The Switch *Stopped*

The Switch - Chapter 6

Roses  POV Hey so this should clear things up a bit. Sorry the word hell is in this chapter a lot :P

I woke up feeling groggy but not tired enough to fall back asleep. As I opened my eyes the thoughts of the previous night came flooding back to me. His hands on my leg. His lips on mine. 17. Purple eyes. I mean seriously he really shouldn’t wear those contacts they just make him look creepy. I guess that suits him though. I snickered and got up and started to put on a pair of old torn up jeans and a thin shirt.

I exited my room, grabbed some toast and sat down at the table and pulled out my new novel a romance. I sighed and got lost in how the characters lives were perfect.

“Rose I am going down to the shop!”  My Aunt Linda trudged out of her room and down towards the store.

“Okay bye.”  As soon as she left I put down my book and started to sing.  Lyrics flooded my mind instantly and I got up from the table and started to dance around the small kitchen.

The vines wrap up your arms.

Ivy crawls its way over your body.

Thorns pierce your heart.

I hear clapping as I finish my made up melody and I turn around to see Thorn. Thorn what was he doing here.

“What the hell are you doing here?” I asked. How did he even get in?

“Oh I came to talk to you about your.” He paused for a moment as if searching for the right word. “ Difficulties.”

“Difficulties?” What was he talking about?

“Yeah. Haven’t you looked in the mirror recently?” Mirror? Was he insulting me? Wait I thought I saw that I had purple eyes earlier. Oh hell no…

“No.” I managed to get out.

“Well go look babe.” He growled. Ew.

“I am and do not call me that.” I rushed into my room and saw that my once tanned skin was now an ivory color and my eyes were defiantly purple. Uh-oh they were just like Thorn’s….

I stomped back out to the kitchen. “What the hell happened to me?! Why did you do this?”

He smirked at me. “ I didn’t do anything to you princess this is how it happens.”

“How what happens? And enough with the pet names!”

He chuckled. Man what was his problem? I can’t believe I liked him. “Well for starters your temper just makes me more attracted to you.” I almost gagged at that very moment. “ And that was not a pet name you are a princess.”

“A princess of what?”

“Faerieland.”

Okay this guy had problems. Me a princess? Of Faerieland? Seriously this guy must be on something.  “What the hell is Faerie….” But before I could finish my sentence he punched me in the side of the head and I blacked out.

Ugh! My head hurts like hell! I sat up and rubbed my cheek to find that it hurt. A lot. I looked around at my surroundings to find that I was on a thing that could barely pass for a mattress and the rest of my surroundings, well looked like a jail cell. A toilet in one corner metal bars straight ahead and a small wooden table that barely came up to my knees. A plate of bread and a glass of water were on the table but all I wanted to eat right now was meat. Raw.

“Hey babe.” I looked up again to see that Thorn was leaning against the metal bars and smirking at me.

“Where am I? I demanded.

“Why you are in your kingdom. But you are in our house not the fancy castle, which is far far away from here. Just keep that in mind.”

“Wait, OUR house? Is this considered a house?” I looked around at my surroundings hardly seemed like a comfy home to me.

“Yes mine, your and our fathers.”

“Our fathers?” I asked. This was just more confusing by the second.

“Yes my father and your are brothers which makes me your cousin.”

I kissed my cousin? Now that is just wrong.

“But my father is gone.”

“Nope, He’s alive. And your “Aunt Linda” Is actually your aunt. She’s my mother. Her actual name is Moonbeam.” Weird name I thought.

“Who’s my mother?”

“Wow, you’re stupid. Just like mother said. She’s the Queen of course.”

“Why hide me away then. Why can’t we live in the castle?” This is one screwed up plan.

“You are an accidental child. Your mother hates my father for getting her pregnant and banished him from the castle. Your father is actually a human. You got your mother genes. He wants to rule the kingdom but he couldn’t do that since he is a mortal. He needs a faerie and with you next in line there was only one way to do that. Marry you.”

“Marry my own father?”

“Yes.”

“But who’s the princess now? Why couldn’t he just marry her?”

“At the castle is your twin sister Rose. But she is a mortal.” I gasped. A sister. I had always wanted a sister.

“But why did you switch us? And wouldn’t the Queen I mean my mom notice she had two kids?” That part seemed a little fishy.

He laughed. Seriously he needs to stop doing that its weird. And Creepy. “ Yes the Queen did notice she had to children but she thought the mortal one died at birth. The reason Uncle Storm hid you is that he didn’t know which one was a faerie or if both of you were. He had to separate you to make sure.”

“So I am a princess, I have a twin sister and I am going to marry my evil human father?”

“Yup.”

It was to much information and I passed out.
