~ The greatest crimes in the world are not committed by people breaking the rules but by people following the rules. ~

Emaline Throndsone

I was in the middle of a forest, or so it seemed. I was walking to where the wind would take me, moving swiftly along with it, a pull that I felt towards it. I followed the wind to where I found an open lake with still and calm water. Someone was calling me, and I couldn't help but get into the water. I laid there and floated amongst the water , which I've never done before, but it felt like the right thing to do . The water moved as swiftly and as calm as the nightbbut then I was starting yo sink in, being dragged by what I couldn't see. Somebody was calling my name and desperately wanted me yo be with them in the dark wat -

I woke up hyperventilating and had sweat all over my body. It made the clothes I was in wet and the bed I slept on a little damp. It was the same room that I was in when I got here and the same room I dreamt about. I don't remember falling asleep, but I do remember a lot of crying. I must've gotten tired and slept

I got out of bed to go to the kitchen to find something to drink. I made my way through the dark room, trying to find the switch after a lot of clutter I soon did . I took out a glass cup from the cabinet and filled it with cold water, and drank it in an attempt to relax myself from the nightmare I had

"What are you doing up at this time?" Brielle asked from behind me, giving me a shock, causing me to drop my glass, but she catched it in record time

"How the fuck did you do that?" I asked her as my voice gradually increased to a shocked tone

"I'm a vampire it's what I do and don't talk to me like that." She gave me the glass back and didn't back away from me not giving me enough space to resume drinking the water. She didn't put on her piercings today but looked very exhausted she was wearing a formal suit, and I could only guess what the occasion was

"Emaline, focus will you." She brought me back my attention to what she was saying from my thoughts and made me look at her. Her eyes looked drained, and she looked pale.

"What are you doing up at this time?" She asked the question again

"Just a bad night." I answered honestly without giving away anything else

She backed me up to the cabinets, putting both of her hands on either side of my hips. We stood in that position for a few moments that felt like a year, and all she did was study me. As her eyes drifted to every part of my body.

"Do you have nightmares often, or is it just today in particular?" She shocked me with that question. How did she know

"Uhmm - " she stopped my explanation before I could even formulate it

"I'm sure you're familiar with me being your master. In other words, I turned you into a vampire in the return of being immortal, which is why I'm wondering why your fangs haven't come out yet. What you dream of, I will see. What you think of I will hear. I don't need the things you call nightmares to always show up in my head, get over your fears.

Now ground rules. Elizabeth isn't here to babysit you. She doesn't live here, and I do. Rule one: You call me either master or Your Majesty. Anything else than that, I won't hesitate to punish you. Rule 2: Don't leave the house unless stated otherwise. Rule 3: You are mine, Emaline, and I own you, so don't try and do something that would make me want to disown you because all I disown don't exist. Is that clear, Emaline?"

"Yes." I answered with fear, not looking forward to being here any longer

"Yes, what? Emaline." I did something wrong

"Yes, master." I corrected myself before I could find out how she punished people

"Good girl. I'm going out. Don't be moved when you see maids and don't make conversation with them. I'll be back at 10 am at the latest." With that being said, she left me in the house alone while every rule she gave me repeatedly in my mind

I can't believe I'm stuck here for the next three years, but even when that ended where would I even go?
