Monster Academy - The Blood of Humans - Chapter Twenty-One

Castle of Legends:
Darren grabbed Diana by the neck and started strangling her, Alex watched, helpless as Diana, trying to fight back, dug her nails in Darren's face, leaving bloody marks, but Darren didn't seem to notice, the marks just healed up like his wolf bites.

"Darren! Stop!" Alex shouted, she couldn't just stand there while he killed Diana, sure, she didn't like the bitch, but if Darren killed another monster...

Darren suddenly flung Diana across the forest, she landed head first into a tree, hairline fractures spread along the tree until the bark began to snap and the tree stared to fall.

Alex stood in front of Darren as he went after Diana, her hands going to his chest "Darren please, you have to stop this! People will hear...they'll see what you did!" Darren didn't even look at her, he just shoved her hard, hard enough that Alex lost her footing and fell, she swore then glared at Darren as he approached the prone Diana, blood running down her silvery blonde hair.

She left her no choice, she didn't like using it but it was the only way.

Alex hurried to her feet and grabbed Darren from behind, hugging him, Darren swore and grabbed her by the arm, applying hard pressure on it, Alex shut her eyes, blind to the pain as she opened her mouth and started to sing a soft, melodic song.

Darren's struggling soon stopped, his breathing slowed, Alex let him go and he turned on her, his eyes no longer dilated, but misty, his mouth open part way, all the signs that the siren song was working.

Darren's hands went to her face, she tried not to shiver, his hands were so soft and gentle....and cold, icy cold.

He started to lean in and Alex was tempted to let him kiss her, but if he did, he would snap out of the trance...and become her slave. That was the curse of the Siren Song. Alex took the rock she was holding and brought it up, smashing it into the side of Darren's head. Darren crumpled up at the blow and fell, uncoinscious, Alex felt her cheeks flush but she didn't show it, she dropped the rock and knelt down besides Darren, Diana slowly got to her feet and stared.

Alex put her hand to Darren's face "...I'm sorry"
