It seemed like a blink of an eye and we were standing in the middle of an abandoned warehouse. Huge contrast to the castle I was just in a second ago.
Dimitri let me go and grabbed his phone out of his pocket quickly dialing a number. I couldn't here the other end of the call, but Dimitri sounded urgent.
"It's time. Arrange immediately for our arrival.....Yes.....We will discuss it all when I get there, but right now her safety is priority....I don't have time for this just follow the protocal and we will be there as soon as we can." Hanging up he turned back to me. I was staring at him dumb founded.
"What were you thinking? Do you have any idea the danger you put yourself in?"
"Well, no not at first, but it wasn't my fault."
"How wasn't it your fault. You went there willingly did you not. After what I had told you, you still went." He was growing angry.
"I most certainly did not go there willingly. Viktor and I were on a picnic and th
It took not more than a moment and we were standing in a whole new world. In my eyes this realm was much more beautiful than the last. There were two suns and two moons in the sky and the sky itself was amazing. There were blues, pinks, yellows and purples all blending together to make such a sight an artist could only dream of witnessing and to lay upon a canvas. I was in pure awe of what I was seeing.Also, there was a sense of peacefulness here. I didn't feel like I was under a microscope with prying eyes from up above. Which reminded me. Looking up to the trees there were no little houses decorated with moss and flowers. No little heads peeking out and looking down at me. They were just trees, but not the typical tree. No, these trees were much more than that. They themselves shimmered with every breeze that went through them and if you listened closely it almost sounded like wind chimes dancing through their limbs and leaves.Letting go of Dimitris hand I walked f
As we walked inside I noticed everything was made of white marble. The floors, the large columns lining the whole entrance and then the marble staircase that spiraled up to all the floors that I could see. This seemed to be the complete center, the heart of the castle. I didn't see any throne like I seen with my parents castle. It seemed like this was the middle of the whole and everything could be seen from here at the bottom all the way up to the very top floor. It was something to behold, but man just thinking of walking all the way up those stairs just seemed exhausting to me and I'm not even in bad shape.Laughing Dimitri said. "Love, you do realize that you don't have to walk all those stairs? We have wings and can go wherever we want with little effort."Oh yeah. Buuut..."Lest you forget that I can't pop my wings out yet like you can.""Good thing you have me to carry you around until you can 'pop' them out."He laughs at the popping out rema
Slowly waking up I felt Dimitris absence from around my waist and opened my eyes to reach over and see if he was still in the bed."I'm right here." I heard him say from across the room where he was sitting in a black velvety looking lounge chair.Clearing my throat I laughed lightly. "I thought I said no creepy staring while I was sleeping."Getting up from his chair he walked over and sat next to me on the bed. "My apologies, my love, but I just couldn't help myself you are even more beautiful when you are sleeping. If that was even possible."He leaned down and placed a light kiss on my forehead and then more firmly he kissed me on my lips. "Mmm." Was all I could muster."Would you like me to draw you a bath?" he asked.Realizing that I didn't get to clean up yesterday and still feeling that dull ache between my legs I thought now was a great time for a soak in the tub."You don't have to do that.""I want to. Just giv
Waking up wrapped up in anothers arms is one of the best feelings in the world.I don't think either of us planned on falling asleep, but I suppose we wore each other out. I can't complain. Who could. No one in there right mind would.Again I say I have no regrets on it being Dimitri and although I wish I did know the whole story with Viktor and I do feel bad about that whole situation. I couldn't bring myself to let that hold me back from what I feel was right. Dimitri always felt right and any time that was influenced was due to Aimee andd Viktor telling me otherwise. All the while they were proving themselves untrustworthy and not at all forthcoming. Especially for people who stated they had the best of intentions.Wonder if I will ever see them again? Who am I kidding, I know I will. The question is when will I see them again.There's a lot at play and is it possible they could come here? I'm assuming yes. But will they. And then once I get to go back
After freshening up I made my way back into Dimitris bedroom to find he wasn't there. Exiting the room and entering the hall I find myself still marvelling over how beautiful this place was. Everything in its place and everything having the same color scheme to match Dimitris wings. I suppose that's all due to him being the King here. Which is another thing I find myself amazed over. Not just the fact that he is a King, but the fact that he wants me when he could have anyone he wishes. Atleast I would suppose so.Looking down over the banister and pulling quickly back. It was a straight drop down to the bottom floor. This place was definitely meant for someone with wings. I guess that's an easy way to transport if you had the means, but I don't as of yet and that's one hell of a lot of stairs to get down to the bottom. Assuming Dimitri is even down there and if he isn't I sure as hell won't be walking back up to his room.Trying to decide whether or not I want to stay
My heart was still tight in my chest and I could feel the tears as they were drying on my face, but I couldn't think about that dream now. I had to think of Dimitri and what has happened. "What happened, Dimitri?" He stood and pulled me up to my feet. "All in due time, love. You aren't safe here right now. We need to go." Figuring now wasn't the time to start asking the barrade of questions that are pounding through my head. Besides it was then that I noticed that we weren't alone. Dimitri stood at the entrance of the knoll and I seen others behind him. Their wings making slight fluttering movements and their eyes searching the sky like they were waiting for it to fall down on them. The looks on all their faces fueled the fire of concern I had. Dimitri, clinging to my hand he lead me outside and I was completely taken aback by the sight in front of me. The sky was a dark smokey gray as opposed to the bright colors it was just earlier and that wasn't the worst part. The town off in
I think my expectations where a little too high when I expected the bath to wash away the stress. If anything while I was in there I stressed more. My mind is a muddled mess and to be completely honest I'm scared. This day started off magical. A fairy tale come true. But in no time things changed so drastically and became dangerous. I should be able to handle my own. I needed to be able to help these faeries. This is all because of my father and his minions. They want me and because I don't now how to defend myself and have no clue as to what is completely expected of me I am failing. And let me tell you I hate to fail. Makes me feel weak and I hate that.But my minds a mess and my body is in knots. What can I do? Needing answers and needing Dimitri...I slowly made my way across the dark room to the bed covered in blue velvet bedding. I curl up into a ball and for the first time I truly let it all out. I cry until I can't cry anymore. Drained dry. Despite the ache in my body and m
We stayed there for the longest time talking and he settled my nerves by reassuring me about this new ability and about what may be to come. There wasn't much else we could do at this point but wait. Plan. And educate. Because lets face it, there's a lot I still need to learn. My wings for example. Obviously there is a lot I don't know, but thats okay. Dimitri said I won't be alone in this and he will remain by my side every step of the way. Which is comforting. "So my love, first order of business is you learning to 'pop' out your wings. Think you feel up to that today?" There wasn't a doubt in my mind. "Yes! I need to learn as soon as possible. So let's go!" Jumping up from the bed and ready to go. Dimitri chuckles. "Is my little princess eager to fly?" "Umm, no. I'm scared of flying. But I'm more scared of dying and I need to do this to protect myself and everyone that matters." Standing up and walking towards me with a serious look on his face. "Brenna, I understand your fe
