I saw my life flashed before my very own eyes. One minute he was aiming for my throat and the next minutes he was getting thrown back against my reading table so powerfully that it broke into halves with a crumbling sound.Looking back up, I was relived to see Logan standing in the same spot my attacker had been just a moment ago as he stood shirtless and in a protective stance with his large blade in hand.Seeing Logan’s unexpected appearance in the room, my attacker didn’t stay down for long from the impact before he was back on its feet, moving Just as swiftly before throwing himself at Logan who was obviously standing in his way of getting to me.Even as a human, Logan was nothing but a beast as he kicked and slice the mask man, leaving absolutely no room for counterattack from his own end.I have never witness a supernatural fight before and sitting so up close and personal has its little disadvantage. I was practically in the way as my room was barely enough to contain the ragin
Logan led me through the long corridor, down a hidden stairs as we went deeper into a much darker route before going through a specific door.I could barely see in the darkness as I was led further into the dark hall, the only thing in the air was the sound of feet hitting the hard concrete floor.Logan gave me a small light after I bumped into him a few times so I could see in the darkness. I felt as though I was trapped in this space, my breath starting to come out short.I can’t help but imagine being held behind this bars of cages. The thought alone is enough to make me want to turn back but I had gone too far to turn back now.As we approached the cell further, my nostrils was immediately hit by the most wretch of smell. I couldn’t even bring myself to imagine what the sources was.We walked further and Logan stopped in front of the one I assumed to belong to lady vena. I stepped closer to the steel cell bar trying to get a glimpse of the woman lying on the small dirty form on th
“I needed to see her and speak to her about what happened. I felt she could tell me the truth”“What truth, Iris. Where you went is no place for you. You shouldn’t have gone there” He barked.“I wasn’t alone. Logan was with me” I explained calmly hoping it would be enough to make him see that I wasn’t in danger when I went there but instead he huffed and threw a punishing look at the door as though he wanted to go hand one to Logan since he was just outside the door.“Still doesn’t matter. He wasn’t permitted to take you down there” prince said with a sigh and I continued.“He didn’t want to so I sort of threatened him” I admitted with quiet voice and he arched a brow at me.“I know I was wrong but I spoke to Lady Vena about what happened and i want you to please set her free” I said with determination.“What? Have you gone mad?” He croaked in disbelief as he stared my startled form down with narrowed eyes.“Did you forget she tried to kill you several times already?” Prince questione
A week has gone by since that day and I was back in my own room once again after successfully convincing the Prince to let me sleep in my room of course.Most of the broken items were fixed and new ones were brought in to replace the completely broken ones.This morning, I had rolled out of bed with a sigh. I went to bed last night but couldn’t sleep. I kept hearing strange screams down the hallway.Even with my necklace, my hearing ability was still heighten to an abnormal degree and so far, throughout last night, it felt as though I couldn’t close my eyes without listening to someone being severally tortured.Try as hard as I may, I couldn’t put my ears to the ground without catching a wind of that painful grunt and hissing in pain.I sighed once again, pushing the thought out of my mind as I brushed my hair into a neat bun before walking into the bathroom.After I had finished dressing up, I heard a knock at the door and I went to the door and unlocked it, sliding the bolt out.Agn
I returned back to my room and decided to have a shower then nap a little. When I awoke again, I decided to go visit Prince in his room later that night.I got to his door and knocked and then waited for response. I’m not sure if he was in or not but o was hopeful he was.Before I could knock again, the door opened and prince stood in the door way. He really had not expected me as he stood with confusion in his eyes, staring back at me.He was completely shirtless and displaying a bit of muscle. His hair was also ruffled as my eyes trailed him further.He smiled , leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed.“You miss me already?” He asked teasingly and I felt my cheek heat up at his comment.“Can I come in?”“Sure” He laughed softly and stepped out of the door way to allow me into his room.I walked in further before turning around to face him.“I’m sorry, I didn’t realized you were about to go to bed already” my eyes found their way back to his stomach and I swallowed.“is
I took a step towards him and stopped, not sure if helping him was a really good idea. I mean, if he was kept here then it must be for a reason and letting him free might get me into trouble, that’s if I’m not already in trouble of course.“I can’t” I said, shaking my head from side to side.“Please” He half demanded and plead before another groan tore through his clenched teeth.My heart breaks at the sound of his anguish. So much so that, I just wanted to rip the chains from him and set him free once and for all as I stood staring at his skin getting deeply burned.“please” He let out once more and just lay still without moving and I gasped.For a moment there, I just stood wondering what just happened.Was he dead?Oh my!I jolted forward, forgetting my initial hesitation that I had before as I ran to him, closing the distance between us quickly. I fell to my knees beside where he lay on the floor.“Mr…prince…um..wake up” I called out as I reached out and cup his face covered in
I tried to keep my focus on his face but couldn’t. I was still feeling lightheaded and completely out of focus.Prince Dan whose skin has completely healed and gone back to normal at this point had grasped my face in his hand and pulled me to peer into his blazing eyes before frowning.“You really won tell me your secret?”I struggled to move out of his grasped but he held me tighter, drawing out little whimper from my mouth.The door burst open and he was violently knocked off me and in his place was now Logan as he stood in a protective stance over me.“stay away from her” He warned dangerously.“And who are you?” Prince Dan asked with a bored expression.Logan’s fingers gripped his knife even more before replying.“I'm her bodyguard and I say you stay away from her”“let me guess, my brother actually put you for to this?” Prince Dan said with a chuckle before his expression turned serious again.“Well, you don’t get to tell me what to do or how to do it” He snarled and moved with s
Prince walked over and sat beside me on the bed. He still looked upset as he continued to stare at the bite wound on my shoulder even though only a pink scar was all that was left behind.I reached out my hand and grasp a handful of his shirt as I stare deep into his eyes.“I’m sorry I set him free. When I saw him in those horrible shackles and he begged me to set him free, I couldn’t leave him behind even though I knew I was wrong for even being there. I got too curious and now, I’m sorry” I said quietly and expected him to be upset at me for my foolishness.Instead he let out a sigh before grasping my hand and gave it a little squeeze.“No need to be sorry, Iris. You have a good heart and my brother saw that and took advantage of it but it’s my fault for not telling you about him sooner. If I had, then you wouldn’t have fallen for his tricks of playing the victim just so you could set him free”“Now what is going to happen? Will I be punished for setting him free” I asked curiously
