Rantipole | THE VAMPIRE DIARIES [COMPLETED] (1)

eighty | no more heartbreaks

With a sigh, Annabelle woke up to find herself alone in the penthouse and still inside of the cage.

She went to stretch her legs, only to stop when she heard the sound of scraping on the floor of the cage.

With furrowed eyebrows, she slowly moved her legs and tilted her head to the side to see a brand-new phone lying just in front of her.

With a blank look now on her face, she said, "Well, that's just brilliant. Not only has he chosen to take my phone from me, but he also decided to go out of his way and get me a new phone after snapping my neck."

After letting out a groan, she went to stretch her arms, only to let out yet another groan when she found herself incapable of moving one of her arms and when a stinging pain started the second she moved her arm.

She slowly turned her head to look over at the chain and handcuff that was attached to her wrist and arm before she said, "Seriously? It's not bad enough already that he has me trapped in this bloody cage? Now he wants to keep me chained to this damned cage? That's just great."

Just as she went to slump back down, she suddenly stopped when she felt something poke the back of her head.

With a sigh, she said, "Lucien, if this is your attempt at getting some fun from having me chained inside this damn cage, then I suggest you go elsewhere and find something else to entertain you."

It was then that she heard a voice ask from behind her, "Who the hell is Lucien?"

As soon as she heard the voice, she quickly straightened her back and said, "Kai? How the hell did you even get in here? I thought there was some spell to keep other sire lines out of here."

After suddenly appearing in front of the cage, he replied, "How else? I siphoned it away." Then he gestured towards the bars and asked her, "And why the hell does, uh, Logan have vervain on these things?"

With a groan, Annabelle asked him, "How the hell should I know? He probably did all that when I had my neck snapped the first time around before he took me here."

With a shake of his head, Kai said to her, "Okay, I'm not even gonna comment on how much you sound like crap."

With a sigh, she replied, "You just did."

With his head tilted to the side, he asked her, "Oh, I did?" When she nodded in response, he shrugged his shoulders before he said, "Oh well. Anyways, did you know that he has, like, a spell on this thing?"

After looking back at Annabelle and seeing the look she was giving him, he said, "Oh, so you do. Right. My bad. Any who, the second I find out how to, uh, get rid of the vervain, I'll be able to suck up that spell. No problem whatsoever." After his phone vibrated and he pulled it out to look at the notification before he said to her, "Okay. So, minor problem. Apparently Logan bit, uh, what was her name again? Camryn? Camelot? Cambree?"
