Chapter 10: Weird Dream

1020 Words
(Zaria POV) I got up in the middle of the night and I felt like there was not enough oxygen in the room for me to breathe. I looked around and, luckily, I was present in my room. My forehead was covered with beads of sweat. I wiped them with the back of my hand but my heartbeat was still way more than normal. I put my hand on my chest to calm my erratic heart. “What was that? A weird dream? No!... Weird was not the right word for explaining that dream. I looked around and it was still pretty dark. I was in no mood to go back to sleep. I headed towards the garden. It was the only place that could give a bit of comfort at that moment. I don’t want to ruin anyone else's sleep. I came out of my room and headed toward my flower garden without informing anyone else. It seemed like my flowers were also enjoying their deep sleep. As soon I stepped foot in the garden, a wave of calmness washed over my body and a smile appeared on my lips. I checked all the flowers and started walking in the garden. All the flowers help me to brighten up my days and remind me of my Mami. They were a reminder of my revenge plan and every time I visited my garden, I became more determined about my mission. Every single day was enough to lessen the distance between my mission and my reality. I never forgot to work on my mission every single day. I started touching the petals of the dragon Lily flower. Father gifted me a few rare flowers and it was one of them. I never heard of it before in the whole Elf kingdom. It was a flower of green and purple color. Its petals were of a purple color which started turning into a bright pink color as it matured. I love to see its transformation. I looked towards the sky, which was still black and stars were shining like white glowing diamonds. My mind drifted toward my dream. I closed my eyes and started rewinding the dream in my mind. * * * ***(Dream)*** * * * “Help! Please, Help me!!!”I was running blindly in a dark forest. Rustling sounds of leaves made me shiver in fright and I looked behind me but there was no one. My whole body was shivering due to fear and I was covered in sweat from head to toe. I didn’t know why I was running and where I was heading. But, I did not stop until my head bumped into a wall. I looked towards the wall but it was a broad chest…My eyes met with the bloody eyes of a person and he grinned while looking at my tear-stricken face. “Where do you think you are going, Angel?” He asked in a hushed tone and grinned when I didn’t answer his question. I gasped loudly and was taken aback. His pointy fangs were covered in blood and a few flood drops were present on his neck and dress. “Wh-what do you want?” I asked while stuttering in fear and his smile deepened. He slowly walked towards me and encircled his arm around my waist. “I want the blood of an elf princess and then I become a powerful vampire. I will rule all the kingdoms,” he said, and then he looked towards me. His eyes traveled from my eyes to the side of my neck and I shook my neck. “You can’t do this with me. Please spare my life and I will give you whatever you want,” I tried to plead with him but he was not ready to listen to my any pleadings. “Nothing can give me the power which I want except the blood of an elf Princess. Tsk, Tsk, a beautiful elf Princess will be sacrificed because of me. I am feeling bad for you,” he said in a slow tone, and slowly his one cold hand travelled towards my nape, and then his fangs elongated. I close my eyes in fear. I don’t want to witness the show of my misery with my own eyes. “You will sacrifice your precious life just like your pretty aunt. I am still mourning her death,” he said, and my eyes snapped open after hearing his cruel words. “What??” I barely said before he pierced the side of my skin with his long fangs. I felt a sharp pain in the side of my neck and my loud scream echoed in the dense forest. He was gulping my blood and slowly I started losing consciousness. * * * *****(Dream Ends)***** * * * I touched the side of my neck with my hand and a sigh of relief escaped my lips when I didn’t find any mark of fangs. Although It was a dream, it felt very real like someone really pierced my skin. The feeling of his cold hands against my warm skin, His hot breath, and his husky tone. The feeling of pain when his strong fangs pierced my skin. I shuddered when I remembered the whole incident. “No!!! I am safe in my Palace. Nobody can harm me and I am safe and sound,” I said to myself. I can still feel the aftereffects of dreams. I don’t want to go back to sleep as I am afraid of this type of dream. I have to talk to someone about this dream, but with whom? This question has no answer. I couldn’t share all this with my mother or father as they would either become high alert about our security or they would not understand it. I looked towards the stars and a lone tear rolled down my lips. “I am missing you, Mami!” I said in a hushed tone and closed my eyes. I didn’t realize it when I drifted into a deep slumber on the garden bench.
