My Bloody Revenge
Chapter 25: Just Thoughts

Laying on the bed Lyra can't help but let her thoughts wander to a darker time in life. It hadbeen a long time since her so called parents came to mind but for some unknown reason, theyinvaded her mind now. Two people who was meant to love and protect her from the evils inthe world. They were supposed to be the ones teaching her about life yet THEY invited pure eviland let him take her. Hating thoughts like these she tries to focus on something else butwithout either Jaze or Lydoran at home there is not much to keep the darkness away. Therewas a time when she as a girl thought Elmir stood for something good. He made her feel normaland loved, not to forget, managed to make the everyday beatings stop. How foolish of her tothink that life was turning for the better when in reality everything turned for the worse.Thinking back on everything Lyra can't help but let a sad laughter slip out. What they did to herwas only the beginning, training if nothing else for what's to come. With the puzzle piecesslowly coming together it wouldn't surprise her if Elmir had most if planned out from start. Theway he protected her and made sure she got an education. Everything was an elaborate planand in the end her parents not only got rid of her but profited from it as well. The big smile andhappy feeling she got when hearing Elmir was coming to get her, that she no longer needed tolive with the people who hated her, made colors fly around her otherwise monotone life andbrightened it beyond imagination. The landing to reality was hard. Painful and unforgettable.Not wishing to dwell deeper into darkness and depression she looks for her phone and throwsaway a text to both Jaze and Lydoran.

*To Jaz, Lyd: Hey guys, how's work?*

She doesn't have to wait more than a minute or two before getting a replay.

*To Mousy: Hectic and not as fun as being home ;P What you up to?*

*To Love: Are you bored, love? Done and on my way back. Hungry?*

*To Jaz: Nothing much. Lyd is done and on the way back. You also done soon? Hungry?*

*To Lyd: How'd you know? Yes, very hungry and happy to not be alone for much longer =D**To Mousy: Good. Need to stay an hour or 2 longer Sorry =( Tell the old man to save me somefood as well.»

*To Jaz: No worries and will do =) See you at home later”

Leaving the phone on the bed she stands up and stretch her body.

“I'm back!"

With a huge smile she leaves her room and rushes down stairs and into the kitchen.

"Welcome back. Everything ok?" she asks while entering.

"It was nothing serious but everything's fixed and I don't have to go in for a few days. Boughtsome pistachio ice cream on my way back.”

Seeing the big tub of ice cream in Lydoran's hand she can't help but jump around like a littlegirl. Blushing a little when he laughs at her antics.

"Thank you." Attacking with a big hug she is thankful for both the ice cream and that he is homeagain.

"Thought you needed some cheering up. So tell me, what you made you so sad today?"

Tilting her head a little she rests her eyes on Lydoran wondering how he always seems to bespot on in his hunshes. Maybe it's a vampire thing she concludes inwardly. "Just thought of myparents and how stupid I was for thinking life would be for the better when Emir came to getme. Never thought such a nice person could turn out to be the cruelest of them all.”

"Nothing stupid with how you were thinking, love. Anyone in your shoes would have thoughtthe same. Come here." Looking into his smiling face and warm silver-grey eyes she smiles backand walks into his out stretched arms. Hiding her face in his chest she hugs him back. Lovinghow warm and cuddly he is. Strangely enough she knows deep inside that neither Lydoran norJaze will ever do what EImir did to her. They are genuine and truly cares for her. It gives anincredible feeling in knowing that.
