Stepbrother Dearest

Ashley's POV

Hours after I slept, I heard a loud noise from my sleep. I was pissed off but still didn't wake up because I was so exhausted. I kept on hearing voices screaming and running. It felt like everywhere was upside down . What was in my head was I had a horrible nightmare,it made me scared, so I jumped off bed realizing the loud sound was an emergency siren.

"what's going on?" I asked myself. I was panicking with sweat all over my forehead. From the balcony I could see many houses in the city, being at the upper level of the mansion. I heard and saw people screaming and running. I shook as I stood,my body began to shiver.

I had no idea about what to do.I ran to my mom's room. I knocked about three times, yelled her name but she was still sleeping. I burst through the door , the fact that nobody was awake with the noises and chaos that was going on really pissed me off.

"Mom! Wake the fuck up" I screamed, as I barged into her room.

She woke up spontaneously like she was in shock.

"Why would you wake me up, banging on the door like that?" She panicked as she held her chest, breathing heavily.

Her phone was ringing. I was very anxious to hear what the call was about since It was the security that had called.she picked it up and put it on a loudspeaker.

The security's voice was breaking like he was also in a panic, it made my heart race even faster, to be very honest my heartbeat could actually compete with a moving train. He finally broke the news, "Vampires are on the loose!".

My mom tapped my dad to wake up.

"Vampires are attacking the city" she screamed as she was trembling in fear.

My dad's brows narrowed as he jumped off the bed, " what did you just s…?" ," Vampires are attacking the city!!", she said, cutting him off.

Not so long after, we heard noises at the gate, "they-they-they're here" my dad said in fear.

He hurried to Bran's room to get him. We all stayed together in my parent's room racking our heads on what to do. Then my dad suggested he should carry Bran while my mom should take Alan through the back door at the kitchen while they go find somewhere secure for us all.

The Vampires have been attacking the city of Guerrero for a long time now, killing humans countlessly and our mayor himself had been captured and taken away as a slave, so we aren't under a shield or protection.

" Hide in the closet, we want to look for a safe place,we are coming by very soon to take you with" my dad said with a very sad and tense look.

"No," I shouted in fear. Luckily,the door was soundproof so I didn't attract the Vampires' attention. "Sweetheart, we don't have an option here," my mom said as she was weeping.

I had never in my life felt that heartbroken, it felt like my whole world was coming to an end. I felt like that was the last time I was ever going to see all of them. I went to my baby brother Alan and kissed his forehead as tears rolled down my cheeks and I hugged bran telling him I love him so much.

My parents watched me as I entered the closet. My mom kissed my forehead, " baby I'll come for you I promise", she said,as she closed the closet. I heard them as they were tiptoeing and whispering till I could no longer hear them again.

I was just really hoping and waiting for my parents to come and take me along. I had lots of thoughts as I was hiding in the closet. About ten minutes later, I heard them forcefully barge into the room. I was really hoping a miracle could happen that could make me just disappear.
