Short Story: Bloodline by hfinest1(m): 6:23pm On Oct 10, 2017
Story Title: Bloodline

It was exactly 01:15am when Chuks woke up to ease himself. His eyes coincidentally fell on the table clock beside bed and saw that it was a quarter past 1am. He had barely put his legs on the floor when he heard his closet door creak open. The room was dark and the eerie silence was really defeaning Chuks. His mansion now seemed unsafe, and for some strange reason, he felt a chill run down his spine. His hands and feet went cold immediately he saw a figure float out of the closet. It was Linda, or something that looked like Linda, wearing a white flannel gown soaked with blood dripping from her neck, which barely hung loosely on her head. Her hands were cut off from the shoulder, and her legs, amputated at the knee region.
Chuks was scared to his bones as she floated closer and closer to him in what seemed like the 'slow motion' we see in movies.

Chuks had picked Linda up at a club one friday night he had been out clubbing with friends. He had taken special interest inher due to her gentle, shy, naive composure. She was so naive that she kept avoiding his touch, which made him even more intersted in her. He made his way into her head, as he does with girls he picks up. She had told him that was her first time of going to a club or even an all night party, as her mum is always very watchful of her, and she seied the oppurtunity to come to the club that day, since she was now staying on campus in the university. She had also told himthat she was a virgin and that her mother had called her earlier that evening and had warned her not to go out that night due to some bad dream she had, but she had totally ignored her mother's warning with claim of "what could probably go wrong?". If only she knew what the night had in store for her...
Chuks had been able to lure the 19years old virgin to his apartment with his charming looks, smile and passionate words of ;love.
She had fallen for him, but still had her senses ontact and was not ready to break her golden rule of 'abstinence from sex till marriage', even afetr Chuks had tried all the seduction tricks he knew to lure her to bed. After trying for quite a long while, and realising he didn't have all night, he decided to go fetish. He retrieved, from a box tucked safely under his pillow, a ring his witch-doctor had had given to him to use in occassions like this and used as directed, and in no time, Linda was all over him, clothes flew around, and he made her his at about a quater past 1am. He took away her dignity, he defiled her. After the vile act, he made a call.
"it's ready", He said to the caller and dropped the call. In less than thirty minutes, an elderly man dressed in an all red attire arrived at his house and they took the sleeping Linda into Chuks' secret room where the ritual was performed within a very short time, but unknown to Chuks, this time wasn't going to be like the other times he had done this to other girls, as Linda was a special child.
If only he had kniown that Linda's bloodline was not like the other girls he had used for his money rituals. If only he had known that Linda's ancestors were gods and kings...

She kept soaring nearer to Chuks, with her eyes all red and anger on her face. She got closer to Chuks and in a quick blink, a very sharp object like a dagger appeared in front of Chuksand he let out a ear piercing scream, as the dagger pierced straight into his heart and he jerked up from his sleep, sweating profusely.
He sighed, knowing it was only a nightmare. As he looked towards his bedside table, his eyes fell on the table fell on the table clock, which read 01:15am and his closet door began to creak open so slowly. He froze as he felt his whole body go cold, and his eyes opened wide like they were about to pop out of their sockets.
