The Dragon Diaries

Chapter 2

I was in a dark cell with other kids smaller than me and was one of the few older teens in the cell. we do not know how long we have been here or how we ended up here, well some of us do… but all I remember was my walk to the park and it getting late but then nothing, just waking up here. We stuck on our own because we didn’t know the other new prisoners and we learnt not to get to know them and lose them when they are taken and there is nothing we can do about it; the bad men are coming and taking them away and I am terrified of them taking me so its best to try to be invisible.

They are coming again, they always take seven each time. I look down and ignore everyone but then I get pulled up and shoved with the other five girls, they chose one more and then they blindfolded us and took us on a walk. We were made to stand and told not to move or talk, then we heard the man start a bid on us, oh my gosh, they were selling us, I was freaking out again, worse than when they pushed me to my ‘master’ as they called him, I’m a slave to someone! “my accountant will handle the payment; she would be perfect for my son” the guy said and then I was dragged and sat in a car? A knew car by the smell of it… we were on the road for quite a long while that my muscles became lazy and I was tired but could not sleep because I was so restless and scared. When we finally did stop, someone put their fingers on my temple and commanded me to sleep and I found myself unable to stay awake and everything went black.

I awoke to people speaking “she is a present from your mother and me son, do not break her, besides she seems quite strong, she even managed to resist my mind suggestion for a while” “father, there are many slaves so there is no need for one more when the other slaves just clean but perhaps I can keep her as my blood slave” “son we brought her to be your mind slave, your very own personal slave that you wanted for so long, well we are finally giving you permission to have one, we trust that you will look after her” “thank you father, I will” my eyes closed again when there was no more talking and my mind went blank.

I opened my eyes to see a soft bed but with a cage around it, I could see a gate but it was shut closed, locked from the outside with heavy looking chains. I looked around the room and saw it was quite spacious and neat and that there was no one around for a while and I did not know what to do to get out of this cage and whatever place this is, maybe if what my parents told me of being a dragon was true, they will come and save me, if their story was true then they would have come to save me but I guess it was just a joke after all or I would have been saved days ago when I was kidnapped. Do they really not shift and use their powers anymore that they won’t even save me? I must think for myself and get out myself out somehow…

I was just thinking of how I will get out of here when the door opened and in came two maids but they were young like me, they ignored me even when I called to them and asked questions. They left in a hurry when a gorgeous guy came in, he was tall and muscular with slightly long black hair with a small curl and dark blue eyes, he gave a small cold, yet cruel smile when he saw me was awake and watching him. He walked to the cage and looked at me with those dark, cold and empty eyes, examining me while staring in my eyes so I stared defiantly back and he seemed to enjoy that and gave a sneer and a low chuckle that sounded like a growl, then he unlocked the cage, lifting the chains with no difficulty at all and came in which made my heart jump out in fear and went to the end of the cage which was not that far since it was only the edge of the bed, s**t we both locked on a bed, please tell me he is not going to do that with me! shivering with that thought while he just stood there staring at me, gosh why is he only staring! “I think I will enjoy you as my mind slave, you’re a beautiful child” I knew then that this was the son that I was given to and I was a bit confused and irritated on why he called me child when he seemed to be around my age or just a few years older but at that moment he launched at me, held me down in an unbreakable hold and bit my neck, it was a deep burning, intense pain and I passed out after screaming my throat raw in pain.

I woke up to a sore throat and burning eyes, tears started flowing when I saw he was still with me which just made my raw throat sting even more, he looked up from his desk and saw me, he showed me his fangs and got up to come to me but I saw he had left the gate open so I didn’t even think straight and ran out the gate, well tumbled out as I was too weak, I fell on the floor and struggled to get up, my legs just won’t work right, like rubber. He looked at me and just laughed while he picked me up and I was too tired to try to get away but shook in fear of what he would do about my attempted escape but all he did was put me back in bed and lock the gate then he went back to his desk. I never looked away from him in fear he will do something, until a noise outside the door and it was instinct that made me look at the door but when I looked back to find him, he was gone and I started to freak out again and looked all around the room that I could see and strained my ears to hear something but I did not find him and I was tired, so damn tired that my eyes was burning and with a small hope that maybe he will not come back when I was asleep, I got comfortable and went to sleep, hoping I could have a small nap so I could try to make a break for it later.

It felt warm but I didn’t remember putting a blanket on but I was still too tired to get up so I just borrowed in the warmth for a while longer but then I felt movement and someone move a piece of my hair aside so they could look at my face so I opened my eyes to see him and I was scared to move or do anything but all he did was look at me. “you are truly a natural beauty and to think you are all mine…” he said and then he kissed me, I was shocked because as a wallflower, no one even knew I existed unless they wanted something and that is why this is my first kiss, also my first time called a beauty, so I did not know what to do but I was still s**t scared of him so I let him kiss me and I was very ashamed to like it as well, gosh something is wrong with me, I sobbed in my head. He pulled back and smiled and looked at my throat while he tilted my head back with my hair and my heart started to scream out of my body again because I knew what he intended to do, he was going to bite me. I tensed and waited for the pain but there was no pain, it actually felt so nice and made me feel blissful but I needed more of something, I just did not know what until I felt a prickling feeling in my jaw and had the notion of biting him back, so I did and oh my goodness I relaxed in his hold just from that when I felt a warm smooth yet bitter syrup but that was when things turned around, he looked and hissed at me and peeled my lips back then hissed again and commanded me to sleep and though I fought it, I found my mind shutting off and everything going black.

“father, I did not turn her, I just bit her so I don’t know how this has happened and she was locked in the cage and no other vampire entered my room, I put the mind lock on her a day ago and she had to be human for me to do that” “this complicates things, the council will not believe us and we will be punished for turning a vampire without notifying them, we have two options son, we can kill her or set her free as a rogue vampire, she knows nothing of us, you have not told her anything, have you?” “no father she knows nothing but our faces but I can remedy that with a mind block before I break the bond” “son are you sure of this decision? Breaking a mind bond is also a criminal offence” “I am sure father, let us take her and dump her at the graveyard”

My brain processed all of this and although it was exciting to be free, it was scary because I have never been alone and they going to do something to me first before dumping me at a freaken graveyard! When their footsteps got closer, I did not pretend to sleep but just looked up at them defiantly.

sigh “I will miss her, maybe I will get her back in a few years, if she survives that is” “son I will advise against that, you must put her out of your mind for good” he picked me up and sat me on the chair “I had a good time with you, limited as it were but I’m afraid it has come to an end, goodbye beauty” he then pulled my hair and this time I was half terrified yet half excited when he bit me but it was like the first time, full of raging pain and this time I could feel him in my mind but then everything blacked out, again.
