Betrayed: Dark beginnings (6 page)

“Better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all.” Cecile said as she walked into the room.

“Thanks.” Lorcan mumbled.

“You know, I’m glad you’re here. We have always been so close and I never see you anymore.” Elizabeth said sweetly. Lorcan looked at her amused

“You could have come and seen me whenever you wanted, you know that.” Lorcan felt her soft hands wrapped around his. He stroked her hand gently with his thumb.

“I will have to start coming to see you more often.”  She looked up at him pitifully, she felt sorry for him.

They had always been good friends. He had a rough time this last year and she had not returned any of his calls. Lorcan smiled at her and pulled her into a hug.

He buried his face in her hair and felt her body against his. He had missed her so much. Lorcan pulled away and looked at Elizabeth. 

“You look more amazing every time I see you!” He gazed into her eyes. Lorcan had never liked a lot of women, but Elizabeth had a pull on him. He always come running back to her no matter what, and he knew he always would. Elizabeth stared back at him.

He knew she didn’t want to be with him, but he didn’t take it personally. She was like this with all men, he knew that. But he hoped one day he could win her love.

Chapter twelve

Jordan reached his house after taking a detour to the park and going for a walk. He saw his dad’s car parked out front. He got worried it was about news on Chloe, that would be the only reason he would come to the house, Jordan thought

“Dad, what are you doing here?” Jordan looked surprised. He looked at his dad’s wrinkled complexion. He looked a lot older; he had only seen him last month. He couldn’t expect Jordan to forgive him this time. He hadn’t bothered with him since Chloe went missing.

Jordan knew his dad would have come by to beg Jordan for another chance to be a ‘better father’ like before. Not a chance. He stood there and waited for the excuses to start.

“Hi son, I’m not here to see you. I’m here to speak to your mother. I’ll catch up with you another time ok?” His dad turned away from him and walked into the kitchen.

“Oh… ok.” Jordan said baffled. Had he heard him right? Either way, he decided to give up on his dad; he was done giving out chances. He walked up the stairs and threw his bag on to his bed with force. He ground his teeth as he could hear his dad talking in his patronising voice through the floor. Jordan tiptoed downstairs and listened to their conversation through the kitchen door.             

“I HAVE been looking for her Jane! Don’t act like I don’t care about her, she is my daughter too!” His dad said angrily.

“You never act like you give a crap!” His mother snapped back.

“I’ve been busy, you don’t understand.” There was a long pause and Jordan could hear the clinking of dishes.

“It must be so difficult trotting around with that thing!” His mother said in a loud whisper. Jordan’s dad thumped the table and stood up.

“She is not a thing, she is a person, and I love her!” He said angrily.

Jordan could hear forced laughter from his mother.

“Sure, non-stop partying, lots of drinking and trashy clothes. She sounds lovely.” His mother said sarcastically.

“You are just jealous of her.”

“Yeah, sure, I’m jealous of some weird creature.” “She is an Encantado, and she is amazing. Do not talk about her like that.”

“She is still better than you.” Jane walked over to him and stared at him venomously.

“You have changed since you have been with that. Since you met her you have not been yourself. I was upset until I followed you down to the beach that dreadful night, and I saw her turn into a fucking dolphin. Then I realized that you are weird, you and your girlfriend. I am glad I am not with you anymore. I am certainly glad that I am not a shape shifting fish.” She pushed open the kitchen door. “Get out!” She spat.

       Jordan stormed out in front of his mum.

“Sorry am I hearing this right; your girlfriend is a dolphin? What sort of weird shit is this?” Jordan forced his way into the kitchen and confronted his father.

“So first vampires, then this, I don’t know what to believe anymore.” He sat down on one of the kitchen chairs.              His dad sat across from him and lowered his head.

“It’s not what you think. I wanted to keep you from all of this. Just don’t tell anyone what you heard ok.” His dad said softly. Jordan pushed the table from him, slamming it into his dad’s stomach and thumped his fist down on the worktop.

“IT IS ALWAYS THIS; I ALWAYS HAVE TO KEEP THINGS QUIET! IT’S LIKE THE VAMPIRE THING ALL OVER AGAIN. YOU ARE NOT THERE FOR ME SO WHY SHOULD I KEEP ANYTHING A SECRET FOR YOU!” Jordan shouted at his dad.

“Calm down son...”

“DO NOT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!” Jordan interrupted him.

“Look the vampire thing was different. Those disgusting bloodthirsty creatures...” Jordan cut him off again.

“Yeah I have heard it all before. Well guess what. I am in love with a vampire. And don’t tell me it’s wrong, you’re in love with an encantardio...”

“Encantado.” His dad corrected him.

“Whatever. Either way I am not interested. Don’t bother speaking to me again. And by the way, Chloe probably ran away to get away from you. Everything is your fault.” He said nastily as he stormed out of the kitchen and grabbed his jacket.

 
              “See what you have done.” His mother said angrily to his dad.

“Jordan let me just explain. Let’s talk about this for goodness sakes.” His dad pleaded

“Goodbye.” Jordan said viciously, as he walked out of the house, slamming the door behind him.

He was going to Elizabeth’s. He walked up the street kicking small stones into the fence. He clenched his fists as he thought about his dad. He walked fast, his heart pounding loudly.

CHAPter thirteen

Elizabeth walked upstairs into the bathroom and turned the taps on; she put a mix of bubble bath in and watching the bubbles appear. The smell of lavender filled the bathroom and the water changed to a pale shade of purple.

She got unchanged and stepped in; the water was hot and felt good on her body. She let her hair down and went under the surface, wetting her hair and face.

Cecile walked in unannounced. “Elizabeth, Jordan’s at the door, what shall I tell him?” She said carefull
y watching Elizabeth’s reaction.

“Why is he here?” Elizabeth said curiously. She hadn’t invited him; he was supposed to be coming around tomorrow night; that was the plan.

“I don’t know, he just said he needs to see you.” Cecile picked her clothes up from the floor and put them in the laundry basket.

“Tell him to come up.” Elizabeth said, slightly annoyed.

She stepped out of the bath creating a little puddle on the white marble floor and pulled a towel around herself. She stepped out into the hall.

“Oh sorry, your aunt told me to just come upstairs.” Jordan said to her breasts

“Come into my room, and my eyes are up here. Why are you here anyway? Missed me?” she said cheekily.

“Sorry.” He looked up to her face and went bright red. “To be honest, I can’t stand being around my house at the moment and I just wanted to see you. I hope you don’t mind.” He said looking worried.

“No its fine, don’t worry.” She lied, it was not fine but she needed him here tomorrow, so she played along.

“Great, so are you ok? I’ve missed you.” He said. He walked up behind her and put his arms around her waist.

“I’m fine. Do you want to stay tonight?” She said. She wouldn’t mind a bit of company.  His eyes lit up as she said this, of course he wanted to stay with her.

Elizabeth turned to face him, he smelled so sweet and his hair looked really sexy today she thought. Jordan felt all the anger from earlier build up inside him. Instead of breaking down he used her as a distraction.

Without warning, he kissed her hard pushing her up against one of the bedposts. She could feel her towel slipping down as he thrust his groin against her hip, his erection hard, waiting to be sprung. She moved her hand down and felt his erection through his jeans stroking it. He moaned quietly, which only turned her on even more.

He moved his hand towards her breasts cupping them and rolled her nipples between his fingertips. She couldn’t stop herself and moaned loudly. This made him more excited, he pulled her tightly against his body and she stopped stroking his erection.

“No, please baby.” He moaned. At this moment nothing else mattered, she wanted him here and now. He pushed her down onto the bed and pulled his top off. He was strong, muscly, and perfect. Elizabeth slowly undid the button on his jeans and pulled them down; he shook them off and put his arms under her pulling her tightly against him.

He moved his fingers up the inside of her legs, making her moan louder and louder as he stroked her clitoris softly with two of his fingers. He could feel her getting wet; it was all over his fingers. He moved his lips up to hers and kissed her vigorously, as he cupped her breasts; she moaned and bit her lip as he moved his lips down towards her breasts, kissing her softly.

He put his mouth over her hard nipples and nibbled on them with his teeth, he could tell she liked it as she jerked her body wanting more. He kissed down to her belly button, and moved down to her clitoris, she could feel his hot breath on her as he used his tongue skilfully against her, she moaned as he stuck his tongue inside her, she felt dizzy, she wanted him now.

She pulled him up to face her, pulling down his boxers as his erection sprung free, it was hard and long, she wrapped her hand around it and  moved her hand up and down slowly, as she felt it pulsating under her hot skin.

“I am going to fuck you so hard.” She smiled saucily. He was already sweating.

“Oh Jordan!” she moaned. He pushed his erection inside of her, panting, grinding in and out. He lifted her legs up and fucked her with force. She could feel herself about to cum; she pushed herself harder against him, kissing him, scratching his back. He got on to his knees and Elizabeth wrapped her legs around his hips.

He got up and pushed her against the wall. His moaning turned her on even more and she couldn’t stop herself, it felt amazing.

She went dizzy and almost passed out. She could feel him cum inside of her. She let out a groan and his breathing eased.

“That was amazing!” He said breathlessly.

“Yes it was.” she said still panting; it was true that was amazing, she thought. He sat down on the bed and she flopped down next to him. He moved himself up to her and kissed her. He held her tightly against him, running one hand through her hair.

“I’m so glad I came over tonight.” He said smiling.

“Me too” she whispered.  Elizabeth got up to clean herself; she felt his eyes bore into her as she tiptoed out of the bedroom. That was incredible sex and she wanted more. Shame he has to die, she thought. When she walked back into the room, he was lying there under the covers smiling.

Elizabeth pulled her silk night gown on and lay next to Jordan. She smiled.

“I like you Lizzie a lot, and this isn’t a onetime thing. You’re all I can think about and I would like it if we were together.”  This caught her a little off guard; she didn’t know what to say.

“Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?” She said rubbing her eyes.

“Yes.” He said charmingly, and looked deep into her eyes. She didn’t know what to do; she had to say yes really, she had to keep him close just until tomorrow night.

“Yes Jordan, I will be your girlfriend.” she said smiling; he pulled her into him and put his arms around her, kissing her neck. They lied together for hours; she wrapped her body around his as he stroked her hair.

They both slept well that night. She woke up early and could feel his muscular arms wrapped around her. It felt elating.

She laid there for some time thinking about tonight. A part of her didn’t want to go ahead with it, but as she heard Cecile’s humming from downstairs, she knew she had no choice. She needed to speak to Lorcan; she just needed to get Jordan out the house for a bit. She felt guilty for what she was about to do.

She actually enjoyed
Jordan’s company, a lot.  But she knew she needed to do it. If not she would lose Cecile.

Jordan woke up looking dazed.

“Good morning,” Elizabeth said brightly.

“Morning.” Jordan said lazily as he wriggled over to her. He pulled her closer to him.

“I love waking up with you.” He said sweetly. Tears prickled her eyes as she thought of losing him.

“You need to leave; I have loads to do today.” She said bluntly. He sat up and looked upset.

“Oh… ok, well I will see you later then.” Jordan said grumpily. She turned around and hugged him tightly.

“I want you to stay, I do. It’s just I have things I need to do, Umm family stuff.” She lied.

He got out of bed and got dressed. She watched him getting changed and felt gutted that she would never again see his hot body.

He kissed her gently on the lips and walked out the door with a grin on his face.

“Men.” Elizabeth rolled her eyes at Cecile. Cecile just laughed that was something Elizabeth had not heard in a long time.

“I’m glad that you’re happier now.” She smiled sweetly at her. If only she knew what her plans were for tonight.

Elizabeth rang Lorcan and asked him to come over, she told Cecile to keep quiet about last night. Lorcan was always the jealous type and she did not want anything to affect her plans.
