Chapter 4
Mackenzie lets go of Jenos and lets him hit the floor. “No, no, no! Humans aren’t supposed to fall in love with vampires. We are supposed to hunt each other. Even if it happened in the past, it shouldn’t be done.” She walks to her bed and sits down, remembering her past. “It’s been so long, centuries ago, that I loved anything. Sure it was a cat, but it was still the only thing that I’ve ever loved. The human slaves and servants I’ve had never meant anything to me, so it’s not like I’ve ever had to deal with that problem before. They adored me, but I never felt love towards them. I can’t say I’ve ever felt loved outside of my family.”
“Then perhaps that should be fixed.” Mackenzie looks at Jenos, slowly getting up. “Maybe, you should actually break down that wall and let someone come in.” Mackenzie growls at him. “This doesn’t concern you, human.” He gets to one knee and pulls the darts out of him. “If I was human, I’d still be on the floor unconscious. I’m not completely human, I’m a Dark Mage, I’m above any human.” Mackenzie jumps off the bed and tackles the downed Jenos. “You may be above a human, but you’re still lower than a Vampire.” She jumps on top of him and throws a punch into his face. He takes it, then he pins her with his legs and looks into her light green eyes. “Listen, I don’t want to fight you. I want to help heal your loneliness.” She glares at him. “I like being alone.” Jenos replies, “Then why were you talking to yourself about the possibility of being with another?”
She struggles to escape his grip, but to no avail. “I don’t want to talk about it, now let me go!” Jenos bends up and kisses her. “No. I’m not going to let you go.” He kisses her again and slightly pushes her backwards. “Mmmph!” Mackenzie’s eyes widen with the feel of the kiss. She breaks it off and gasps. “There is a need for something called air you know.” She continues gasping as he lightly laughs. She looks at him and sneers. “Was there any particular reason for that kiss?” He smiles at her. “Simple, I wanted to.”
He kisses her again, but instead of resisting, she enjoys it while she can. She wraps her arms around his neck and pushes back against him. They break for air and Mackenzie rubs against his chest. “So, Jenos, since I know your name, you can know mine. I am Mackenzie Tathal.” He smiles. “Mackenzie… mind if I call you Mac?” She shakes her head. “Go ahead.” She leans backwards, and he lets go of her.
She then grabs him and tosses him towards the wall. “Never let your guard down.” She then fires a fireball at Jenos. He hits the wall, sees the ball coming at him, and dodges it. She smiles at him. “Now that that lesson is over, leave me be.” She summons a gust of wind that blows him out of the room and through the complex. It dumps him outside, and he hears a lock engaging, preventing him from getting back in. “Great, this has been one lovely night…” Jen gets up and walks back home.
From her spot in her room, Mackenzie broods over what happened between them. “I can’t fall in love with a human. I won’t follow in my father’s footsteps.” She sits down on her bed and pulls her legs to her chest. She breathes deeply, trying to forget the feelings she felt when they kissed.
