CHAPTER 4
A bit at a time, David became aware of his own consciousness. It was a brief and fleeting thing, his senses too muddled to comprehend his surroundings before he once again submerged into fever dreams that were violent and full of blood. He was back in the filthy basement, except this time he was part of the mob helping tear Aaron apart and gnawing his raw flesh off the bone with sharpened teeth. The heavy metallic taste of the young man's blood was a glorious thing, finer than any wine and more potent than any liquor, and he held one of Aaron's severed arms over his head to let the blood flow freely into his mouth. It was heady stuff, it made him feel strong and energized and powerful, capable of taking on the entire world and anything it chose to throw at him. And so, he gleefully joined the cannibalistic orgy, reveling in the sheer carnality of it all. The freedom from civility itself. To be an animal unconcerned with the world beyond the next meal or the next fuck. To fear nothing and know no master, to experience the world unshackled by morals and manners. It was intoxicating and he wanted more.
Slowly and reluctantly, he surfaced from this exquisite fantasy, and parts of the hated real world began to register in his mind. Hard, rough ground beneath him, the stench of refuse, the patter of raindrops on his face and bare torso. Then these were gone again and in their place was a dream of motion and activity.
He was running along a rooftop, surrounded by others he recognized as his fellows. He reached the edge and leapt two stories to the ground, landing easily and without harm, then continued his mad chase through the jungle of concrete and glass that was the city. David and his packmates were in pursuit of something, this much he knew, just as he knew that their target tonight was doomed. It was blood they were after, and they would not be denied. David's pack coordinated by instinct as they spread out along the wet and nearly deserted streets to surround their prey on all sides.
It was a woman of undetermined age, dressed in a long coat and holding an umbrella against the rain. Waiting for a bus or a ride, perhaps. It didn't matter what she was doing or why she was out alone in the city this late at night. Her fate was sealed as soon as the pack picked up her scent.
David emerged from an alleyway and caught sight of her, and his lips pulled away from his teeth as he inhaled and tasted the air. She was already afraid, that was a good thing. Fear made them taste better. From the refuse scattered around his feet he found a discarded piece of piping, which he picked up and banged multiple times on the brick wall of the alleyway, creating a hollow ringing sound that carried through the night air. An instant later, a similar sound reached his ears from across the street as one of his packmates signaled they were also within killing range and the coast was clear. The rapping and banging was quickly picked up by others until it came from all directions, echoing around the empty street. The woman heard the racket and her stress levels spiked by several notches as she tried to identify the source. David could smell it on her. Unable and unwilling to contain his hunger any longer, David stepped out of the alleyway and stalked toward the woman as on all sides his packmates did the same, cutting off every avenue of escape.
The woman clearly saw him, he was finished with hiding. Startled, she turned to walk hastily in the other direction, but another of David's packmates was already there. The woman dropped her umbrella and dug into her purse as the pack emerged from their hiding places and approached from all sides. David himself was the first to reach her just as she produced a small canister from her handbag and brandished it in his face, triggering the button and filling his eyes with liquid fire as she pepper-sprayed him at point blank range. The pain did nothing but make David angry, his other senses were razor sharp and he didn't need his eyes to bring his prey down. Like a pack of wild dogs, David and his fellows converged on the woman as she began to scream, and scream, and scream...
Then this dream/fantasy/memory fell away too as against his will, David's mind groped for consciousness. He didn't want to wake up, this was a fine dream and he wanted to enjoy it to the fullest. But his treacherous brain began to register different surroundings for him, ruining his dreamscape bit by bit. The stench of garbage and salt water replaced the heavenly scent of the woman's terror and blood in the air. His loyal and ferocious packmates disappeared one by one, as did the desolate street they stood on. Gradually, David became aware he was lying on damp ground with the rain drizzling down on him, and he finally forced his groggy eyes open to get a glimpse of his surroundings.
He was in an extremely narrow alleyway, more of a wide space between two brick buildings. David was half buried in refuse and newspaper that clogged the space, and he was both shirtless and shoeless. He tried to sit up and the world swam violently, so he sank back down again, staring up at the narrow slit of dark gray sky he could see above as the rain pattered down on his face. Black plastic bags surrounded him, and the stench of garbage was enough to choke on, as if the residents had been using this space as a personal dumping ground for a long time. Mingled in was the strong smell of polluted seawater that told him he must be somewhere near the waterfront. David couldn't guess if it was early morning or late evening from what he could see, neither did he have any sense how long he might have laid here in this filthy alcove among the coffee grounds and rotting fruit. His memories were fuzzy and dreamlike, seeming more like distant nightmares than anything that could possibly have taken place in the real world.
David's body was a tangled mass of aches and pains, so much so that he couldn't at first determine which part of him was what. His entire throat felt red raw on the inside and swallowing was painful. He brought a shaky hand up to his face and rubbed his eyes, blinking hard several times now that he was committed to the act of regaining consciousness. A second attempt at sitting up was more successful than the first, although the world still swam dizzyingly, and he was forced to steady himself. Then he looked down and realized that his pants were open and there was a
lot
of blood in his lap. The dream of the beautiful woman with a lower set of choppers came back with crystal clarity, and it was with some panic that David yanked his own pants down to inspect himself for damage.
There was no missing it, there was a rough ring of large scarred-over puncture wounds all around the base of his cock and balls. Though still encrusted with blood, the marks looked like they had been healing a while, but it was extremely clear that David was goddamn lucky that he hadn't been gelded. He was naked from the waist up and his chest was likewise smeared with blood that had mostly dried, his feet caked black as if he had been running through the city for days without shoes. Instinctively, David checked for his phone and wallet and found them both missing. He had been picked clean and dumped here.
David found in that moment he had no clue what part of the nightmare real and what part was a fever dream constructed by his own deranged mind. As he sat trying to shake the cobwebs out of his head, he wanted to reject his own memories as being impossible. A hallucination, maybe he had been drugged. Or maybe he had relapsed and the whole thing was the worst case of alcoholic delirium tremens the world had ever seen. But to embrace his memories as truth was to embrace madness, and so he tried to push the nightmares away and focus on his immediate predicament.
