Hes lost in his mind

Chapter 7 : Damien

I woke with my vision blurred, and I immediatly remembered what had happened last time.

Why did he do that? More like : how did he do it? Vampire's couldn't just cast spells - except for...?

"He's the prince. I'be been kidnapped by the prince???!!! OK, so he was obviously hoping I'd come out, but - how could this happen? I'd refused to do it! But he'd heard me singing! Oh god...

"good morning, get up. Mr Damien is going to see all his potential's this morning."

"what?"

"you're a potential, Miss 6. You came out a little late, so he'd already got 5, but he had to have you."

"why are you calling me 6? My names-"

"do not say it! The master will punish you! He's named all the girls after what order they were found in."

"but I didn't get a choice to be there!"

"You were on public domain, miss 6, he had every right to take you,"

"but - I was running - there was a vampire breaking the rule! In my house! I was running from him-"

"it doesn't make a difference. If you were outside, he had every right to take you."

I shuddered. If I was here, would i ever be free again?

"now come on. Get up. I will take you to the assemble point."

I got up, not really because I wanted to but because her voice meant business, and followed her out into a large hallway with a huge staircase at the back, and in the middle stood a man, surrounded by 5 girls, all waiting anxiously.

"ah, 6. You're awake. Good. OK, I will explain something now. Listen carefully. You will be in room's of 3. 2, 5 and 6 will be in room one. 1, 3 and 4 will be in room two. Got it?"

We all nodded. I looked around me, taking in faces. I didn't know 2 and 5, which was disappointing seeing that I was in a room with them. 1 was Molly (she's the girl she made the deal with, BTW) which was annoying, seeing as I wasn't going to earn anything.

4 I faintly know, she was a high achiever from our school. She was one of Molly's friends. 3 was one of my friends - not a best friend, but I knew her quite well and she was within my circle. She waved and gave me a sunshine of a smile.

'you want to be here?' I mouthed to her.

'who wouldn't?' she mouthed back.

'ME!' I pointed at myself. She was clearly doing all she could not to laugh.

"OK, good, we understand each other. 6, i need a word with you before you're showed to your room."

I sighed as all the other girls shot me glares of fire, and then they were led off by the same maid who'd woken me up.

"who was the vampire chasing you out of the party?" he asked, angry.

I laughed. "Jealous much?"

He glared at me. I smiled.

"who was he?"

"my BOYFRIEND, John."

He roared in a fury. Then he grinned. "why were you running from him then?"

I glared at him, and told him "SOMEONE turned him into a vampire. I wouldn't be surprised if it was you,"

He glared at me then, really GLARED at me. "how would I know who he was?"

"I don't know - maybe because you're obsessed with me?"

Then I found myself flying across the room, and he hasn't even raised his hand.

"you're not the only one in this competition, you know."

"if you don't care about me, why not let me go?"

"because I don't want to."

I scowled, and then went after the other potentials.

"where are you going?"

"I'm going with the other potentials. If I'm not special, why are we having this talk?" and with that, I flounced up the stairs.
