I am the Daughter

Teary Eyes (24)

I hear the door softly close as he leaves alone to gather my thoughts. My best friend tried to kill me. If Cyprian wasn't there I may have died, or whatever Leon wanted to do. My friends couldn't even say bye to me. They left me here, I could be dead and they wouldn't care. Not to mention I haven't seen Sterling. "Princess." A soft knock on the other side of the door. "Yea?" I ask as a young women walks in.

"I have news regarding the attack, if you want to hear." She says and I quickly nod my head. "Well most of the hunters are dead, they're still looking for the leader and the hunters have called upon other leaders. It's a full blown war. We may not be safe here. The hunters know you are not with your father so they figure your kept here. We need to move you to a new location." She says softly. "And where would that be? I don't even know where I'm at now."

"We need to bring you to the castle in Iceland." She says as she begins to rush around the room. "And why there?" I ask annoyed. "Because you are the target and the castle in Iceland will prevent any wars to come, princess." She adds on as I tsk my tongue. "And you think that I can't fight? I wasn't raised like you." I say harshly as I fidget under the covers. "You are in no condition to fight much less move so stop." She says watching me closely.

"I feel fine." I say honestly. "You've have a broken leg, burns on that same leg from the motor of the cycle. Not to mention you have a concussion, and had a dislocated shoulder. You are in no shape to do anything." She says as I roll my eyes. "I can't sit here all day and stare out the window that's not even in here." I say with a smug.

"I-" she starts before I cut her off. "Get me some crutches at least, I can't sit here all day. How long have I been in here?" I ask as she hurries around the room. "Three days. I'll call someone to get you something to move on. We move to the castle tonight at 9. I'll send someone to pack your stuff." She says as she hurries out the room.

Before I know it I hear a light knock and the doctor walks in holding a phone. "Who is it?" I ask in a whisper. "Your father." He says as I groan and take the phone from him. I put it up to my ear. "Hello." I say. "Now what the hell were you thinking!? Riding motorcycles! I don't care if Cyprian is your friend you don't just do something that careless!" He yells as the doctor nods his head and leaves me alone to my raging father.

"I'm sorry." I whisper as he groans. "All I do is try to keep you safe and you do the most dangerous thing possible?" "I said I was sorry." I add on. "I'm just trying to keep you safe! From now on you are not to leave the castle for any reason. You have no reason to anyway." He says as I calm myself. "Am I even allowed to go outside?" I ask through clenched teeth.

"No." He says and I begin to yell in the phone. "You're going to leave me inside like some fucking pet! I can't sit in my room all day father! If you don't want me to kill everyone that walks into my room you'll let me outside. Whether I have a weapon or not I will find one or make one and your graveyard will grow." I spit out darkly.

"You have no right to threaten me. You will never threaten my staff or my friends again. You will be locked in your room all day, food will be brought to you. No company is allowed. I will make the arrangements to allow you books and that's it." He says as I begin to cry and I throw the phone against the wall.

The doctor hurries in to see my tears and the smashed phone against the wall. "Everything ok?" He says wide eyed. "Peachy." I say as I lay back down on my bed. "I have those crutches for you." He says as he pulls them out from behind the door. "Thanks." I say as I watch him nod his head. He sets them by my bed and quickly leaves before turning off the light leaving me in the dark.
