Cruel Moon

Chapter Four

Hana slowly walked home, her mind wandering to the card in her skirt pocket. He'd given her his number, saying to message him if she saw anything suspicious. Why? Because apparently he and his partner were investigating the Scrimshaw disappearance. They were with the FBI. He’d asked a lot of questions, some of which were a little odd… Like why did he ask her if she’d seen anyone exhibiting “abnormal behavior, border lining anima-

BAM!

Before Hana's butt made contact with the ground strong arms wrapped around her and she was pulled against a warm, hard body. 

"Are you okay?" She slowly peeked up, starring at the specimen through her bangs. Sweet baby Jesus.

Alert! Alert! Greek god! Alert! Alert!

His dark eyes bore into hers, neither of them moving. The world around her seemed to stop and nothing else mattered but the male before her. 

"Um, hi." 

Hana blushed. "H-Hi." 

The corner of his mouth twitched as did Hana's. "I'm Rodriguez, but I go by my last name, Maya."

"I'm Hana."

Silence reigned once again and she oddly didn't mind at all. His arms tightened around her, pulling her closer against his massive, rock hard body. 

"God, you're beautiful." 

Hana smiled. "Thank you, Maya." 

He smiled gently, his eyes filling with awe. But just as quick as the awe appeared, it vanished and he shook his head, stepping back. 

"Uh, um, do you mind if I walk you home." He looked up at the darkening sky. Wow, how long were we staring at each other? "It is getting pretty late and you shouldn't by yourself." 

Hana couldn't speak so she merely nodded.

-------------------------

God, she's gorgeous. The small female walked close beside him, getting close every time a cold wind blew against them. Maya was unaffected but his small human was. Whoa, slow down, she isn't yours. But by God, he wanted her to be. So badly. Is this human lust or my beast? Ever since he turned he couldn't distinguish human impulses from beast impulses, like right now. He had the need to f**k her. To bury his hard c**k deep inside her and find release.

He clenched his jaw. You could kill her... That seemed to do the trick. Hana paused before a pathway that led up to a small, quaint, one-story home. Maya studied it, feeling a small twinge of pain in his heart. It reminded him of the home he’d once had...

"Thank you." 

Maya, snapping back from reality, looked to Hana and bowed his head. "You're very much welcome." 

She then turned and walked to her door. Maya turned as well, making his way to his home.

"I am in so much trouble." 

Astrid shrugged and dropped the bloodied machete into her duffle bag, zipping it up. The two brothers were, well, dead. Astrid couldn't take the chance of them not being human so yeah, she killed them. It's not like anyone would miss them. They were foster kids, so there was no one to grieve. War brings about countless innocent casualties… She chuckled at her inner thoughts. That dumb phrase was something Drake used to always say. But Astrid never agreed. 

Astrid walked over to a tub filled with water and poured the powder sulfuric acid. When the two substances mixed they bubbled and rumbled, making Astrid giggle a bit. She always found herself fascinated by the reactions two separate substances had when mixing. With a content sigh, Astrid proceeded to throw in the chopped up pieces of the boys into the bath and once done scrubbed the dank shack clean of her existence. After that, she drained the tub and poured bleached down the drain and used the bleach to clean the porcelain bath. Nobody has to know my business.
