Which Do I Choose- A Vampire or A Fallen Angel?: FOUR.

"Good morning, Master." I said, as I passed him on the way to the kitchen.

"Well, Mistress Melly." I said and stopped me. "I like the new attitude, and how pretty you look! What brought this on?"

"Thanks, I guess...I want to make the best of this, and it really isn't that bad."

"Do you like the guys? You need to wed in a few months."

"I really like Mister Christian, like, I really do." I felt my face getting red because I was thinking about him. Every time I thought about Christian, I blushed uncontrollably. "I hated Mister Alexander, but after last night, I sort of...I'm sort of warming up to him."

"Well good. I think Alexander is best for you, but I must be going. How does a late lunch sound? Meet your boys in the dining hall at 1:30."

"Okay by--" I didn't even get to say goodbye- he was gone in a flash.

As I was on my way out to the kitchen, an arm snaked around my waist. "Come here." The voice said, and he pulled me into the coat closet. With the lights off, I couldnt see who it was. His lips crashed against mind and he pulled me close. He was kissing me with lust and need- roughly. The more I hoped it was Christian, the more I willingly kissed him back. When I wrapped my arms around him...there were no....wings. My hands slid up and down the wall trying to find a light switch.

"ALEX!" I screamed, when I clicked the lights on. "What are you trying to do!?"

"It's mister Alexander, and what do you think I was trying to do."

"You are so fucking...ugh, that was so rude of you to just pull me in there with you and kiss me like that!"

"Like what?" He smirked. "Like this?" His lips fell upon mine again.

"Mister ALexander, please..." I pushed him off of me and left the closet.

"Melly, you KNOW that if it were that damned fallen you wouldn't have stopped."

I stopped, and looked back at him, but I couldn't say anything. All I knew was that Alexander was jealous...of Christian.

"This is no way to win me over." I said to him.

He came toward me "I know that deep deep down..." He lightly kissed my neck several times, "you want more of me- whether you choose to admit it or not."

"You would like to think so, I'm sure." I said to him.

"I know so." He said and walked away from me.

"Good-morning to you, Melly."

"Hello Mister Christian," I said sadly.

"Is every thing okay? Alexander looked rather...pissed."

"Yeah, everything is..fine I guess."

"Want me to get you breakfast?" He offered.

"No I don't think I'm too hungry right now..."

"Are you sure that everything is okay?"

"Yeah, I think I'm just going to take a walk outside.

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

"Why are you so mad?"

"It must be fucking easy for you, playing the good guy."

"Wh-"

"It seems that every time I fuck up, you show up just in time to make me look worse. I don't have to justify what happened, to you, of all people."

"Look, you're just jealous that she likes me."

"Yeah, I just wish you would tell her the truth. You know, I guess looks are deceiving because you certainly are no angel. Leave my side, Fallen."

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

Outside, near the rear of the castle, I noticed that there were gardens. There were many excotic flowers all either insanely bright or spiny. They were beautiful, and there were willow trees, and fruit trees. There were even bees and other tiny insects about.

I walked a bit farther and came to a pond. The pond had a bridge the whole way across it. I walked upon it and peered into the midnight blue waters. I saw my reflection. As I was standing there, I pondered about my previous life. I missed Nick coming through the door and giving me a bear hug. I missed mom's obnoxious laughter when something wasn't really funny. I missed Riley... I know it's wrong to miss an ex boyfriend. A lying, cheating ex-boyfriend, but I couldn't help it. As I thought about Riley, I went from missing him, to feeling anger. I let him minipulate my life so much..."

"Hello dear."

"Christian, hello."

"What are you thinking, miss?" He kissed my hand.

"This place is beautiful. I'm glad you're here." He put his arm around me and I leaned against him."

"Well, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.."

I heard a loud commotion come from the mansion. I turned and saw a very very very pissed off Mister Alexander eyeing Christian, coming at him quickly.

"Melly, go away from here, now."

I began to run away. I looked over my shoulder and saw Alex slam his fist into Christian's chest. They were physically...fighting."

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

"BOYS, ENOUGH!!!! NOW WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?"

"MASTER, I am sick of this damned angel getting in my way of Melly."

"Oh fucking come on, Alex. She was out here the entire time, you could have easily made it to her before me."

"The two of you are handling this like children. I don't want to hear it anymore. I don't want to ever see this again."

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

I sat down at the dining table and waited patiently for my misters to join me. The first one to enter the room was Alex.

"Hi." I said to him.

"Wow, you acknowledged me."

"Oh my God, Alexander...you are so IMMATURE!"

Christian entered the room. I saw him shoot a glare at Alexander, then he kissed me on the cheek and sat down.

A maid put out plates on the table- except for Alexander's of course. For him, she retreived a glass of blood.

"So miss, you know about us, what about you?" Christian said.

"Yeah Melly, why did you decide to kill yourself." chimed Alex.

"I am...so.." I paused and began to tear up. "shocked...that you even..." I started crying "would ask me that." I got up from the table and ran to my room. Moments later, there was a knock at the door.

"Who is it..?" I sobbed.

"It's Christian, may I come in?"

I opened the door and fell into his strong arms. He carried me over to my bed and gently set me down.

He had his arm around me as a cried into my pillow.

"It'll be alright," He brushed the hairs out of my face. "It's okay sweetheart." I felt myself begin to calm down.

"I'll tell you...why I tried to ki--"

"No." He said, "Not until you're ready. Not until you're comfortable with this."

Alexander entered the room.

"Melly could I please talk to you...alone?"

"NO!" I exclaimed and clutched Christian.

"She doesn't want to see you Alexander, maybe when she stops crying her eyes out, she will merely tolerate talking with you."

"Melly, I need to talk to you. Please. Don't let this fallen get in the way of my sincerity."

"BOTH OF YOU!" I yelled. "Just LEAVE!"

I was getting so sick of their bickering and arguing back and forth. I felt like I was their mother instead of their...potential...wife.

For the bulk of the day, I layed in my bed. When I cried a lot or when I was under a lot of emotional stress, I got sick. After a warm bath, I changed into my night clothes and tried to fall asleep, but I couldn't. Something was telling me that I needed to talk to Alexander.

That was chapter four. I hope you liked it. Where do you want me to go with this story...in Alex's direction or in Christians? Rate and give me feedback.
