d took off to six flags. The minute they were in the gate, Ashley had Liz’s hand pulling her to the right and Zach had Taylor’s pulling her to the left.
“You got your cell phone right?” Taylor yelled to Liz.
“Yep, you got yours?” She yelled back.
“Yes, call if you see anything or feel anything.” And then the kids had them separated unaware of the dangers.
“Come on Mom, let’s go. I want to ride the train first.” He tugged at her hand with all his might. When they reached the train he quickly picked their seats and they began their tour of the entire park. Taylor glared at everyone with suspicious eyes. She even looked at the kids there wondering if they would like shape shift into something evil and try to kill them. The train came to a halt and they were off and on their way to the next.
“Roller coaster now. Let’s go mom.” Thank God for the instant pass they bought otherwise the lines would have been miserable. They loaded up and as the roller coaster reached its first fall, Zach closed his eyes.
Ride after ride passed. Taylor tried to enjoy herself but all she could think about was Damien. Just text him. Call him. For once in your damn miserable piece of existence do something for yourself.
The feeling of hands on her shoulders as they flew down the hill startled her and she immediately had ahold of Zach. Then they were standing on the ground. Damien.
“What are you doing here?” She was in shock and yet pleasantly surprised. I missed you.
“We have to go now.” His voice was serious. No I missed you to. No I love you. Nothing.
“But Liz and Ashley?” There was no way in hell Taylor was leaving them. Something in her told her he really wasn’t asking her to nor would he ever leave them either.
“Jarrod has them. They are already back at the hotel.” And just like that they were gone. In a flash they were back in a room. But not their room. A different room. Damien had Zach in his arms and he appeared to be sleeping. Taylor remembered what Damien said about Jarrod being able to make someone sleep.
Taylor turned noting Ashley lying on the couch asleep as well. Jarrod no doubt and his talent at work. There was no way they would be sleeping right now.
“What’s going on now? We just got here.” Both curious and scared to hear the answer that somehow they already knew. Not the specifics but they knew the bad vampires were on their trail.
“They found you already. They would have had you by morning. They were closing in quick. They already know that we have you and are trying to find out where we are taking you both. We have to go. If we hurry, we can get the twins to Regina and then we will leave together.”
“Leave. Are you fucking crazy? I am not leaving; I will not leave my kids.”
“Taylor listen to me, it’s the only way right now. They aren’t tracking the twins, they are tracking you. If they find us, we can’t have them with us.”
His brutal honesty was more than she could bear. As if the world had just ended around her, she felt all of her emotions coming to surface uncontrollably. Stop it Damien. Make em go away.
“Taylor, as much as I would love to toy with your emotions right now, especially more some than others, we don’t have time. We have to go.”
“Damien, they’re near, it’s only a matter of time. They will be here before nightfall not morning.” Jarrod’s words were stern but informational only. As if he was leaving all the decisions up to Damien to make.
“Regina’s now, you take Liz and Ashley, I got these two.” And just like that Liz was picking up cradling Ashley in her arms and looking in Jarrod’s eyes. Taylor could see at that moment that Liz felt for him the same as she felt for Damien.
“Let’s go Sweet, we won’t have much time to drop the kids and go again.” And just like that his hands were on Zach and her, wrapping his arms around them both, they were gone.
“Damien,,,” Taylor whispered as she felt a sudden, overpowering feeling of nausea.
Chapter Eighteen
Everything blurred. Taylor felt light headed. She could hear Damien calling out for Jarrod to take Zach. Everything was spinning around her. She felt his hand on her head pulling it to his chest.
“Just breathe Sweet. It will pass. That’s why you should have closed your eyes. You can’t handle the movement.”
“Mmm.” She couldn’t speak.
“What happened? I thought you two were supposed to keep them safe. What happened? You tell me at once.”
Taylor’s body tightened. She tried to raise her head to turn and look towards the voice so distantly familiar to her. Damien’s hand remained firm.
“They were tracking them. There were a few complications along the way but they are here now.”
