Chapter One - Jade.
I was kidnapped and teleported for my own safety!
I know sounds mad right?
Not for me and this crazy world I've been thrown into (or rather carried into over the shoulder of an insanely hot and muscly Warlock)..... Enough I digress, my name is Jade and this is my story of how I came to be living in the world of supernatural beings.
It all started like any other day, boring usual, the story of my life. Get up, shower, go to work at the local diner, earn a few bucks, get covered in grease and coffee, home again, shower.... but then the strangest thing happened.
My mobile started to ring, raising my eyes I went to grab it, already deciding to ignore it if it's my boss asking me to cover extra shifts. I glanced at the screen to see it was a blocked number as the caller ID, squinting my eyes and deciding I might need glasses I accept the call.
"Hello, who is this?" I ask while examining my nails and thinking I could do with a manicure, ha fat chance of that on my wages.
"You have to get out of there right now, they're coming" the voice on the end of the line was faint and crackly.
"OK, who is this and who's coming? I don't have time for prank calls, I have washing to do, shopping to get and a date with netflix and a glass of wine." I snapped back at the mysterious caller.
"Run... now!"
The call ended and I was left standing wondering what the heck was going on. Suddenly I heard footsteps coming closer to my front door and I looked around for something to use as a weapon, my eyes landed on the frying pan that was next to the sink waiting to be washed, grabbing it I backed up towards the bathroom behind me and locked myself in.
I could hear the splintering of wood as someone crashed through my front door, heart beating fast I raised the frying pan ready to whack anyone that came into the bathroom.
The door to the bathroom crashed in, I closed my eyes and slammed my frying pan straight into the face that appeared "Dammit woman, what did you do that for and why the hell didn't you run when we called to warn you?" I peeked opening one eye to see a tall man that stood well over 6ft holding his nose which was dripping with blood...oops.
I raised the pan ready to deliver a second whack when he snatched the pan from me "Look lady, I've had to leave my realm to save you now be a good girl and do as you're told we need to leave right now!" His sexy deep voice rumbled. Wait, wait, wait, forget the sexy voice Jade and focus on the fact he just told you to be "a good girl" how very dare he!
Popping my hip out with my hands on my hips I glared up at him, noticing he was the most handsome man I've ever seen with piercing blue eyes and blonde hair that was short at the side and longer on top perfect for running my fingers through and the lips, oh god don't get me started on those plump.....FOCUS!
"How dare you come barging into my home demanding I be a good girl" taking a deep breath I pointed my finger, jabbing him in his extremely muscled chest "I've never been one to follow orders and I won't start now" each word I punctuated with a jab to the chest.
He raised an eyebrow and looked down to my jabbing finger, he sighed "Looks like we will be doing this the hard way"
Before I could process what that might mean I was grabbed around the waist and flung over his shoulder fireman style, I swatted at his back and tried to kick him. I felt a sharp slap to my ass "keep still, I'm trying to help you" he growled.
Did he just growl at me? God that sounded sexy and did he just slap my ass? The nerve of the brute.
"Put me down you big oaf" I shouted, wiggling about like a worm.
Another slap to my ass and then his hand stayed on my ass holding me tightly on his shoulder.
He mumbled some words that I didn't hear and I saw a bright light that we seemed to be heading towards, I closed my eyes as the light got closer and brighter. I felt a swirling feeling in my tummy and the next thing I heard were birds singing and running water, opening one eye I saw we were at the edge of a lake which had a forest surrounding it. Ummm Dorothy I don't think we are in Kansas anymore.
Unceremoniously the brute plonked me on the ground, I tried to stand up with as much dignity as possible considering my long black hair was a tangled mess.
Glancing around I couldn't help but think how beautiful it was. The lake glistened with clear water and flowers of all colours grew amongst the trees, the sky was as blue as the brutes eyes and there was a gentle warm breeze.
Snapping me out of my thoughts I heard his voice "are you done being a brat and ready to listen to me now?" I turned to face him, he was leaning against a tree with his arms folded which showed off how big and hard his biceps were. I wiped my mouth in case I was drooling...wait a minute "a brat?"
"Look here Mr brute, you're the one who came into my peaceful life and brought me to God knows where. You think you can just stand there looking all sexy and call me a brat? I don't think so" I took a deep breath ready to launch into him again when I noticed him smirking "what?" I snapped.
"Sexy huh?" He drawled.
