Kidnapped - Chapter 30

The moon was full in the sky,when I woke. Draven was nowhere in sight. But the Queen,Brandy, and Angeline were, with three other servants.The Queen held my dress up in the light by my bed. "It's time to get up, Akita." she said. I groaned.Brandy pulled me out of bed. She had run a bath for me. She forced me into the tube, and began to wash me.I frowned at her." What are you doing? I can do it." I said. I took the clothe from her ,and washed myself. She left,and came back with a bouquet of flowers.They were beautiful, white lilies. I smiled, and smelled them. "They're beautiful." I said." I helped get them." Brandy told me.I got out of the bath, and dried off.Then the other women came in. They swarmed me. Lizeta dressed me, as Angel combed back my hair, and Brandy rubbed me down with lilac lotion. I was being pulled, pushed, and rubbed, all at the same time. But they got it done quick. The next thing I knew they were handing me the lilies, and pushing me out the door.

They lead me downstairs to a different room ,closer to the courtyard. Brandy stayed in there with me. I was really hungry but I also felt sick. Brandy looked down at me and saw my face. "You nervous?" she asked. "I don't know?" I smiled weakly. "You'll be fine." she assured me, taking my hand. I squeezed it. "Thanks." I hissed. She nodded. A maid brought Brandy her dress. It was light blue with, embroidered lilies on it.She looked ravishing in it. Someone knocked no the door soon after. It was another maid. She motioned Brandy over. Brandy looked back at me. "Hold on. Ok?I'll be right back. "She told me.I nodded. A couple of minutes later, Vlad came in. He looked at me. "You look nice. "He smiled. I smiled back.. " Well, it's time to start. I'm here to walk you down the ile." he told me. I shook my head. "Brandy's not back yet." I said. " It's ok. She'll catch up.Lets go." he said, grabbing my arm. I stud up and followed him out the door. I was worried Brandy was going to be late.Vlad walked to the door of the courtyard, where I saw our guests.

There were at least fifty. I looked up the ile, and there stood my groom. Draven, looked glorious. He wore a simple black tux.I gave him a shy smile, as he glazed at me lovingly.The music stared, and Vlad pulled me forward. I turned back and looked for Brandy, but she still wasn't there. I sighed. As I got to the steeple, Draven took my hand, and pulled me away from Vladimir. Vlad took a seat. The king looked at us both, and smiled. He took a breath to say something. I suppose it was to start the wedding, but I never got to hear. Everyone outside turned to the door leading into the house. There was screaming and glass braking inside. No one moved. We all waited. Then, in the doorway stood a blood soaked Drakon. His teeth were bared, and he had two things dangling in his hand. I was frozen.

I felt the king step between Draven and I, he walked toward Drakon. Then he stopped, then yelled, pointing at the dangling things. I squinted to see, and cried out in horror! They were heads, and not just any heads. The heads of Brandy and Sonya! Every vampire present, jumped from their seats and began lunging at Drakon. Draven went too. I couldn't move. My best friend was dead. I watched Drakon trying to fight off all the vampires. I didn't know what to do. I had to get away from this man who was always destroying my life. I had to leave, so I ran. I ran and ran. I didn't stop running. I ran down the mountain. I ran past the village. I didn't stop running until I hit the ocean. Even then I didn't want to stop. I bored a boat to America. That's how I got here. After I got off the boat I felt like I still had to run. I had to get away. I ended up clasping on the step of a hotel. The owner just happened to be there. He found me. I was sick, and weak. He gave me this place to stay. He even got me a doctor. As you can see, the doctor found out that I was pregnant. After finding this out the hotel owner, made this my home. He even gave me a job. I regret running from the castle, but I wouldn't ever go back. Never again.

I finish the interview. The reporter sits a crossed from me, looking very pale. I look down, and run a hand over my stomach. "You don't really, think I believe you. Do you?" asks the reporter in a shaky voice. "I don't have to believe you do. I can see it all over your face." I tell him smiling. I know he can see my fangs. He stands up and hurries to the door.I flit over to it before he can get there and block him. He yells in fright. "You're going to print the story, right?" I ask. He nods quickly, and I move for him to leave. He's out the door in a flash. I walk to my room, and curl up in my bed. A tear runs out of my eye as I think about my wedding day. I put my hands on my bloated belly and close my eyes. Hoping to dream of my sweet Draven. I freeze, as I feel a hand run over mine. "Akita" the person hisses, in the dark . "Draven." I reply.
