Royal Blood BOOK 1

Part II

I woke up to some murmuring. I had a vivid memory of what had happened but I was still so confused. What did Elijah mean by I was the last hope? I thought to myself for a moment. I then, attempted to stand up, oh wait I forgot I was fucking chained to the wall. I look around the cell, the stone brick cell was being lit by the window on the other side of the cell. The sun rays hitting the floor and shining on my body. My stomach growls. "Hello" I shout. I hear footsteps and Ellijash steps into my view. "Morning Princess" he give me a smile. I smile back at him. "I'm so hungry could I please get out of these hell hole and get something to eat?" I ask. "Fine, but promise me that you wount try anything stupid." "I promise." Ellijash reaches into his back pocket and pulls a bundle of keys out, he fiddles with the keys for a moment until he finds a silver key with a red dot on it. He steps towards the cell grabs ahold of the lock and twist the key in, unlocking the cell. He then steps towards me, fiddles with the keys once more and finds a black key. He kneels down, putting his face inches from mine. I just stared into his eyes, as he began to unchain me. I never really had looked at Ellijash he was actually quite attractive, with his leather brown eyes, his smooth lips, his hair short and wavy(it remind me of the ocean waves), his body fit and his biceps bulky, his jawline sharp and his neck complimented it perfectly. "All righty your unchained." He saies breaking my little day dream. "Oh, uh thanks" I say stuttering. I stand up, my legs finally being able to gain circulation. I stretch out my back and neck before stepping out of the stone-bricked cell."Finally" I sigh. "Follow me Veronica " Ellijash says."I began to follow him up the black stairway, we soon reach the top and we are welcomed by what seems to be a maid. Ellijash whispers something in the woman's ear she nods her head and walks off. "This way" Ellijash points into a dining room. I walk inside the room and am seated at the long wooden dining table, that's centered in the middle of the room. I look around the room and see portraits of people framed around the walls, and above me is a giant glass chandelier hanging by some chains that are screwed in the ceiling. Below the dining table and chairs is a dark red rug that covers the wooden flooring. I soon hear the sound of metal shifting, I heard it coming closer towards the dining room, the woman that Ellijash whispered to had appeared at the entrance of the dining room, but she didn't enter by herself she pushed a metal cart that had been carrying a plate of food, some utensils and a cloth napkin. She picked the plate up from the cart and set it Infront of me. "Here ya go darling" the woman said. "Thank you so much." I say to the woman. She then grabbed the utensils and the cloth napkin and set it infront of me. She then pushed the cart and left the room, that same metal clanking I heard before, echoing through the hallway. After, I finished eating my plate of pancakes, eggs and bacon, I wiped my face with the cloth napkin. I look up and I see Ellijash staring at me. "Can I help you?" I say making him turn away in embarrassment. "No let's just get you back to your cell." He responds. "I just got out, your not making me go back in there so soon."I give him a sharp glance. "Yes, I am" Ellijash says, not even fazed by my sharp response. I groan, "just an hour, maybe you can give me a tour,or tell me who those people were yesterday." Ellijash looks up at me and gives me a stone cold stare, "H-how do you remember that... Hailey caused a spell on you for you to forget about that mess but... you somehow remember... Hailey was right." "Right, right about what?" I shout "And what do you mean she was suppose to make me forget about that?!?" "I wanted Hailey to cast that spell because I didn't want to have to be the one to explain, but now I guess I must." Ellijash then stands up from the chair and faces towards me, "follow me." I stand up from the chair and then walk towards him. We then, walk down the hall and enter a dim litted room, i look around and sit on a chair that is right behind a desk. Ellijash then sits on the other side of the desk making us sit face-to-face. "Okay what I'm about to tell you you must not tell ANYONE understand."Ellijash says in a stern tone. "Yes, I promise I won't make a peep." I say. "There's no easy way to put this.. but your my daughter.." Ellijash says....
