the stress away.”

Drake smirks as he looks at me. “You do not want to know.” At first I was confused, until I finally gasped.

“Drake!” I punch him on his arm, but I couldn’t help but to smile too.

“What? You asked.” We start laughing. I lean on his shoulder.

“Thank you, Drake. If it wasn’t for you, I would still be in the woods.”

“No problem. I’m glad to help you. I don’t know what will happen if something happen to you. I’m really worried about you, Lea.”

“Aw… are you growing soft on me?” Drake smiles.

“Shut up.” I laugh. I can feel him staring at me. I look up and stare up into his beautiful hazel eyes.

“What?”

“It’s something about you that I like so much.”

“Aw. You think of me as family too.” I said as I smile, but he look so serious.

“Would I do this to my family?” He said as he stroked my cheek with the back of his hand before slowly leaning down to kiss me; giving me time to change my mind. He pause millimeters away from my lips and for a second I thought he was going to stop; but then his lips touch to mine again. His hand went to my waist barely touching me. Drake kiss me slowly and gently. I pull away a bit to catch my breath as I look up at him.

 

“No you wouldn’t, unless there something you not telling me.” My heart skipped a beat as he laugh.

“No I wouldn’t. I like you a lot, Lea… The reason I pick you to dance with is not to piss off my parents or that you owe me. I picked you because I wanted to. You were the first person on my mind. I like that you never gave up on me. I never felt like this with any other girl.” I was speechless to what he said. Drake was waiting for me to say something. I didn’t know what to say, so I kiss him again. It slowly got more passionate until I finally felt him flood my mind with emotion, completely subsiding my own pain. I let down any walls that threatened to rise while Drake drown me in a pool of lust and desire. I ran my fingers through his hair; while it shimmer under the lighting. Drake’s hands slid lightly down my sides, moving them back up to my waist as they neared my hips. He made me lift all of my walls so the emotions bled into every corner of my mind, I felt him move his hands to the zipper of my dress as he slip it slowly off of me, he kiss me slowly again,  “Lea, tell me what you want,” he whisper against my lips. 

 

“Make me forget,” he knew what I meant; he was reading my emotions as easily as he read a book. I want to forget losing Mom, Dad being in a coma, all the stress. All I wanted to do is focus on now. Everything became hazy as he unleash the flood of emotions into me; desire, lust, love.

Chapter 14

 

I woke up feeling a little sore. I gasp when I look up and see Drake. He was still asleep. He had his arms around me. I couldn’t help feeling comfortable in his arms. That’s when I realized what I done. I just had sex with Drake. I look under the covers. There was a little blood. I can’t believe I lost my virginity. I can remember the steamy night we shared. It was so good, but I felt so wrong. I groan.

 

“What have I done?” I said to myself. I sat up quickly, for I won’t wake him, and got out of bed. I grabbed the closest thing on to me, which was Drake’s shirt, and put it on. I look at the clock and it was 6:00 am. I start to feel nauseous, so I ran to Drake’s bathroom and threw up. As soon as I was done, I left out the bathroom and Drake was awake.

 

‘Crap.’ I thought to myself. I went to Drake. He sat up smiling groggily.

“Lea? What you doing?” he ask. I was a little happy he wasn’t all the way awake.

“I’m looking for my phone. Go back to sleep.” I said as I lean him back.

“Are you sure?” I can help.” He yawn as I help him lean back.

“Yes. Don’t worry. I’ll be back.”

“Okay.” He said as he close his eyes. I kiss him on the forehead before I slowly left out Drake’s room and quietly shut the door. I went to my room and shut the door.

‘What have I done?’ I thought to myself. I need to tell Sarah about this. Then I start to realize that I really don’t have my phone. I put my hand to my neck and went to the mirror. I don’t even have my locket Mom gave me. I still have the amulet on. I tried to look for my cell and my locket but it wasn’t there. I must have left them in the woods. I grab the house phone and dial my number. After a couple of minutes, I could hear it from outside. I went to the window and it is coming from the woods area. I must have dropped it while I was walking around. I hung up the phone, then I went downstairs and out the back door. I walked through the woods trying to retrace my steps. I called my phone again until I hear it ringing, but it was coming from right behind me. I slowly turn around and see Dylan. I start backing up.

 

“Looking for this.” He said as he held up my cell phone.

“What are you doing here?” I said through my teeth.

“Lea, I need to talk to you.” He said as he took a step toward me.

“Stay the hell away from me.”

“Lea. Come on. I won’t bite.”

“That’s what they said last time, but I still end up getting bitten.”

“Lea, I’m sorry.” He try to touch me, but I step back.

“I said stay away from me.”

“I want to make things right.”

“It was too late when you almost turn me into a wolf.” I tried to turn around, but Dylan grab my wrist.

“Lea, wait…” Before he could finish, I threw the house phone at him and ran away. I try to stay on my feet, but it was hard with my cast on, so I end up tripping and hitting my head on a boulder. I black out instantly.

**********************************************

 

I woke up to a bright light.

“Am I dead?” I ask as I try to sit up, but someone laid me back down.

“No. Thank God.” Gabriella said as she hug me.

“Are you crying?”

“No. I just had something in my eyes. Oh crap.  I just ruined my mascara. I will be right back.” Gabriella grab her purse and left the room. I look around the room. I was at the hospital. Caroline, Christopher, Mr. Knight, Sabrina, Ana, and Victor was here.

“What happened?” I ask as I touch my head. I felt the bandage. “I have a major headache.”

“You hit your head pretty hard that you cracked your skull.” Sabrina said

“How long have I been unconscious?”

“For two days. You kept drifting in and out of sleep.” Mrs. Knight said as I groan.

“How did I get here? I was in the middle of the woods.”

“Well, someone drop you off at the hospital and left. The doctor said if it wasn’t for him, you would be dead by now. Do you remember what happened?”

“All I remember is that I was looking for my phone and locket, then I was running away from somebody. Everything else is hazy.” I just left out the part that I woke up in Drake’s bed after having sex with him.

“Who were you running from?” Victor asked

“Um… Dylan.” I said

“I told Dylan to leave you alone. He never listen.” Sabrina said

“Do you remember what he want?” Ana ask

“I don’t know. All I know is that I was scared.” I said

“He need to be taught a lesson.” Christopher said as he stood up.

“Christopher, calm down.” Caroline said

“He tried to hurt her.”

“You don’t know that. Besides, Lea is fine now. Just sit down.”

“But…”

“Christopher, I’m alright. Going to Dylan will not change what happened. It only going to make matters worse.” I said. Christopher sigh and sat down. Crystal and Gabriella came into the room.

“Oh. You are awake.” Crystal said as she hug me.

“Gabriella didn’t tell you?” I ask

“I did.” Gabriella said as she frown

“Sorry Gabriella. I thought you were lying.” Crystal said.

“I never lied to you’ll.”

“Yes you do.” Everyone said

“Well… it was just a few times.” Gabriella said

“You have been lying all your life.” Crystal said

“No I haven’t.”

“Yes you have.”

“Why you guys didn’t tell me?”

“We did.”

“Oh… okay.” I put my finger to my temple.

“Oh… Lea. Do you notice anything different about me?” Crystal asked. I look over to her.

“Nothing, except you lost your baby fat… wait a minute. You had your baby!” I said

“Yes.”

“When?”

“I had him at the masquerade.”

“Aw. A baby boy. Not a girl. What is his name?”

“Yea. We decided to name him Louis Knight.”

“He is so adorable. You should see him.” Sabrina said

“Yeah. But I’m still cuter.” Gabriella said

“Shut up, Gabriella!” Everyone said. Gabriella cross her arm over her chest as she frown.

“I wish I could see him if I wasn’t stuck in bed.” I said

“Well, you can.” Caleb said as he brought Louis in a baby carrier.

“Aw, he
