“In high school?” he squeaks. “You’re still mad about that?”
“Yes, Nial. I’m still mad about that.”
“Fuck,” he whispers, glaring at Garrett. “I told you to back off, man.”
“Shut the fuck up, Nial. What do you want, Michel. Money?”
Scoffing, I glance at Eli. “You don’t have any, Garrett. Why would I ask for money when I’ve had to bail you out?”
He rubs his forehead. “You set all of this up. With Richmond, these guys. Fuck you, Michel.”
“Oh, no, thank you. I don’t fuck trash.”
Syn snorts a laugh. “Do you eat trash though?”
“On occasion. It develops the palette.”
“Yeah, it’s like junk food,” Midnight says. “Sometimes you gotta have it.”
“I’m still developing mine,” Eli says. “Variety is important to figure out what you like most.”
“What the fuck are you guys talking about?” Ben asks, his body trembling.
“Food, obviously,” I say with a devious smile. “I’ve been craving this meal for ages.”
Nial glances around nervously. “Uh, there’s no food here.”
“Incorrect,” Syn says. “There’s a goddamn buffet.”
Garrett lurches forward, lunging for the door, which just makes us laugh.
“You can scream.” I straighten the cuff of my shirt before slowly unbuttoning my jacket. “They won’t hear you.”
Eli removes his jacket too. “Nope.”
Garrett takes a swing at Yves, who grabs his fist and squeezes it until the bones crack and Garrett screams in pain. Ben and Nial huddle, terrified, against the wall. I reach down and lift Garrett by the collar of his shirt, high above my head until he’s pressed against the wall.
“For four years of my life, you made me the target of all your evil jokes. You hurt me, humiliated me, and made me hate this place. You almost won.” I lower him enough to meet his eyes. “But I had a fighter in me. I knew I could take my revenge. You tried to ruin Neubrook, and me, and who knows how many other people you terrorized? But that stops now, Garrett Landon. This is my swan song, and tonight, you are my masterpiece.”
“Wh-what? What are you gonna do?”
Eli laughs behind me. “Tell him what you’re gonna do, Michel.”
I smile and widen my lips to show off my fangs. “I’m going to feast.”
And then I attack, plunging my teeth into his neck, but only biting enough to alarm him. I plan to play with my food tonight.
“Shit!” Ben yells, running for the door, but he’s quickly caught by Syn, who tosses him in Eli’s direction.
I watch with pride as Eli attacks, drawing blood quickly as Ben screams and kicks his legs. Nial pees himself as I stalk closer, watching Garrett grabbing his bloody neck before looking at me.
“No. Please. I’ll do anything you want.”
“I want you to die.”
“What the fuck is this? What are you?”
Rolling my eyes, I tilt my head. “Obviously, I’m a vampire.”
