Chapter 235 - Voices
John turned around to walk inside as soon as a maid went to open to him and Abigail speeded right in time inside. The maid which was a vampire just like her heard her spreading in her direction and managed to groan as she pushed Abigail onto the ground.
Abigail revealed her long sharp fangs as she pushed the maid\'s body to roll her down and switch position but the woman was strong enough to endure Abigail\'s sharp fangs sinking in her shoulders.
"Daisy! Let her!" John screamed to the maid who as soon as she heard him released her grip and stood up.
"Who is h..." the maid murmured to John but before she could finish she saw Roselyn run to hug Abigail.
John knitted his eyebrows down as his gaze was fixed on Abigail and trying to monitor her and check if she behaved well with Roselyn.
The two sisters hugged each other tightly as if they hadn\'t met in years, Roselyn had sparkling eyes full of joy and commotion.
"How are you?" Roselyn soon asked when she departed from the hug and traveled her gaze through her sister\'s body to check if she had changed much.
Her skin was paler than before, almost unrecognizable for the extreme paleness, her eyes were red and her pupils were dilatated, her dark circles turned of purple-red shades probably due to her lack of blood.
As soon as Abigail inhaled Roselyn\'s scent she could feel her senses go crazy and her nerves starting to shake and pushing her to bite her. She could smell how her blood taste like and all of a sudden she forgot who the woman in front of her was and she only saw her as fuel for her body.
Her pupils widened even more and her fangs grow longer at the thought of finally coming in contact with a human.
John recognized that gaze very well, it was the gaze she had when he met her the first time and when she lost control. He couldn\'t let her hurt Roselyn, he rashed in the middle of the two sisters, and right when Abigail tried to bent his head ahead to bite Roselyn he intervened and pushed her against the floor.
"John! Don\'t hurt her… please!" Roselyn yelled to him as she went to push him behind but she barely moved John\'s body from crashing Abigail\'s body against the floor.
"Abigail. She is Roselyn, you\'re sister. Control yourself. Take long breathes." John said to Abigail as he kept pushing her against the floor and impeding her to move her hands as she held her wrists tightly.
Abigail\'s eyes didn\'t stop flashing the intense crimson light, it wasn\'t a good sign. John couldn\'t let her free even if Roselyn was begging him to do so. It was not that he wasn\'t trusting Abigail but he wasn\'t trusting the vampire in her, the dominant uncontrolled urges that pushed her to do terrible things.
The maid who just as John recognized the familiar gaze went to grab Roselyn\'s from her hips and lifted her to teleport her from the opposite side of the room.
When John was free to move she lifted Abigail from her neck and crushed her against the floor as he kept her hands trapped with his other huge hand.
"Don\'t hurt her!" Roselyn screamed once again as her voice was so broken and at the same time mad, she was for the first time in her life thinking about using her powers against John this time.
Abigail narrowed her eyes in pain as she hit her head against the wall.
"Remember the child." John leaned closer to Abigail\'s ear to whisper and for a second Abigail regained her human nature only to be back to her animalistic one and groan to John.
"You were going to kill the child driven by your cravings. Do you want to kill your sister now?" John raised his voice as he forgot Roselyn was in the room as well and she was listening to them.
When Roselyn heard him her gaze went blank and she froze as she remembered clearly her vision when she dreamed of Abigail wanting to hurt the child, John was the one who told her that was a vision and reassured her Abigail would never do such a thing. She believed in him, hearing him use that sentence to bring Abigail back to her senses made her have shivers and start to feel dizzy.
He lied to her, he knew the truth but he lied to her. Abigail was capable to do such a thing. She didn\'t know what to do, her face became paler and just then Abigail clenched her fists to control her insists.
Roselyn\'s legs collapsed and the maids who were holding her widened her eyes as she felt Roselyn\'s heartbeat suddenly fasten. Roselyn crawled her foot to hold onto the ground and not fall, at that effort, her legs began to shake and she had to blink few times to clarify her sight.
John soon turned around as soon as he felt Roselyn\'s heartbeat increasing, "I\'m sorry..." John whispered as he reminded the night when he lied to Rose about her dream.
"I\'m sorry, I lied to you to make you feel better..." John murmured as he didn\'t know how to justify himself, he wanted to run to her and hug her and beg her to forgive him but he couldn\'t let Abigail free, not yet.
Roselyn barely heard him as all she could see and hear was the vision of Abigail willing to kill the child and feed on his blood, it was like she dissociated from her body to intrude into Abigail\'s body. She could feel how hard the craving was and how badly her body was pushing her to commit such a terrible gesture she would never commit if she was human.
"Rose...." John called her in a desperate voice but his voice kept fading and was surpassed by the wind\'s blow.
