16 hours later and I had landed in a airport called Manchester International Airport. Lena had left me at the other airport alone after telling me to keep my identity a secret. I only had a small carry on bag because Lena said I couldn't take anything else in case bugs had been planted. Whatever the hell that meant. I stood up and grabbed my bag from the upper storage place. All I had were a few pictures, a change of clothes, and a teddy bear my father...JJ....had given me when I was 5. I grabbed my bag and walked off the plane. I began walking in a random direction. Out of nowhere a arm grabbed my shoulder. Fear shot through my body and I froze.
"Calm down sweetie it's okay. My names Evelyn. Lena said you would be arriving shortly. I'm sorry I scared you I know the last 48 hours have been hectic for you." A lady said.
I turned to see a short but pretty lady in front of me. She was about 4'11 which was small compared to my 5'6 frame. She had bright blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. She couldn't have been older then 42. She had a slight smile on her face and a blush creeping to her cheeks. I took a deep breathe trying to calm my self.
"Your gonna be staying with me for awhile until things calm down a little. It's gonna be okay. I promise. I'll explain some things to you after we get you to my house and settled in. Follow me dear." Evelyn said as she timed and started walking.
My mind was so numb I followed blindly without thought or feeling. Outside the airport Evelyn led me to a white Cadillac. It was nice. Nicer then anything I had seen back home. She must have a lot of money. Or something. I climbed in the passenger seat and we took off. I watched out the window as a city passed by. What I assumed to be Manchester. After a short while Evelyn spoke up.
"We have quite a drive. About 2 hours. If you want to nap I'd do it now. Maybe you'll feel better if you nap." She said.
I laid my head on the glass and closed my eyes slightly listening to what she said. She began rambling.
"I can't imagine what you've been through. I know it's confusing and you probably have a million questions. After you get settled and we've had dinner I'll answer as many as I can without putting you in danger. There's a few things you should know before we get to my house. I have six....." I didn't hear what she said after that as I had already dozed off.
"Aurora honey we're here" Evelyn stated.
I sat up and rubbed my eyes. When I looked out the window my mouth fell agape. We were in front of a castle, and when I say castle I mean a straight castle. Behind me was what appeared to be a maze on either side. In front of the castle was a fountain. The castle itself looked enormous. It was older and like something out of a movie.
"You live in a freaking castle" I said shocked.
Evelyn looked at me and sheepishly smiled.
"You get used to it. Come on let's go inside so I can show you to your room." She replied.
I climbed out the car and grabbed my bag. When we walked in the doors I was still in shock. There was a grand staircase on either side. For a older castle it was very miserably decorated. I looked as Evelyn disappeared down a hall so I sprinted to catch up with her. We walked for a few more minutes until we stopped in front of a red door.
"This is your room. The black door straight across is my son cades. Try to avoid him best as possible. He's what we'd call a crab. If you have a emergency he can help but I would steer clear. I'll leave you alone. At dinner time I'll send one of the maids to fetch you." Evelyn stated then turned and left.
I'm so gonna get lost I thought to myself. I opened the door to my new room and was beyond shocked. It was 3x the size of my old room. The floors were a black marble and the walls a deep red. In the center of the room was a king size bed with a red canopy. There was a large book shelf on one wall and a desk on the other along with a massive tv. Too the left of the room was a door that led into a closet bigger then I've ever seen. There were dozens of shelves and rows of racks to hang clothes. In the middle was a cushion chair and a huge mirror. Back in the room to the right was a door to an en-suite bathroom. The floor was white marble and the walls were a charcoal grey. There was a large claw foot bathtub and also a large walk in shower with rock like tile. It reminded me of a jungle. The shower head was a waterfall spout. The vanity was a grayish white marble with a double sink and about a dozen draws. The whole thing was breath taking. As I walked in the bathroom to admire it I caught my reflection in the mirror. I stopped to looked at myself. My normally bright green eyes looked dull. My long brown hair was tangled and knotted. I looked a mess. Don't get me wrong I'm not drop dead gorgeous but I'm okay. I'm 5'6 and quite curvy. I have a perfect hour glass figure. Everyone used to comment me on my doll like face. Now I just looked defeated. I decided to take a shower and then went to lay on the king bed. It was one of the comfiest beds ever. It didn't take me long to fall into a deep sleep.
