My Savior is Dead

I was let out of the hospital that night and Nathaniel drove me home.
I made him drop me off a block away and said my dad would be furious if i were with a boy.
It was the truth but not the whole truth.
He was going to be furious no matter what.
I hadn't come home right after school.

I walked into the house to it being quiet.
Weird..
I was walking up the stairs.

"Nice of you to come home, Athena."

I stopped and slowly turned around to see my dad sitting in his chair drinking vodka.
Shit.

"What, did you think it was okay to come home way past your curfew?"
"No, I-"
"Come here, right now." He growled.

I dropped my bag and walked over to him looking down.
He stood up and set the bottle down.

"Look at me."

I looked up and was slapped hard across the face.
I dropped to the ground yelping.
I held my left cheek.
It was on fire.

"Stand up right now."

I quickly got to my feet.
He grabbed my arm forcefully.

"Dad, you're hurting me." I cried.
"I dont fucking care. This is what happens when you're late."

He pulled me up the stairs towards my room.
He opened the door and threw me on the bed.
He slammed the door shut and locked it.
He turned and glared at me.
He's never locked the door before...

"Strip."
"What?"
"DO WHAT I FUCKING SAY, ATHENA!"

I quickly stripped to my bra and underwear and held myself feeling exposed.
He walked over and pushed me on the bed.
He ripped my underwear and bra off throwing it across the room.
He unzipped his pants then.
I started to sob.

"Please don't dad..."
"Shut up."

He pulled out duct tape and ripped off a piece putting it on my mouth.
I couldnt stop crying.
He pulled his pants and underwear off.
He tried to slam into me but I closed my legs.
He then forcefully spread my legs and kept them like that.
He slammed into me making me scream bloody murder.
I felt the warm liquid slid down and hit the sheet.
He kept slamming in.
About an hour later he exploded inside of me and got up pulling his pants on.
He ripped the duct tape off.

"Disobey me again and this will happen. And next time you better fucking enjoy it."

He then unlocked my door and left.
I laid there in pain.
I decided to get up a few minutes later and take a shower to scrub off the dirty feeling.
To walk was painful.
I've never been in so much pain before.
The beatings at school were nothing.

I went to sleep that night crying and in pain.
I only got maybe three or four hours of sleep.

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

The next day i took my time walking because the pain was still there.
I didnt care to cover the bruises on my face.
I didnt care to cover up.
I was too exhausted to care.
I took my seat in my first class and laid my head down.
Once the whole class filed in I felt someone tap my shoulder.
I looked up to find Nathaniel kneeling in front of me.

"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, i'm fine." I fake smiled.

He didnt look convinced.
He pulled me up and I winced.
He told Mr.Terrance that we needed to talk and we left.
Nathaniel dragged me through the halls but it was so painful that i dropped to the ground.
Nathaniel rushed to my side and picked me up.
I squeezed my eyes shut at the pain.
He set me down on a soft cushion and i heard a door shut.
I opened my eyes and we were in his car.
He got in on the driver's side and started the car racing out.

"Why do you care so much?"
"Athena there's alot you don't know."
"Obviously."

About fifteen minutes later we arrived at a freaking mansion.
It was red brick and had a huge dragon fountain in the front.
I should've figured by his nice sleek Dodge Challenger.
When he stopped the car he got out and came to help me out.
He carried me in and opened the door.
I was greeted by black marble floors and dark red walls.
Paintings covered the walls.
A huge chandelier
was hanging in the middle and a huge black marble staircase to the right.
He carried me up the stairs into his bedroom im guessing.
It had a big king sized bed with black sheets.
His walls were black with paintings on the walls as well.
His house was nice as fuck.
When he laid me down he sat next to me.

"Athena there's something I need to tell you."
"Okay."
"You're more than just an ordinary girl. Your family is not what you think it is."
"What do you mean."

He stood up and walked into a closet and came out with a painting.

"This is your great grandmother, Aphrodite."
"Okay."
"She is a queen to my kind."
"Your kind?"
"Your great grandmother is the queen of vampires. I'm a vampire and your parents now? They arent your real parents."

I sat up and immediately regretted it.
I groaned and laid back down.

"What did he do to you, Athena?"

I immediately began crying.

"He raped me..." I whispered.

Nathaniel tensed up and growled.
His eyes turned from green to black.

I backed away.

He took deep breaths and his eyes turned back to normal.

"Your mother and father were killed years ago by the authorities. They claimed they were a threat to society."
"Were they vampires?"
"Your mother was. Your father was human like you."

I suddenly felt a shot of pain and screamed holding myself.
Nathaniel was at my side immediately.

"The transformation..." He whispered.
"What?!"
"When your virginity is taken the transformation begins."

I began crying instantly.
He held me.
Another shot of pain and I squeezed my eyes shut crying out in agony.
He laid us down and I clutched his shirt.
He rubbed my back.

"How long does this last?"
"Three days."
"FUCK!"

More pain came.
This time it felt like someone was stabbing me multiple times.
I screamed and he kissed my forehead.
Soon the pain was too much that my vision was becoming blurry.
Before I blacked out he told me soothing words.

"Sleep, my beautiful princess. I'll be here when you wake."

Princess?
Beautiful?
Why would he tell me such lies?
This was all too much to handle.
My great grandmother was the vampire queen.
The people who I thought were my parents actually werent.
I was turning into a vampire myself.
My real parents were dead.
And here I am living in hell when I could've been with my grandmother.
Fuck this.
