Chapter 2: Damaged
Elodie woke up early the next morning. Even though she had specifically told Hakkai that coffee this morning was strictly platonic, she could help but feel excited and hopeful. There was something about him that piqued her interest. Of course his good looks helped the matter as well. From the first time she laid eyes on him, she had wanted to run her small hands through his thick black hair. It looked so lustrous and soft.
The condition he had been in when she found him was horrifying. No human would have survived the injuries he had sustained. His mid-section had been ripped open below a giant scar that marred his abdomen, his left arm was fractured in five different places and a large gash in his thigh had nicked the femoral artery. When she came around the corner of the building and saw him, she could tell from his coloration that he had lost enough blood to be dead. Luckily he still had a pulse.
After a few days of intense medical care, he began to heal. She had known right from the start that he was a demon; yet for some reason, he didn’t strike fear into her heart like the other demons she had come across in her life. Instead he entranced her. She was incredibly curious about him. Something about him gave her an odd sense of comfort. She simply couldn’t understand why she felt captivated by him.
Days past and he regained consciousness. Once he was brought up to date with what had happened to him, he began to watch her. Partly it unnerved her and partly it excited her. Shortly after he noticed her, he initiated a daily routine of short conversations. She enjoyed them immensely, because they gave her insight to this mysterious man. She learned that he normally travelled with three other men, one was a demon, another was a half-breed, and the last was a monk. Elodie found the combination of them to be strange but he told me that they had been together for years and were basically brothers. She loved listening to him talk. His voice was a nice soothing baritone that made her feel comforted. He also had a way of making her feel like there was nothing to worry about in the world. She could tell that he tried to keep an outward appearance of cheerfulness and carefree spirit, but she realized early on that there was so much more under that demeanor. He was a complex man who knew exactly how to act to trick the world.
The day he asked her to coffee she was not sure how to respond at first. There had been other men who had been hospitalized and taking care of by her that developed a fancy towards her. Some were polite and admired from afar, but then there were those few who went far beyond the boundaries and had resorted to violence when she turned them down. The physical and emotional scars that remained from those assaults caused her to be extremely wary when new male patients arrived in her wing, especially the ones who noticed her.
With Hakkai however, the only excuse she could come up with to turn him down was the strict policy the hospital had for all of its employees. Secretly she had wanted to say yes as soon as he had asked, but she couldn’t let herself get caught up in something romantic when she knew so little about him, not to mention the reality of what he was.
The disappointment she saw in his beautiful emerald eyes struck her heart with a force she was not expecting. At that moment, she made a promise to herself that if he remained in town for more than a month, then she would give him a chance.
When he showed up at her door the next morning, she was shocked and delighted. She knew then that he was a determined man and wasn’t going to give up until she gave in, so she did.
No here she was rummaging through her closet for something decent to wear. It had been a couple years since she had been on a date. With work taking up most of her time, she had never gotten the chance for feelings to blossom for any male that may have happened to show up in her life. She was going to make sure that she looked absolutely breath taking, even if it was just for coffee. ‘Why waste a perfectly good opportunity to feel amazing?’ she thought to herself as she selected a tight fitting black skirt and a nice emerald green lace and cotton tank.
A knock at her door gave her a start as she was adding the finishing touches to her outfit. “Who the hell could that be?” she mused aloud softly. Taking a quick glance at herself in her mirror she went to the door.
She slid the dead bolt out of its locked position and was about to crack open the door when it burst open, sending her straight to the floor cracking her head again the hard wood. Pain shot up her back and exploded in her head. She sat up as quickly as she could to see what had just happened. Her head felt horrendous and the blow had made her vision blurry. Elodie looked at her door and could barely make out shapes. As her vision began to clear she saw a man leaning nonchalantly up against her door jam. “Well hello there darling.” The man smiled maliciously deliberately revealing his fangs. Horror washed over Elodie as she realized the terrible danger she was in. All she could do was sit there and stare. His ice blue gaze sent shivers throughout her body. The way he was watching her was as if she was a rare delicacy just waiting to be consumed. She needed to act immediately.
Gathering as much inner strength as she could muster she flung herself to her feet and began to run in the opposite direction of the terrifying creature. Deeper into her home she ran trying to make it to the hidden back entrance.
As soon as I she touched the handle the demon man came out of nowhere and threw her against the wall to the right of the door. The impact of the wall and her body took the air from her lungs. Elodie looked up from the floor where she hand crumpled. The creature was smirking as if he was enjoying himself with a new toy. “What do you want you bastard?!” Elodie’s voice shook with fear and anger. The demon began to walk slowly towards her. With every step he took, she tried to scoot farther away. To her horror, he backed her into a corner, leaving room for escape. He grabbed her by her upper arms and hauled her to her feet. His sharp nail dug into her flesh and she couldn’t help but gasp at the pain. “What I want is a new pet to keep me entertained and I think you are going to be perfect.” Elodie glared daggers at this intruder, hating him with every fiber of her being. “You can go to hell!” With a sudden burst of strength she lashed out at him. She kicked him in the knee and went to scratch out his eyes, but instead scratched his cheek when he dodged.
Duri had not anticipated that this little blonde would be a fighter. The fact that she had just attacked him with fire burning in her eyes made him all the more positive that she would be the perfect mate. He quickly restrained her by grabbing her wrists and shoving her against the wall, pinning her with his entire body. “Let me go!” She screamed and struggled but to her anguish, he was far stronger than she.
He brought his face closer to hers, their lips almost touching. “Now pet, I really would rather not have to hurt you, but if you keep fighting me, you are going to leave me no choice.” The way he threatened her made her sick. His voice had this sweet tone to it as if they were in the middle of making love or as if he was consoling her. Her stomach felt nauseous as she felt him sniff her neck and then nuzzle it like a lover. “You smell delectable my little pet. I do know if I’ll be able to resist ravishing you.” Elodie’s heart nearly stopped. ‘Please God, please! Do not let this creature have his way with me. Save me!’ She hoped desperately that her prayer would be heard. Being raped by this demon would be the final straw for her. “Oh my, you have been such a treat, I forgot my manners.” Letting her wrists go, the demon stepped back a couple feet and bowed mockingly in her direction. “My name is Akito Duri.” He grabbed her right wrist and pulled her towards him. He raised her hand to his mouth as if to kiss it and then with a speed Elodie had never seen bit hard into its soft white skin. Elodie screamed at the top of her lungs and tried to pull away, only to cause herself more pain. She collapsed to her knees whimpering. Duri released her hand from his mouth and kissed it gently. “There, now you have my mark. Isn’t it lovely?” The admiration in his voice for his own perverse action made her stomach heave. “Oh now dearest stop that nonsense. We do not need a mess.” Once gain he lifted her to her feet. Elodie tried to resist him, but instead of earning freedom, she received a hard blow to the side of her head, knocking her unconscious. ‘I’m sorry Hakkai. Was he last thought to pass through her mind before it went dark.
Duri lifted the lovely young girl and threw her over his shoulder. As he walked back through the house towards the front door he knocked pictures from the walls, flipped the little table in the hallway over and left claw marks on the walls. He wanted to make sure if anyone came to investigate, they would automatically assume that his beautiful prize had been eaten by a demon.
Without a second glance back at the small cottage where he claimed his prize Duri vanished into the woods with Elodie slung over his shoulder.
