Gentle Touch

MELODYS POV.

I had been sitting down for about 4 minutes, until a woman came up to me. She has dark colored hair with dark colored eyes. She wore a red dress with a laced chocker where red diamonds rest and dangled.

"I've never seen your face before" she said, eyeing me down. "But you're a very beautiful girl, if I may say." She complained me, I responded back quickly. "I can say the same to you" I smiled. "Who have you attended my event with?" She asked, her dark eyes piercing into mine.

I started to speak before I got interrupted. "Why are you flirting with her?" The deep voice rumbled, I looked up, it was Roman. "I can't make new friends now?" The woman said looking Roman straight on the eye with a smirk.

Roman sighed heavily, "Melody. This is my sister" my face reshaped into a smile, "oh! Hello, I'm so sorry" I plead. "Your alright pretty girl" she winked. "Aurora. Stop" he growled, his eyebrows tilting down , showing his anger towards his sister.

She smiled before turning towards me, "what's your name, pretty girl?" She said. Her accent thicker than Roman's, it sounded more like an Italian accent. "Melody" I smiled. She hummed in response.

"I'll be right back" Roman said suddenly, staring  into the crowd. Me and aurora looked at each other with a confused expression, we both looked around for what side tracked roman, but there were too many people to tell. Roman handed me a water, as he chugged the rest of the wine in his glass cup and walking off

——-

Roman's pov.
I watched as Melody and my sister talked for a while, before my eye caught Marco at the end of the room, eyeing down Melody before he caught my eyes staring dead at him.
"I'll be right back" I told Melody before placing the cold water into her hands, and drinking the warm liquid in the glass I held.

As I started walking towards Marco, he tried to act as if he didn't see me by walking the opposite way. I quickened my pace, as he quickened his. He ran up the flight of stairs near the bathroom, as so did I, I saw him run into the last room at the end of the hallway. I herd the door slam before i stood in front of the door

"Open the door" I said. No response, I repeat myself before aggressively jiggling the doorknob, "open the fucking door" I said, trying to keep my chill. He knew what he was doing. I gave a good forceful twist to the doorknob before it broke, pushing the door open, I see him standing in the middle of the room.

"Why were you with my girl?" He asked me. I felt my body beat up. "Your girl?" I chuckled. He's funny. "You knew I liked her, no- LOVED her, Since high school, so why would you even try to do this to me? Everyday I came over to tell you about her and how much I loved her." He said in a stern tone.

Me and Marco hand be close almost all our life, until the 11th grade when his father tried to kill mine, because his mother got her head chopped off for stealing one of our crowns for money. Marco didn't hesitate to try and kill me too.

"That is not your girl, she barely knew you. You were just a fucking pervert who wanted to fuck her, because she was one of not many girls who had not been turn into a whore" I said. my eyes flickered.

He smiled at me before pushing me back, I just let it happen as I took a step back. "You think 4 years later maybe she would let me hit?" He laughed. I cut him off, throwing a punch at his jaw. He cried out before falling onto his back, i fell onto him before I grabbed his neck, repeating my steps again. Only this time aiming for his nose. I heard it crack a bit, but I didn't give a care. blood ran down his nose to the side of his cheeks, I kept throwing punches. I ended up stopping a few more punches in. Blood filled his mouth as he spit it onto my suit. Before I could get up off of his body, he punched me in the cheek, I hissed. My fangs popped out of my teeth, My eyes flickered red and my hand flew back to his neck, my nails extended, threatening to Pierce his skin.

"Say something else I'll kill you, right now" I said. My cheek throbbing. "You wouldn't kill your best friend, I know you wouldn't." He smiled, his teeth coated in blood. "You calling me a pussy?" My formal English leaving me as I spoke. He chuckled, his chuckle was all I needed before my nails ripped through through his throat. My other hand coming in contact with his chest, as I scraped his flesh open, showing his raw meats. He immediately screamed as all the contact happened. I stuck my long extended fingernails into his chest, deeper and deeper. Until he wasn't moving anymore.

Which was why I was confused, when I heard screaming once again. My head flew around, facing the door, before making eye contact with the voice.

—————-

Melody's pov.

Me and aurora were talking about Roman and his past, and how sweet he was towards me but so aggressive with others. I was surprised at the things he has said to people before.

"Excuse me I need to use the restroom" I said to aurora before standing up. "I'll show you where it is" she offered leading me to the bathroom. There were fancy mirrors with perfume everywhere. I used the bathroom, touching up my makeup quickly. I waited for aurora to finish using the bathroom also, as I stood outside the bathroom.

"Are you almost done" I asked. Trying to go back so I can have a slice of the cake I had been eyeing down all night. "Oh my lad. Such an impatient girl" she laughed. I heard the toilet flush as I heard a loud scream, aurora looked at me, "are you alright?" She asked. I nodded, "that.. wasn't me" I told her. I heard another yell, it sounded like Roman. The girls around the bathroom whispered, looking around in confusion. Me and aurora stared at each other with ride eyes, before we raced up the flight of stairs, our dress in our hands as we tried not to fall.

I heard another scream, but louder, we raced down the hallway trying to find what room it was. I reached the end of the hallway before peeking my head through the door. My body jolted at the scene. I screamed, staring at the body in Roman's arms. Roman turned his head before dropping the man he held.

My breath felt heavy as the scene got worse. I got better view of the lifeless body. The man's body had a big hole in his suit as blood rushed out of his body, his flesh everywhere as he sat in a pool of his own blood. I looked at the man's beat up face. "MARCO?!" I screamed once again. I heard many feet stomping up the stairs.

I looked up at Roman. All I saw was a monster. "Melody. Love I'm so sorry" he said, he eyes were a bright red as they faded back to a dark green.
His eyebrows knitted together as he was talking to me. I backed up before I looked around.

There was People. Everywhere. Staring at me.

Everyone's lips were moving, just no sound coming out of it. My heart felt heavy. Roman went to grab me, but I back away from him quickly. People rushed to Marco checking for signs of life.  aurora tried to calm me down.   I could hear nothing but buzzing, as I screamed again, and again.

All I heard was Roman's voice yell, he looked worried. "what's wrong with her?!" My face felt warm and my body felt hot. My eyes watering, blurring my vision. My head went blank as I felt my body drop to the ground.
