The Youngest Blade 🔪

Chapter 18 (Kill Me?)

Anastasia Rosaline Blade's POV

I woke up gasping for air.

The horrid memories of what John did to me rushed in my head.

The things he made me do. I shuddered thinking about them.

The last time I ever saw John, was 6 months before mom died.

He had one hand pinning me to the wall,cutting my air supply and the other in my pants.

He was laughing,a sick twisted psycho he was.

I was begging and screaming for help.

I guess God heard my prayers because, dad came home early from work.

He beat John up and threw him out of the house.

John left,but the things he did to me did not leave.

It's always here to haunt me.

The last thing John said to me was "I will be back for you"

I guess that's where my anxiety started.

Dad hugged me and apologized for not being there.

He promised me that nobody would ever hurt me.

I felt safe.

Nothing and nobody would disturb me now I thought.

6 months later, when mom died, dad became a monster just like John.

He broke his promise, he became the thing that caused me pain.

Pain which he promised that nobody would ever inflict on me.

He went from my knight in shining armor to the only thing that haunted me.

I shook my head,clearing it from all those frightening memories.

I looked at my phone and saw the time.

It was a little past 4 in the morning.

I was feeling thirsty.

All my brothers were probably sleeping by now,I could likely sneak down quickly for a glass of water.

I stood up from my bed and limped to my door.

I made sure I remembered which was my room,I didnt want a repeat of what happened with Xander.

I slowly limped down the stairs and headed to the kitchen.

The house was eerily silent and dark.

The only thing I could hear was my ragged breathing.

I went to the kitchen and took a glass a quickly filled it up with water.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming towards me.

I held my breath.

The kitchen was still dark as I did not on the lights.

I was scared. Who was in the house?

"WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE?" somebody shouted at me.

I flinched at the shouting and quickly turned to see who it was.

I could only see a silhouette as the lights were still switched off

I saw the person pointing something at me.

I squinted my eyes in the dark and saw that the person was holding a gun.

I could not breathe.

Was he going to shoot me?

Tears dripped down my face.

I just escaped from my stepdad and now I'm going to die.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" the person shouted as he came nearer to me.

I screamed as loud as I possibly could and threw the glass in my hand at the attacker.

I could only hope that my brothers cared enough to come running when they heard my scream.

I started shivering at the thought that I going to die.

I slide down on to the floor covered my face with my hands.

I heard many footsteps coming towards the kitchen.

I prayed that my brothers were going to save me.

Even if they didn't love me, I hope that because, we had the same parents, they would save me.

Black dots started filling my vision as I could not get any air.

I heard somebody ask what is going on before the lights switched on.

I peeked through my fingers.

The person holding the gun at me was Roman????

Oh my god my brother wanted to kill me and I was still so thristy.

With that I blacked out.
