The door to the throne room burst open as my the guards I sent a couple of hours ago to search everything part of the woods for any trace of Her.
"Sire" They said in unison as they got on their knees and bowed with their right hand pressed to their chest.
"Speak" I mumbled and they got up. My most trusted soldier, Williams, steps forward and I take my hand from under my cheek ready to listen to the news- hopefully a good one.
"There has been no sign of her sire.." He muttered and I sighed in defect. "...However, we detected the smell of Rouges and we believe that Lady Celeste has been abducted."
"Why so?" I asked and William walk

I think?As I sat silently there, I couldn't help but think, does anyone know I'm missing? I mean surely someone has to have noticed. I thought about my family and how worried they'd be if the found out that I've been kidnapped. I thought about my best friend Anna, she probably thinks I'm dead and I chuckled at that.

I keep having flash of images but none of them makes any sense. Shakily, I got up from bed and walk towards the bathroom to pee.After I was done, I looked at my reflection in the mirror. My eyes were bloodshot and my skin extremely pale. It also seems like I have lost tone of weight as my bones were sticking out.What the hell happened to me? How much memories did I loose?I closed my eyes as I placed my hands on the counter, trying hard to remember something- anything.All i could remember was getting out of bed in the middle of the night and the rest are blurry."Celeste?" Elijah's voice called behind me and I snapped my eyes open staring at him from the mirror. H

I wrapped the bedspread around my naked chest as Elijah placed the tray filled with food on the bed."Good morning" he murmured with a sheepish smile. "Morning" I said while running my hand through my tangled hair."Smells good" I mumbled inhaling the delicious smell of pancakes. Yes Pancakes!!"Not as good as you do" The king said with a smirk playing on his plump lips."Stop it" I murmured almost inaudibly but im pretty sure he heard that for her chuckled softly.I sigh when I took a bite from one of the pancakes drenched in syrup, it felt like I have not eaten in years. I offered some to Elijah but he declined saying he would have breakfast later."We have a meeting to attend to later in the day" Elijah said while i st

When I got to my-Elijahs Wing which is the North wing- I released a sigh when I hand was on the big brown door."Celeste," I heard Elijah's voice and I turned around to look at him. He was putting on a gray suit with a white inner shirt and his hair was combed to sleek. His shoe was as black at night reflecting his suit as he walks and on his left hand was his golden crown and royal robe that dragged on the ground and he seems to go not care one bit."I was looking for you," He continued, stopping in front of me with a smile while I gave him one too but his smile flattered when he saw my tear stained cheek and bloodshot eyes."What happened?" He asked and I shook my head but he was not having it. I sighed and shift on my feet before looking at his gray eyes."I got

"You should apologize to mom" My brother mumbled as we both walked outside the beautiful rose garden. I sighed, nodding my head at what he said for he was right. I do need to apologize to mother for shouting at her. "You're right, I shouldn't have spoken to her the way I did" I said as we stopped next to a beach. I watched as a green butterfly landed on one of the roses before moving to another. "This garden is really beautiful, but strange as it is only filled with red roses don't you think shorty?" My brother asked and I snorted and the nickname. "I'm not short," I said, emphasizing on the word short. "But I think the garden is beautiful as it is" I answered his question about the garden.
