Taken By A Vampire Playboy

Chapter Sixteen :

*Iris's POV*

I could hear people talking in hushed voices around me, but my vision was completely dark.

Here and there I could catch pieces of the conversation at hand; they were discussing what to do with me.

A very alluring male voice seemed to be dominating most of the decision making.

"If she lets us have the girl, I get her first. You can have what's left when I'm done."

I shuddered at the thought of what could possibly happen to me.

Another voice entered the debate. This one was also male, but much higher pitched.

"You do realize that Micah has probably already started searching for her, right? We'll have to deal with him before we can have our way with the girl."

A cold hand brushed against my cheek and I cringed.

"Oh? Seems as though our little captive is awake. I suppose you've heard our entire conversation, correct?"

The male with the higher pitched voice paused, waiting for me to answer.

I gave no response.

"No answer? How rude."

Whatever had been covering my eyes was removed and I immediately winced at the blindingly bright light.

Once my eyes had adjusted, I found myself face-to-face with an alarmingly handsome young man.

He smiled and began to speak, "There now, I bet it's probably nice to be able to pair a voice with a face, now isn't it?"

I nodded, unsure of what to say.

The man smiled again, showing off a pair of impressive fangs.

A vampire, of course.

"Now then, my name is Royce, and that is my brother Malik."

He gestured to an equally striking man sitting in the corner of the room.

Upon further inspection, I could tell they were identical twins. Both of them shared the same stark-white hair, crimson eyes, and sharp features.

"Enough with the cheesy introductions Royce, get to the point." Malik spoke from where he was seated.

"Fine, fine," Royce dismissed his brother with a wave of his hand, "You see, Lady Daphne ordered us to kidnap you from Prince Micah. Right now we are currently awaiting further instructions from her witchiness. But, if all goes as planned, you should belong to us very soon."

He smiled at me cheerfully, revealing his fangs again.

A loud knock at the door interrupted our little meet-n-greet.

Royce let out an irritated sigh and went to answer it, "Speak of the devil, looks like the witch has arrived."

Oh goody.

I turned my head and let my hair fall over my face, hoping that she'd leave me alone.

"Well, well, looks like you boys have your work cut out for you. You actually managed to get her here in one piece."

Yeah, like you care if they got me here in one piece you bi-

Before I could finish my though, a large chunk of my hair was grabbed and my head was hoisted off of the table I was laying on.

"Oh, you're awake. That means you'll be able to feel me beat the ever-loving shit out of that pretty face of yours."

Daphne laughed and launched me across the room by my hair, causing me to smack into the nearest wall with a sickening thud.

Instantly, blood began to drip into my eyes from somewhere on my forehead.

Ouch.

I could hear Daphne come up behind me and laugh again, "Did that hurt?"

She landed a kick to the back of my head, causing me to see stars.

I gritted my teeth and rolled over to face her, "Ya know, I didn't think it was possible for someone to be such a bitch. But you have totally exceeded my expectations."

I smiled at her defiantly, earning me a sharp kick to the stomach.

"You have little room to talk, rat."

She dug the heel of her shoe into my thigh, and I could feel it puncture the skin.

"By the time I'm done with you, Micah won't even want to breathe in your direction."

Daphne picked me up by my hair once again and threw me across the room, but this time, much harder.
