Rare Flames (HOLD)

Chapter 4- Plans

Alina eyes turned wide filling with hope and excitement. "But how? I can't leave with this choker around my neck." Smile turning into a frown.

The choker was black and filled with runes similar to what the servant Gray, my father slave servant had had on. What it did is depending what runes are written it can stop your flow of power and can even be made so you will follow commands, and it all depended on the runes.

She spoke in a quiet murmur, "Remember last time you tried to get the key.. You didn't come visit me for whole month.. You still won't tell me what happen.." She says, her gaze had tries to meet mine but I avoided it.

I was ashamed. My plan was naive, more like it wasn't a plan at all.

To cut it short I had been caught by mother and whipped on my back till my flesh was bloody raw. It was absolute torture. She tried to get it out of me why I needed the key. Of course I just told her a bunch of baloney which she finally gave up after a month of torture. But I honestly believe she just got bored of it. This is just a game for her.

I huffed then crossing my arms, "No need for you to know." I said coldly, letting her know I did not or would not talk about it.

I glanced at Tobias and saw worry lining his eyes.. I bit my cheek to taste iron coppery taste. Like I had licked a penny.. Ew. Blood tasted gross o wonder why vamps love this stuff.. Maybe its just my blood that's gross..

The key was located in my mother and father chambers. It was one of the safest places guarded by the staff (slaves) my parents were fond of and their loyal servants.. (more slaves)

I gave a sign this was going to be complicated. For now it time to be serious.

"Alright. The plan is going to take a while to do... And it may be risky..."

" Whocares," exclaimed Alina, "Our lives are already over the moment you get married."

I turned to see Tobias looking at his feet playing with his bootlace.

I couldn't help from feeling a bubbling sense of laughter swelling in my chest. Only because she was so absolutely right. I would get married forever stuck, with a demon I will hate. She would be forgotten or found in the dungeon both still resulting in death. Tobias would be either die or sell as a slave.. Damn we were all fuckin screwed. So freaking screwed.

Alina and Tobias seemed to share a look both obviously implying I was crazy. But I didn't care, maybe I was for still having hope that we would get out of this shithole.

"Alright let's begin with you Tibias!"

"What..? Me?" He seemed worried. I wonder why?

"Yes. You after I get my disguise I'm going to hide you somewhere else. Somewhere you blend in." Before he could interrupt I continued, "I'll come back for you don't worry. You will just be in the way here. You will be a distraction to me. And now you?"

"Me.."

"For you I plan to get the key. Then release you and I will escape grab Tobias. Which I will prepare with the items necessary for our escape. We will then run to the Dark forest, which consist of overflowing demonic energy so you will heal up there.. Then we go live in the human world.. And hopefully they give up on us and we live our days in peace." That sounded about right.

I turned to see Tobias eyes looking hopeful. And Alina's doubtful.

"What if your mother comes for you?"

"She wont. I'm not as useful as I seem." I gave a harsh laugh.

Her eyes seemed to soften. "Willow... Don't-"

"It's okay. Everything will go just fine. I know it will." Hopefully they didn't hear how unsure I was about this.

"Now before I attend this stupid damn matchup tomorrow. I plan going to the Black Market, in the morning."
