Song Of Chapter- Turning Tables- Adele (8)

I won't let you close enough to hurt me,

No, I wont rescue you to just desert me,

I can't give you the heart you think you gave me,

It's time to say goodbye,

To turning tables (8) ♥

--------------------------> Rubys POV

1893, 1894, 1895, 1896

I was laying on the bed, bored out of my mind. I had been counting in my head as Klaus hadn't come back. I got up and went over to the door.

"Klaus! You can't leave me locked in here forever!" I yelled. I heard a chuckle and a bolt slide. He came in and I took a few steps back.

"Wasn't planning too, and your just as impatient as I remember. You haven't changed." He said.

"Can you let me out please?" I sighed.

"Hmmm...Okay, as long as you promise to behave yourself."

I nodded and shot out the door. I was in a long, marble corridor. There were rooms all the way up and chandeleirs hung from the ceiling along with tapestries on the walls. I went down the hall and came to a darkwood staircase. I could go up or down. Hmm, down. I went down the steps and found myself in another hallway. I went through the nearest door and saw I was in a kitchen. I saw a young girl with auburn hair, bending over a stove. She looked around Elenas age. I cleared my throat and she jumped.

"Sorry." I apologised. "I'm Ruby."

She seemed quite shaken up and when she turned her head to face me, I saw the bitemarks on her neck. Oh god, please tell me he hasn't...

"I'm Grace." She said quietly. A compelled slave.

"What happened to your neck?" I said softly.

She flinched again. "I fell."

I nodded. "Is it painful?"

She shrugged. "A little."

I went over to the other side of the room. I grabbed a glass and bit into my wrist. I let some of the blood drop into the glass before it healed up. I went back to Grace and passed her the glass. "Drink this, it'll make the pain stop, I promise." I said.

She took the cup and catiously drank it. I saw the mark on her neck dissapear. "Thank you, but why are you being so kind to me?"

I sighed. "Because you don't deserve this." I said, grabbing a wet flannel and cleaning up the blood on her neck which was now trickelling down to her shirt. "How many other people are here?" I asked. I mean't how many innocent people Klaus had here.

"Around 10."

I inwardly groaned. "Tell me Grace, how old are you?"

"17."

"Do you have a family?"

She nodded. "I lived with my parents and my 2 year old brother Kyle."

I hate Klaus, more then that, I loathe him. He took her from her family along with alot more people. "I'm sorry."

"What for? You didn't do anything."

"I'm sorry for what he did to you."

She did a half smile and went back to cleaning the counter top. I walked out of the kitchen and jumped when I saw Klaus was standing right in front of me. "I see you met Garnett."
