The Rejected Phoenix

Chapter 36. Subtitle : angry vampire. ** Melanie's POV*** "why isn't he waking up? * I asked for the umpteenth time as my face was filled with worry and fear. Fears of loosing my precious mate, I managed to leave the damn evil forest with the unconscious Ryker a few hours ago. I was able to locate the immortal city after a very difficult time. "don’t worry dear. He'll wake up in less than an hour and your also very exhausted and over worked my dear. I think you should take a rest. The Vampire is trying to stall the cave for the moment before you fully recover to enter it. " Grand mother muttered and used a white napkin to wipe my face clean. "where the fuck has that evil vampire being huh! * I snapped with bloodshot eyes. "manners girl. You can't talk of your great grand uncle like that! " Grandma snapped. I've never seen her have such a fierce and domineering gaze,it sent chills down my spine. "he knew very well that this damn place is dangerous, why did he bring us in and then throw us all in different directions. My mate almost got killed because of the damn old man! * I growled at her, I wasn't gonna keep quiet just because she warned me not to speak. "it wasn't him who threw you to different directions. That's how it happens when humans break into the world of the dead immortals. You are still alive and you need to leave this place in the next twenty four hours or else the torn net between the immortal and the mortal world will be torn and left open forever and the demons and witches can come in without justified entrance agreement. And you know what will happen that happens. This world will totally be completely lost and all beings will suffer from it. It will lead to a huge lost in lives. So if your unable to leave in the next twenty four hours I would have to kill you myself!" She snapped and I looked at her with shock. The whole thing she was just explaining was something I couldn't comprehend at all. "isn't the land of the immortal supposed to be really beautiful next to non? Why is it this so damn dangerous and spoky?" Lulu asked. Even I too was confused. "this sure is the immortal land but this is just the border between the immortal and mortal world. Of course demons will roam here. Only demons and troubled souls who have not yet complete the task given to them before they died will remain here. The immortal world is still far from here and is bigger than you can imagine. * She said and stood up. "does that mean you haven't completed the tas! given to you? What exactly didn't you complete? * I couldn't help but ask her. She was going to walk out of the tenth when she stopped at the entrance. "I am supposed to be the ones doing your job but I failed. All I was able do is spend the rest of my life in a desert to make you who you are. I haven't completed my task yet and can't cross over to the real Immortal world, my fate in this world counts on you. If you fail me then I won't be able to return. I will be left locked out here in this dangerous part of the world. Those monsters who harmed your mate ain't just demons for nothing. They failed to do their job and got casted out here. They don't have anything to do so they turned bad. So am begging you to please do this for the little respect you have left for me.." She cooed and finally left. I sighed and buried my head in my palms. What's was going on? My head was literally spinning in twos and I was getting a really hard head ache. Lulu rubbed my back to help soften down my nervousness which helped. "what's this all we've gotten ourselves into lulu? Their gonna kill us if we don’t leave here in one day. I said and she sighed. Luckily Ryker was able to wake up an hour later and his wounds have healed up to a pint were he is now strong to fight. It was a big relieve to me who had my hopes high for him to heal in time. "why don't you stay back this one alpha. Lulu and I can go to the cave alone and get his body,your still weak." I cooed and touched his cheeks and he looked at me with cold gaze. "I get it that you feel bad and sorry for me which is an offence to me but I can handle it. You don't have to treat me like a baby." His voice was gruffy and deep and he had a piercing gaze on. I was literally hurt by what he just said and I frowned and let go of his face standing up. "seriously... Am I an obstacle to you now? I should stop treating you like a baby? Your really one ungrateful brat. I have risked my life more than three times to save your ass,if I hadn't come last night then that monster would have eaten you alive! You damn ungrateful bastard!" I snapped and grabbed his hair. He started laughing as he grabbed my hands and forced me to look at him "oh so now I look funny to you... I'm gonna shove off your balls your damn alpha !" I snapped and tried to break free from him. "hahahahah! * He kept laughing and I couldn't help but boil with anger. Do I really look that funny to him now! "your really cute when your angry. Jeez..your one angry bird yunno. You took it to heart when I said I don't want you treating me like a kid, thats because I'm not one. I'm an alpha who deserves some respect... He chuckled and made me sat on his laps. I looked at him with a stern look. "oh right mister. You should have told the moon goddess that you don't want me as a mate. Then you won't get treated like a baby. But as long as your mated to me you'll always be a baby. Got it! * I smirked and ruffled his hair. He pouted and I bursted out laughing, I had never seen the playful side of him before and it was really a good thing to see. "sure ma“am.. I'll always be a baby, your baby.." He cooed and I smiled and gave him a peck. He whined and nodded his head indicating that he wants more. "you look hilarious when you act like a baby. I fucking love this side of you.. " I said and leaned in for a more longer kiss when... "ermmnermm... Hmm." Lulu cut us out with a loud scary voice. I jerked back but didn't leave his laps. "seriously? We are getting killed if we don't leave here in twenty four hours and you two still have the appetite to kiss? At least wait till I'm outta this damn place! " She glared and turned to leave. "we should go now..." She added and finally left the room. I looked at Ryker awkwardly and slowly stood up from his laps. "we should go too.. " I cooed and dragged him out of the room. *** general POV*** The three stood right in front of the rock cave in the middle of the dark forest of the immortal world. They had their gaze fixate on the cave and were thinking on how to start out when the vampire suddenly appeared in front of them using an almost invincible speed Lulu almost shouted thinking it was a monster who had just appeared but realized when she saw who it was. "where the f*ck have you being vampire... Are you trying to breach our deal or what! " Melanie snapped she really had a very bad mouth, looking at the Vampire who turned to look at her with an angry and mean look, his long canines were now visible for the first time and his eyes turn bloodshot red, there were streaky lines of blood veins on his face and he looked like a horror charecter from a TV series. Melanie recoiled in fear and stood besides Ryker. "you don't talk to me anyhow pup..im still your great grand uncle and I tell you this, I can kill even my own blood so don't mess with me! * His voice was cold as ice and melanie wondered what happened to him. But then his eyes softened and his cannines went lost, he was back to his normal self. He sighed as he looked at the frightened Melanie. He walked towards her and made to touch her hands when he heard a grow! from the alpha king and he stepped back a little. "I din't mean to yell at you like that or scare you. Just don't get on my nerves again got it.. * He said softly but in a cold way and stepped back, turning to face the cave entrance. "let's go." He cooed and started walking towards the cave. Melanie followed him along with Ryker and Lulu.
