Fergus, wanting nothing more than to sink his fangs into Cullen’s smug face, forced another playful smile. "Oh, really? Sounds scary. But you might not live to see that day, Cullen."
He then created a diversion for Cullen. "You seem a little... unsteady on your feet. Maybe you should lay off the... whatever it is you’re on."
Cullen’s seemed confused, his eyes widening in shock. He turned to his legs to see if he indeed was stepping on something and found that he wasn’t. Hence, he turned back to Fergus but before he could retort, Fergus, with lightning speed, pushed him back with a single, well-placed shove.
Cullen, who was completely unaware of the monstrous strength he was up against, went sprawling backward like a domino toppling over, landing with a comical yelp that echoed through the room.
Fergus couldn’t help himself. A fit of laughter that was loud and unrestrained, bubbled up from his chest. He doubled over, clutching his stomach with tears welling up in his eyes. It was just too perfect.
Here he was, a powerful ancient vampire hiding in the body of a small child, being threatened by a delusional, weak excuse for a werewolf.
The irony was delicious.
Cullen, who was now red-faced and sputtering, scrambled to his feet.
"Why, you...!"
He lunged towards Fergus, ready to strike, but before he could reach him, a bloodcurdling scream roared in the night air. It was a woman’s voice begging for help.
It was a sound Fergus loved. Something bad was happening. Ah– the delicious scent of blood was in the air.
The first scream was followed by another, then another– all music to Fergus’s ears. And then, the sounds of banging on doors and struggles reverberated from every direction in the pack.
He watched Cullen freeze, forgetting about attacking him. "What’s that?" He asked with an urgency that was blending into fear.
"Why don’t you come closer and ask?" Fergus snarled at him, but he guessed he probably looked pathetic instead of intimidating in Liam’s body.
Cullen hissed, definitely taking Fergus’s threat as an empty one. "Kids!" He groaned and strolled to the window where he cautiously peeked through the curtains to check the situation of things outside.
Fergus crossed his hands in front of him, hoping the situation was bad. Very very bad.
When Cullen’s eyes widened with a fear Fergus found utterly delicious and he scrambled towards Fergus, he knew the situation was as bad as he wanted.
Beautiful!
Fascinating!
Pleasurable!
Ah– VIOLENCE!
"Liam! Help me barricade the door!" Cullen practically shoved Fergus towards the furniture, his voice filled with a fear that warmed Fergus’s dark heart.
Fergus, remained rooted to the spot as a cruel smile played on his lips. Cullen’s terror was music to his ears. "What’s happening?" he asked in a sickeningly sweet voice, feigning cluelessness.
Cullen lunged for him, his eyes wild. "Don’t be dumb, you little—! We need to block the damn door! Do you hear them? They’re coming for us!"
