Dark Form – Chapter 13 – My Sims Love Affair

Spread the love

After Lizzie left, I wasn’t sure what to do.

I sat there hyperventilating; unable to believe that I could have possibly been the cause of such a heinous crime.

Nervous, scared energy began to fill me so much that I had to find something to do with myself…I got up and started pacing the room.

I didn’t know what the protocol was for a situation like mine.

Do I turn myself in? Or wait for the police to find me?

I gave some serious thought to reporting myself. I even dialed the police station…

…but as soon as someone answered, I hurried and ended the call.

I knew that if my secret was out…it would completely ruin my already strained relationship with Lizzie. She was my only friend.

But then I realized that it was already over. I couldn’t continue to face her…knowing what I might have done to her husband.

I had to be smart about this whole thing. Getting myself arrested didn’t seem like the best way to solve anything. Even if I was locked away…I’d still be a danger to everyone around me.

My bigger issue was how to keep what happened to Dray from ever happening again. I needed to find an alternate food source to keep my dark side at bay. I pulled out the book that I had taken from the library.

I scoured the pages looking for any and everything that could help me.

It took a while, but I eventually stumbled upon something that gave me hope…I could possibly be cured.

The book didn’t go into much detail, but it gave me another direction that I could go in for further research.

There were two things that I needed to do… the first was to search online and order as many books as I could find about the vampire virus. I’d even pay for overnight delivery to get them as quickly as possible.

The second thing I needed to do was to settle my mind and try to find out for sure if I was actually the one that murdered my best friend’s husband.

I knew that it was risky, but I waited until nightfall, retraced my steps from the night before, and returned to the alley.

For all I knew…the police could still be watching the area, but I hoped that going back to the alley would help to jar my memory of what happened that night.

I looked around, but there was no evidence to show that the area had ever even been a crime scene. I expected to see crime scene tape…police markers – anything to indicate that a life had been lost. I began to think that maybe this was the wrong alley.

My thoughts were interrupted by a voice behind me, “Miss…is everything okay?”

My heart almost completely stopped beating; thinking that it was a police officer behind me. Surely he’d wonder why I was standing there staring down a dark alley.

My breathing came in short ragged successions as I attempted to gather myself in order to reply. “I…I…I’m fine, thanks.”

The guy stepped forward. “Don’t you know that it’s dangerous to walk down dark side streets alone at night?”

I finally figured that this wasn’t a police officer. I was now a bit irritated by his intrusion. “How do you know that I’m not the threat?”

“Maybe you are, but is it cool if I walk with you anyway? You know…just to make sure you stay safe?”

I couldn’t believe that this guy was able to sneak up on me. I was sort of missing my ability to hear heartbeats. I wanted him to leave me the hell alone, so I turned around to tell him in a not-so-nice way, “Why the hell do you –”
