My Eternal Crush

Meeting the King

The men got out of the car and left me sittting there. And they took the keys out with them. D*mn can't escape with the car.

I looked out into the desert. It was black out there, nothing must dust and cactus. Should i run out there? or take my chances with these wackos?

My decision was made when i saw another car pull up.

I wanted to scream for help, but something caught my eye. A tall man got out of the back of the car. There was something about him though, his actions were so...graceful. He looked perfect. Not like i was attracted or anything but he was just beautiful. He was holding a leash thingy in his hand that led into the car. Maybe he brought his dog.

But then he yanked on the leash and a girl around my age, with a short dress tumbled out of the car. The leash was connected to a collar around her neck. She laid on the ground clawing at the collar around her neck. Omg! she's choking!

The man holding the leash looked at her with disgust. He yelled something at her along the lines of "Why did i ever want to buy a slave?" and then he kicked her in the gut. The other guys around laughed.

My breathing was coming fast. I was torn between helping her. But there was no way i could go up against these guys and escape with the girl.

The man was fed up with the girl and grabbed her by the arm and dragged her. Before the girl was through the door she looked at the van i was in. When she saw me her eyes got round. She mouthed "run" and dissapeared.

Oh my God, i have to get out of here.

I just sat there thinking about the girl, and waiting for my chance to escape. Nathan finally came to the right side door and opened it. "Get out." Now, Heather!

Instead of going out that way, i open the left door and jumped out. I didn't even look where i was going, all i knew was to sprint as fast as possible. I pushed myself harder than i ever had, letting my long legs carrying me far. I didn't hear footsteps behind me.

In the next instant i was tackled to the soggy grass. I had only made it one hundred yards from the stupid car. Someone stuck there knee into my back, making me cry out in pain

"Let me Go! Let me go!" i screamed hysterically.

I was dragged kicking and screaming across the yard to the group of men. "No don't take me back! Please! Just leave me alone!"

Ethan grabbed my arm and growled "Don't think you can escape human. You won't get far." and then he punched me in the stomach.

I wheezed over in pain and sagged in Ethan's grip. It hurt so bad. I looked up with tears in my eyes. The mansion stood menacingly in front of me.

And in the top window stood a figure.

It was too big to be a woman.

ANd he was looking down at me.

I couldn't make out any features but the stare i know i was getting from him felt familiar.

"For crying out loud! Do you not listen to anything?" Nathan growled. "How many times do i have to tell you? DONT HURT HER! You idiot! We are right in front of headquarters, the prince could've saw!"

Ethan paled visibly. "Well he didn't see, and besides it was on her stomach. No one will know."

THe figure in the figure disappeared in an instant.

Ethan picked me up off the ground and pulled me through the doorway.

I stared in amazement at the front room. It was so fancy and big. But  i was pushed through the house, not being able to marvel at the riches. I passed room after room of extravagent furniture and grande fireplaces. In one room, i see the girl with the leash around her throat, and the cruel man. But i barely catch a glance. These people are super rich.
