The Vampire Servant

Chapter 1: A heartbreaking night

I hear a knock at the door. I'm laying on my bed texting my best friend Amanda. Then I hear my grandmother open the door, Who is it? I can hear her saying. I make my way out of my room so I can be nosey. I see a tall man at the door and they're talking. I can't quite hear what they're saying though. Then, the man pushes my grandmother to the floor. I quickly run to her side, Grams! Are you okay? what's happening? Then the man signals behind him and just like that another man comes bursting into our house. One grabs my arm and the other grabs my grandmothers. I start crying as the man starts dragging me outside. Just then both the men let us go, me and my grandmother run to each other and hold each other tightly. We look around to see what it looks to be the whole town. There is a black limo too. Grams im scared! I whisper to her. I know dear, I know she says. Then a tall handsome man walks out of the limo, he just stands there looking at everyone with a big sinister smile. Hello everyone! you guys must be confused, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Michael Rowan and I'm a vampire. he takes a bow. Everyone gasps and some are still crying. I'm here to take one of you lucky people with me to be my sons personal servant, Michael says with confidence. Nobody here will go with you! I snap with anger at him. Micheal turns his attention at me quickly, Oh being brave are we? he smiles walking towards me. He stops in front of me. Who are you young lady? I'm Catherine. Well, I think I just found my son's new servant. I quickly hug my grandmother with fear in both of our eyes. Sir I really don't want to go with you. I have a life here with my grandmother I plead. He then says, Well if you don't want to come then I'll just have my men kill your grandmother right in front of you. My heart breaks hearing this and I quickly hug her again. She whispers words that I'll never forget, she said "Everything is going to be alright Cathy." then as we're hugging she slips something into my pocket. "Don't look until you feel like giving up okay sweetie" Okay grams I finally said before getting ripped away from her arms once again. I get pushed into the limo, Micheal sits across from me and the other men are in the front seats. I just sit there staring at him from across. Why so quiet dear? I just look at him then I snap again. Your a f*****g monster! He then slaps my face hard. he knocked me out with one slap. I guess vampire strength is too much for you to handle huh he laughs as I'm unconscious. A few hours later I started gaining consciousness back. Well welcome back dear he said. I hold my cheek, you slapped me! Well well you shouldn't have gotten loud with me little girl. Anyways do you know why I want you to be my son's servant? No, uh I don't know I said. Well he needs a wife too so if you're a good girl for him then you just might have to marry him. Marriage comes with something though, you'll need him to turn you into a vampire first. WHAT! NO WAY! I CANT BE A VAMPIRE! Well dear you're going to have to deal with it he said with a straight face. I then looked out the window to see a giant mansion, it was dark and looked like it had been abandoned for generations. Well looks like we're here he said. The man who's driving finally parked and the one in the passenger seat got out and opened the door for Michael. Micheal got out and grabbed my arm forcing me to get out. He then grabs me, Making me follow him inside the mansion. As soon as I walk in everything is different from the outside, everything looks clean and fancy. He leads me up the stairs and the stairs felt like hours to climb. We finally make it up to the top floor where it doesn't quite look clean as the rest of the house. There are cobwebs and dust everywhere. He opens the door gesturing me to walk in. So I walk in and the room looks bare, One singular bed with one nightstand. there are candles for lights. Go to sleep and tomorrow at seven o'clock in the morning, One of my men will be here to get you started for servant work. Don't think about escaping either because I have men patrolling outside so if you somehow escape then they will kill you and after that we will find your grandmother and kill her too he said. I nod and sit down on the bed as he closes the door behind me. I start crying to myself thinking of my grams. I reach into my pocket for the gift she had left me, it's a locket that has mine and her photo in it. I cry to it and start talking to myself, Oh grams I'm so sorry. Then I yawn and start feeling sleepy. I lay my head down on the hard pillow on the hard bed. After fifteen minutes I finally dozed off and fell asleep.
