I noticed Anastasia trembling, like being caught red-handed, and I glanced at the lady who had interrupted.
She smirked, her eyes on Anastasia as she moved closer to us " Instead of you to usher our new guest around, you're gossiping huh?"
I listened to their conversations, getting tense, danger? My hands quickly flew to my neck, to my surprise, my neck chain was missing!
I looked at Anastasia in a daze. She's the closest to me, but never touches me. I'm very sure it's there before I come to the dance floor!
"I'm…uhm Megan, see you later,"she smiled bitterly. I'm very sure she's trying to pass a message; she is very sad, her eyes filled with tears "Goodbye Megan,"she waved. She glanced at the lady. She kept glancing at me till she disappeared from my sight.
" Ahhh," I scoffed, I think I'm the cursed one. Everyone close to me kept hurting, is either they vanished or hurt badly.
" What did you say to her?" I asked the lady, her cold eyes on me, making me uncomfortable and upset. I have never met a lady with this type of aura.
" I will be your best friend from today, I will show you around and guard you" she raised her chin arrogantly.
I frowned. " I don't make friends with strangers" I declined. She let out a laugh.
" But we shared the same room, so we're stuck together," she said and looked at me in amusement. I don't like this feeling. I retreated from the place, going back to my hostel. I suddenly wanted to go away, far away from this place.
To my horror, my phone was also missing, I checked everything in the room, but I couldn't find it. It vanished too, just like how my chain vanished. Mom said the chain is a gift from my grandmother. It detects danger, but now, I don't even need the chain to know my situation. I'm in danger, I felt it.
I sat on my bed, hugging my knees. Mom has no idea it's a trap. I couldn't reach her, and she wouldn't be able to do so.
" So sad? Hmmm," I heard the lady's voice, Alexis, seated on her bed. I flinched. When did she enter? Wait, I think I saw something on the bed, but I didn't pay attention. It's her, I left her In the dance floor and met her in the room.
...
Somewhere in France. At a luxury hotel.
Queen Mia dialled her daughter's number for the second times, uneasy, pacing front and back.
After several rings, someone picked it " Hello?" After hearing her daughter's voice, she sighed in relief, "Oh my God, you scared, how are things there? Anything suspicious?"
" Oh, that's good, remember what you are there for and don't waste any time"
"What do you mean what are you there for?" She frowned at the question. " Anyway, bringing Ezekiel back to life"
Mia continued the conversation, unaware of the situation in school.
…..
I looked at the girl coldly, "Who are you, and where are my things?"
The girl looked at me in amusement and burst into laughter, like I'm kind of a joke to her " Your phone? You thought I took your phone? Well, I don't, but you will never see them, both your phone and chain," she smirked.
Now that she had successfully scared me, it's time to pay her back. I don't know what got to me, I stood up and moved towards her " Where are my things?" my eyes narrowed.
I stood before her, fearless, I'm the future Luna, the mate of the most powerful creature!
She looked at me in amusement, I grabbed her hair and pulled her to the floor-to-ceiling window. "Tell others no one messes with me, and live. What did you do to Anastasia? And where are my things?"
She struggled and freed herself " Are you crazy, how dare you treat me like this? Do you know who I am?" She tried to threaten me.
But,
"Do you know who I am?" I threw the question back to her.
" Relax, Ladies, fighting here is very uncomfortable here, why don't we try another place?" someone said from behind.
"Ahh, you're here, warn her or I will kill her" Alexis complaining, her red eyes glaring at me.
I looked at the guest in surprise. " What are you doing in the ladies' hostel?" I asked the boy, Kelvin, the same prince they are celebrating today.
He chuckled, " Hello, I don't need to introduce myself, I'm very sure your friend told you everything, including our number one dangerous dude," he smirked.
It turned out they heard us; bunches of vampires! No wonder I'm uncomfortable," crazy people," I said to them. I sneered and went to my space.
" She's fearless" I heard Alexis' anger voice.
" Hi Megan, we aren't that bad, all you have to do is trust us," Kelvin said. Alexis rolled her eyes "What are you even saying? Is that how to comfort someone?" She nagged.
"Hey you! We're helping you, and you need to cooperate with us or you won't know how you will die! You will die without knowing what or who killed you!"
" Hmmm, that's better," Kelvin chuckled.
" Thanks"
I rolled my eyes, neither of them is good! Bed of the same feathers! I ignored them, and climbed into bed, my back facing them. I heard their footsteps approaching me.
"Look, Morgan, I knew you understood the situation already, if you can't trust us, why don't you trust your instinct instead?" Kelvin said.
" There's no way you can fight us, I'm telling you, trust your own instinct," Kelvin added. He nodded at Alexis and left.
Then silence. I turned around, I was startled, Alexis' red eyes were staring at me, " Weak" she laughed.
I felt something building inside me, something powerful enough to destroy the world. It's anger, I won't let my anger take over me. Humph!
" I let you pulled my hair because I want to test your tiny hands. But don't think I will let you do that again. You're too human, try to listen to your immortal side" She smiled, showing me her long canines.
Pure Vampire!…I knew it, what Kelvin was drinking wasn't wine but blood!
And listening to myself… I paid attention to myself and focused on the situation too, to my surprise, my inner mind was at peace! Even wanted me to follow them!
But what about the danger sign? If they're on my side, why stopping me from talking to my mom? Why driving Anastasia away?
