Suddenly, the sound of flapping wings came to her hearing and she lifted her face. A pigeon had just flown into the cage and landed on the shoulder of the elf who sat beside her. She saw the elf gently caressing the pigeon's silky head and heard her say, "I understand and thank you".When the pigeon flew out again, Amethyst asked the brown-eyed elf, "What did it tell you?"The tired elf looked at her and answered, "It says, we're now in Numany, the human territory."Amethyst's face turned pale and so did others.Suddenly, the carriage, that carried the cage, came to an abrupt stop, forcing the captives forward in their seats"Get out, you lots!"A rough voice along with the loud banging on the cage, shook everyone.The elves in the cage got out, and their hands were bounded as soon as they stepped on the ground. Then, they walked on foot, literally dragged, towards a massive tent that was located far from where they were dropped off. Along the way, humans were everywhere and they wer

Two men, different from before, dragged her out of the cold dungeon. Amethyst was too weak to stand on her feet and thus, had to rely on the men's strength to lift her. They went out through the same back door and reached a waiting carriage. There, a tall man wearing a black mask that covered his entire face was waiting."The elf is here!" Lord Leteas said as he beamed at the mysterious masked man. "What happened to her?" asked the man when Amethyst's dirty, weak and battered body came into his view. Plus, her tattered and soiled nightdress was disturbing to see. Also, she reeked of blood! Lord Leteas smiled and replied, "Well, she misbehaved and thus was sentenced to confinement to correct her manners. But, I assure you that she has broken nothing on her body. It's our creed to make sure anything we sell still retains its highest quality."It was a happy day for Lord Leteas when he heard about a mysterious wealthy man looking for golden-eyed elves. The greedy lord reached out to h

Amethyst woke up, groaning. Her jaws ached. Her wounds hurt. Her stomach grumbled. Nothing was pleasant.The weary elf lifted her bedsore face and glanced around. "Where am I?" she mumbled. Her voice was raspy for her throat was dry.She was on a large four-poster bed with velvety sheets and pillows. White veils mantled the bed from the canopy down to the white wooden floor, curtaining the bedsides. Living green veins with blooming flowers coiled the bed posts, adorning them. The pleasant and soft scent of the flowers tickled her nostrils which were only familiar with the strong and pungent scent of dust and rust.The elf found herself admiring the bed as it was something that she had never seen in her life. Then, she crawled on all four to the bedside, pushed the veils gently to one side, and then, poked her head out.She was inside a strange room that looked like a massive glass dome. The skylight was high above her head, and the room was bright from the inside out. About twenty str

Luveas was seen inhaling and exhaling deeply, taking his time. Then, came his reply in the form of a question, “When have I said I am one of them?” Amethyst felt her whole body shivering. Her heart palpitated. “Stay away from me,” she hissed at him.Nothing seemed pleasant when they were inside a room that looked like a cage. At any minute, this man, no, this vampire could attack and tear at her neck.“Amethyst, I am not going to harm you.” Luveas paced forward.“Get out of my sight!” Amethyst shouted and scooted to the other end of the bed, holding a pillow dear to her chest.“Amethyst-”“Get out!”Luveas ignored her shouting command as he lifted the veil, and he saw her cowered at the end of the bed.“Amethyst," he said, "I’m sorry for not telling you about myself. I didn’t mean to hide it. I thought of telling you soon, but given your situation, I thought I ought to hide it. But, trust me, I won’t hurt you. I am different from the other vampires for I have the power to protect you

"We do but we don't eat vegetables," said Luveas. "Then, what did you just give me?" asked Amethyst."Humans' gourmet," Luveas said. "Forgive me for not saying anything because I didn't want to starve you. Also, I don't know what the elves normally have.""Fruits, vegetables, fish and bakes."Luveas lifted his face, surprised. Does that mean she trusts him now?Silence filled the dimly lit room. Amethyst, getting uncomfortable with his silence, then said, "Since you got nothing else to do, please leave.""Do you need to bathe?" Luveas asked, jumping into a new topic. Somehow he was suddenly feeling elated. "I'll have one after you leave," answered Amethyst coldly. She would never take a bath in the presence of her enemy. "Then, allow me to prepare the water for you.""Sure.""Can I light the candles?""Go ahead."Luveas lit the candles to brighten the room. Then, he filled the tub that was only twenty strides away from the bed, and it was hidden behind a standing screen. Beside th
