ICHABOD episode 3/4

👹 ICHABOD👹
Cursed For A 1000 Years

Episode 3

He had been sleeping peacefully quietly and peacefully in his be-d when he immediately felt this sudden rush and fear in his spine. quic-kly he woke up. He couldn’t explain the way his mind was rising and falling but he knew that she was in danger.

Again…as always! No matter how much the other p@rt of him wanted to ignore this danger signal, his human side would never let him rest without doing anything.

He gro-an ed. It was so damn difficult being two people at the same time but he couldn’t help it. It didn’t take him much time to figure out where and what was happening

. Just to relax and pay attention was all that his other side required. His ears caught the cry for help and his br@in calculated the distance. All that was left was for his super-fast legs to carry him there in a flash!

She was on the road quite alright and where she was in her car, it was just a matter of time before the trailer crushed her down. quic-kly, he got into the truck, he tossed the driver to the other side as if he weighed nothing, then he pu-ll-ed the stuck br@kes with his might.

When they were finally out and he got down from the truck, watching both the mother and child afar off, from the darkness, it took all his human strength from rushing towards her. The connection was too much.

His beastly side could catch the delicious scent of her blood from where he stood-he could rush towards her now and bite her to regain his human strength, it was too easy.

. He had traveled for 1000 years throu-gh centuries and continents for this moment and he had it but his other nature, his human side…or at least what was left of his human nature was only looking at the poor innocent girl in her hand…who would take care of her?

How would his stupid human nature still care for her with all the thousands of years that he had lived with…

His head was boiling as his beast side and human side fought each other-within him but far away, he picked the sound of a police siren and taking one last look at the mother and child, he left in a flash as he had come.

“If you had listened to everything I told you that night, all this wouldn’t have happened. You are so stubborn and you need to start thinking not only about you but your daughter and….”

Vivian kept on and on where Harmony set in the living room of her mansion, starring into the cup of tea that the cook had brou-ght her. She was quiet and abs£ntminded. She was exhausted. Being so close to death had filled her with an emptiness that she hadn’t felt in a while.

The TV proudly displayed the picture of her and Tracy while the news man recounted the story of what had happened the previous night but as always, with a bit of exaggeration. That was the problem of being a celebrity, no p@rt of your life would be hidden.

“Are you sure you can stay here alone?”

“I can stay here Vivian. Don’t worry about me.” Harmony replied.

Her friend shrugged and then frowned. “You said you saw another man at the scene?”

Harmony nodded. She was tired of thinking about it. “I could have sworn he saved our lives but it baffles me why he didn’t bother to say hi or to even say anything.”

“Maybe he was afraid that the police might think he had anything to do with the near-accident.” Vivian replied. “You said he got into a movie vehicle, how is that possible? You sure he wasn’t a ghost?”

Harmony sighed and stood up. “I have seen lots of things Vivi but I am not sure about this one.” She said, walking towards the door.

Minutes later, she was in the shower as the cold water washed down her n-ked b©dy. The previous night kept flashing in her mind. The figure….that figure, she had seen it before but that was many years ago or perhaps it was just her imagination but how could she have dreamt so many times about a man and how could such a man now materialize in a real life? Was it even possible?

The dreams she had had about him were the same. Everything in the dream was the same and it was on that story that she had become a famous actress. She had titled the movie “DOUBLED” and ever since the re-lease of the movie which had been based on the series of the dreams she had had about this strange man, it had st©pped.

Right from when she was young, she knew there was this man who had always appeared only in her dreams but that was just in the dream …the reason why she was a super star was because most of the movies she had produced had been a picture of what she had experienced in her dreams. She had never really believed in the so called ‘guardian angel’ theory or ‘dream man’ theory or that there was something called, being two people in one b©dy-that is a good side and an evil side. Everything that mattered to her was just Tracy and nothing else. But maybe she should think about the possibility of all this being unreal.

Michael was the father of her child and they were not really together anymore. He was a football coach and he was ba-rely around. They were not really divorced but they were not really together either. He actually never wanted Tracy but she made it clear to him that she was keeping Tracy. The last time she had seen him was about four months ago, other times was on the TV.

She turned off the tap and stepped out of the shower while tying her white towel around her. Since that night, she hadn’t gotten any sleep. Instead, she had spent the night, looking at Tracy while she sle-pt peacefully without any worry in her mind.

“Babe, I will back later, need to get some things at the mall.” Vivian shouted from the living room.

“Okay.” She replied, cleaning her b©dy with her towel before ru-bbing on someb©dy cream and finally jumping into her be-d.f

She knew she was supposed to at least wear something, but she l@ywith just the towel on her. She was that tired.

Holding the remote control in her hand, she skimmed throu-gh the channels on the flat screen. She did this repeatedly until her eyes bec@m£ heavy and she fell asleep, with just the towel on.

IN HER DREAM

“You are so beautiful…” He said to her and she laughed. They were both in the dark together but they were on the be-d and covered in a blanket. She was wra-pped in his arms as he k!$$£d every p@rt of her b©dy.

. Her b©dy responded with every t©uçh. She could smell his masculinity and it was turning her on. She wanted him really badly.

“You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.” He whispered into her ears, ni-bbling on her ear lobe and she shivered with plea-sure. His voice sounded like music to her ears, she was having the best time of her life. She turned her head and he leaned in. She could feel his breath on her n£¢k. She has never felt so safe and happy. He kept playing around, breathing into her ears and she kept laughing…she arched against hin, while he sli-pped a hand around her to br@ce her weight…

“no, no, no…”

She could hear him say to himself as if in a struggle.

“What is it?” She asked, unsure of what was happening. Instead, he turned her around f0rç£fully, his wild scent now filling her nose and she shut her eyes, still not sure of what was happening. He wouldn’t hurt her…she thought.

But then he reared back and she opened her eyes just in time to see his shimmering red eyes and his teeth…..

She scre-med.

She woke up!

👹ICHABOD👹 –
Cursed For A 1000 Years

Episode 4

Ichabod woke up where he was. His eyes hurt terribly and he snapped them shut.

The older man was pu-lling down the curtains on the windows of his room, darkening the room.

“You awake?”

He gro-an ed and opened his eyes.. “What time is it?”

“It’s 12pm.” His butler replied.

“Wow, the time is long gone.” He stated, now standing up and pu-lling the robe from the near-by chair, he put it on while waiting for his butler to pu-ll down all the curtains in the big room.

“What time did you get in last night?” The butler asked.

He walked to the keyboard while wearing his robe before sitting down

. “I can’t remember, was around some minutes past four I think. “ He replied, his mind was vague, it usually happened like that but everything would come back later.

“How are you?”

He sighed, Adams liked asking him so many questions
. He didn’t blame him though, he was after all concerned.

will be fine. “ He replied, his eyes roamed around the be-d and they fell on the ring that was just on the stool beside him. He picked it up and put it in his pocket.

“You don’t have to darken all the room, I need some fresh sunlight.” He said, standing up. “Since I have my ring with me, I will keep ‘him’ away.

“Well, okay.” Adams replied, pu-lling up one of the curtains.

He could feel Adams watching him as he was walking out of the room. But then he st©pped, not being in his ‘other’ form didn’t st©p him from s-en-sing that Adam had something to say to him.

“Are you okay?” He asked turning around to look at the old man who shook his head.

“What is it?”

“When you woke up this morning, your eye were red all of a sudden before the pupils took over.”

He felt like someone had just sl@pped him and he could feel ‘odins’ joy and excitement de-ep down. His evil side was taking over…no, he couldn’t allow that.

**

He poured himself some drink from the bottle of wine at the bar before sitting down on the stool. Damn it! He was running out of time and ‘Odin’ was getting stronger de-ep down in the darkness of his heart. He couldn’t risk that and yet, he couldn’t meet her right now. He was too vulnerable and his human nature was getting weaker, the more time he spent ap@rt from her, the more weaker he got, and the more impatient ‘Odin’ would become and that wasn’t a good thing.

This curse was becoming unbearable for him and he could hear the voice of his beastly side….in his head.

“You know I’m still gonna win as I’ve always won”

“Shut up odin! You are cursed. This is my time and you are not going to win this time.”

“How are you going to do that? Not with the way you are getting weaker and weaker every day. “

“No, I am stronger than you are, I am going to repel you, I am going to overcome. “

“Well, we shall see about that. You do know I’m in,side you right? We are one. I am your other half and you are nothing without me, Ichab.”

“Shut up! Shut up!”

There was a sinister laughter from ‘Odin.’

“If you want to be angry with anyone be angry with yourself, if you had not been stupid as to piss off a powerful witch and kill her daughter with grief, maybe you wouldn’t have been cursed with me!”

“I didn’t kill her. Tanya loved me and I loved another, she died of heartbreak. I didn’t kill her…”

“Story story … we are running out of time, let’s do what we have to do on time, the salvation of one is the downfall of the other remember?”

Unable to take it any longer, he took the ring from his pocket. He was sweating and his che-st was rising and falling as he could still hear Odin’s laughter in his head. Shutting his eyes, he plunged the ring into his f!nger, silencing him and finally being able to breathe.

“Son of a bit-ch.” He said aloud. He should have put on the ring in the first place but now, Odin was right. He needed to ask fast but, getting closer to this woman would also mean bringing Odin closer to her….Damn it! How would you save yourself from yourself….?

“Have you been fighting with yourself again?”

He turned around as he sp©tted Adams, coming in. He walked closer to pour himself a drink. Even though he had kidnapped the poor man on his arrival, they had become good friends.

“Odin is still disturbing you isn’t he?” Adams asked.

“Yea, that bastard is toying with my head.”

“Tell me about the story of when you got the curse…” Adams said, sipping from his cup.

“Well,,,,” He started, his mind drifting to the incident of a thousand years ago-

“It was supposed to be the happiest day of my life but somehow, it bec@m£ the saddest day of my life. I had just been married to Denis, the love my life. She was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Perhaps, it was the beauty of her dark skin but there was just something about her that I know I would never find in any woman. She was the one for me and I was the one for her. Her hair was full and black, I loved curling it around my f!nger.” He smiled sadly and continued.

“She was the daughter of a nob©dy but she was a courageous woman. I found her in the woods while coming back from a war.

. She was R@p£d in the woods, I later found the men and killed them so I brou-ght her home. She was so beautiful and strong. She made everyone laugh, she was so kind and she advised me so many times. We bec@m£ friends, it was easy for me to fall in love with her. I never knew my father had promised another girl to me in marriage before he died. Her name was Tanya, she was the daughter of a powerful witch in our kingdom. She wasn’t really my type, she was too proud and condescending. Her mother did my father a favor before he got the throne, so to repay the favour, she asked that her daughter be wedded to me. I got to know of this shortly after I fell in love with Denis. I had to tell her the truth, that I didn’t love her. I asked her to just be friends. It was on my wedding day that the witch c@m£ to destroy everything, she killed every of my guest and then cursed me…with two personalities-a human by day and a vampire by night.” He st©pped as Adams poured him more drink….

“What happened to Denis?”

He sighed heavily, feeling tears burn his eyes as he remembered that horrible day.

“I killed her….I killed her with my two hands….I didn’t know what I was doing…the curse was so strong….”

TBC….

Now you get that Ichabod is half human, half vampire and how it got to that. So nob©dy should tell me they still don’t un-derstand oo.🤣🤣
