After walking for what felt like forever, we finally arrived at the palace. i looked at the huge building as I let out a sigh. it wasn't a sigh of relief of course, it was a sigh filled with fear, pain, distress, curiosity, and most especially, anxiety. I was scared of what might be waiting for me behind that tall wall. i have heard terrifying stories about the prince on the way. and tales of how he deals with his enemies made me feel dizzy and sick. and something deep inside me makes me feel like killing myself, or rather, I wish I was dead along with mom. but then no! I'm f**king stuck in this messed up world all alone with a crazy bloodthirsty vampire Prince that wants what God only knows from me.
.
"Move!" Blake said in his usual annoyed tone. that's when I noticed that I have been in the same spot since we got to the palace's entrance.
I dragged my feet slowly towards Blake and Zaid. Chloe excused herself awhile ago, i bet she's getting all decked up for the prince. #pathetic. she's in love with the prince to the extent that she could kill for his sake ugh...
"i can't believe we made it. " Zaid said to Blake. I gotta admit, I'm kinda happy for him. I mean, if I wasn't the victim here,then I'll probably help him celebrate. cuz, he's literally the most good looking creature I have ever seen. And it's like he has achieved a lifelong dream. plus, sometimes I just want to say to him, "Zaid, you are better than this, help me escape and we can spend the rest of our lives together, clubbing and doing all those fun stuff." but then, no, he's a vampire. that craves getting a promotion, and i happen to be the only key to that.
.
"hey guys, hope i didn't take too long!" Chloe's Voice echoed from behind. my attention was drawn fully to her and I couldn't help but drool at her. she looked stunning. as it's he was going for some red carpet event. she was wearing a short red dress that exposed her fair legs and hugged her body. her chest was slightly visible. with a pair of killer heels and light makeup,even Zaid and blake couldn't help but stare.
"are you guys done staring?" Chloe voiced out clearly annoyed, but the guys kept ogling at her ughh. "guys we need to get to the prince ASAP, we don't want anything to go wrong." she added.
.
With Chloe in front, blake and zaid walking behind her, holding me like an animal, we stormed into the castle.
The inside looked even better than the outside.
with golden chandeliers and walls made of marbles, exquisite furnitures. kind i've never seen before. the place was dimly lit, but beautiful.
the place was heavily guarded with vampire soldiers, from the looks of it, there will be no escaping for me.
maids and other workers were roaming about, and it looked as if it was a normal human palace.
I could see every stopping at their paces once they set their eyes on me, some were happy, some looked at me with disgust, while some, pity (a few actually ) while the rest looked and my captors with envy.
I dont blame them, every one wants to nab a wanted person and become a hero. ughhh......
we ascended the stairs quietly and came to a halt in front of a huge door.
"We demand to see the prince!" Chloe said with pride to the angry looking guard in front of the door.
he was about to hit her in the face but stopped abruptly when he laid his eyes on me. after staring at me for what seemed like forever, he opened the door. we walked in with our shoulders high.
well, at least they did, the only thing that was on my mind was how i was going face what was ahead of me.
"Your highness." Chloe bowed, and the rest followed.
I was still standing straight, i didn't see the need to, cause I am dead meat anyway he might end up sucking my blood once he gets what he wants.
There he was, standing tall and fair. a bit too fair if you ask me.
he turned around to face us and the first thing that i saw were his dark mysterious eyes. i couldn't quite decide on what color they were. a bit of silvery greyish, greenish dark colour. i looked into his eyes and all i could see was evil. my eyes went upwards and i could see his dark thick black hair. his lips pink and pale, and his body well built. cutting the whole story short, he was gorgeous.
"your highness, we've got one of Amber's daughters." chloe said, with pride.
"i can see that." the prince replied coldly. "where is the older one, she'll be more useful." he added bluntly. this hit me hard. i can't believe that even in death's presence, my sister was picked over me, it's f**king annoying, it has always been like this. ughhh!
"your highness, the general has gone to fetch her, so we thought of Finding this one." Chloe said bitterly, i'm sure she didn't expect the prince to react soo indiffrently.
"Now that i'm here, what do you want, you asshole." i said after gathering alot of courage. i knew i was playing with fire, but who cares, i was going to die anyway, so i might as well have a little fun before leaving.
*smackk!!*
that was the sound of chloe's hands hitting my face. she slapped me so hard that i could feel blood in my mouth.
"how dare you speak that way." she yelled angrily.
"well, i'm sorry, i don't know how else i should call this piece of sh*t." i said feeling unremorseful.
she was about to hit me again when the cold Voice said "you can all leave. go meet the colonel and discuss your promotion."
we all face the door and were about to leave when the prince said "leave the girl here."
I gulped hard, as the feeling of being doomed hit me.
