offered as she and the others grabbed their coats.
"No, I'm a big girl. I can get to my car just fine. I don't need escorts." I retorted as I stomped angrily out of the café. My car was just up the block; I bundled up my coat and began jog to my SUV. As I turned the corner, I bumped into something hard, falling down to the hard wet pavement.
"Ouch!" I winced, as I looked up at my bruised and scared hand.
"Sorry Miss. You should watch where you're going." The man in the darkness chuckled. I couldn't see his face; only his eyes. Those glowing green eyes. I flinched, fear shaking through my body. There was something unnatural about him.
"Now what's a little lady like you doing out here all alone?" He asked in the darkness. His tone seemed playful. I quickly reached into my pocket for my pepper spray.
"I'm okay. Just let me pass." I demanded, as I pulled myself off the ground and began to leave. He blocked me, pushing himself into me.
"You smell so delicious. It's almost a sin to just let you walk by." He murmured, burying his face into my neck. He inhaled deeply, almost as if he was enjoying the smell of me.
"Hmm…" He sighed.
"Let go of me!" I yelled. "Help me! Somebody…" He pulled back angrily and the back of his hand flew across my face so swiftly, that I didn't even see it coming. I fell back onto the hard wet pavement, wincing from the pain of his swift smack.
"I'm going to enjoy this." He laughed.
"Leigha! Oh my god Leigha!" Tiffany screamed. I looked up to see her running towards me; Naomi and Jenny behind her.
"We'll have to continue this somewhere else." The man in the darkness said. He reached down and gripped me tightly around the waist, pulling me effortlessly from the ground.
"Somebody help! Please!" Tiffany yelled out into the empty streets. Suddenly, something happened. I couldn't fathom what happened, but apparently Tiffany's screams had worked. I was suddenly thrown into pillar of snow. As I shook off the stupor, I tried to focus my vision onto what was happening. There were screams in the darkness, just behind the trees.
"Please… I didn't know. Please! Have mercy on me!" The man yelled. His loud pleading was suddenly muffled by screams of pain. I winced as I heard the cracking of bones, and what sounded like the tearing of flesh, being removed from his body.
I tried to sit up; my body ached so horribly. A pair of black eyes struck fear in me and I began to scream.
"Help! Help!" I screamed.
"Shh love, I'm not going to hurt you." He crooned. The voice was familiar, my handsome knight and shining armor from the café.
"You…" I sighed.
"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" He asked curiously.
"I'm okay. Help me up please." He sighed and with one swift movement, I was on my feet. I looked up into his midnight eyes, and they were glowing. I looked around for my attacker, but he was nowhere to be found.
"Where did he go? We have to catch him before he hurts someone else!" I complained. I winced, my side was sore from his tight grip. My savior quickly hurried to my aid, pulling me to his side.
"Maybe I should get you to a hospital." He offered.
"NO!" I roared. My mother would freak. And I don't even want to think about how Randy would react.
"But you're hurt." He countered.
"My stepfather is a doctor. Just help me to my car." He frowned.
"I'm not letting you drive in your condition. I'll take you home. Now where do you live?"
"Leigha! Oh my god!" Tiffany yelled as he hurried over to us. Tiffany, Jenny, and Naomi began beating my savior with their expensive purses.
"Get off of her you pervert!" Tiffany roared.
"Tiffany stop! He's not the guy you're looking for!" I yelled, shielding myself from the current attack he was receiving. The girls froze, staring at us as my savior tried fixing himself.
"Ladies." He crowed, fixing his clothing. His hood fell from his head, and the girls gasped in shock, dropping to their knees.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry your highness." Tiffany and the girls
