Chapter 11

+coby's point~of~view+ A week must have passed since I first came to this distorted place of Alania's tyranny. My loathing for Alania and her mindless guards burned inside and the cruel treatment they gave all of us just added more fuel to the fire. I thought back to when I was first became a Child of the Night and back to when I first saw Jayden. The icy blue depths of her eyes, her lily scent, her angelic smile and how beautiful and dangerous she always looked. But, she was away from me now, just like my friends.

"Oh, y-yeah, l-like that's-s r-really gonna s-stop me." "Still the stubborn one, yes?" "B-B-Bitches." Two guards marched up to me and gripped me harshly by my arms. I let out a low groan as I fought to be released, but, compared to them, I was an infant. My struggles were just like an infant's too. They drug me to the familiar corridor which held Alania's chambers. Actual FRIGHT began to overwhelm me. One of them opened the door and the other threw me in. I collapsed onto the floor with a dull thud and attempted to immediately pick myself up. But a weight went on my back and pressure went on my shoulders. Pushing me back down the floor. Then, a silk voice, "I have been waiting for you, Coby..." to be continued...
