Inside The Wall

Chapter 2

Hey there! Since there were already some posts i used my free time for adding the second Chapter. The rest really first comes after my exams... ;)  x Zoe

Saia was already the second day here. She had spent the whole last evening telling them about ‘her’ world. She was lucky that Aram didn’t reappeared because he pissed her off – big time. They had eaten the strange food they had here and Saia definitely felt disgusted by it. 

After telling them for some more hours about the ‘outside’ world, she felt exhausted and her head pounded immensely. She felt sick from eating and her body felt rigid. So they went to bed. Alex slept in the room with her, to protect her. She doubt that it was to her protection, she guessed it was more to make sure she stayed here.

When she frowned at the protection thing they told her that Alex was ordered to protect her in case some people were too curious. She still couldn’t understand this, why should she need a human to protect her from other humans? Though she stayed quiet about it. The people inside this wall were strange in her opinion, and she hoped that Zsusa would soon find her.

This morning they went with her to the marketplace in front of the building they were in. They explained her that this building was their center. It was the largest and most decorated. It had a hospital in it, what was to her explained as the healer’s home and their leading people meet up here.

The marketplace was scary for her, she never had seen so many people and that they all stared at her like her something in her face made it only worse. Felix explained her that she was rare, nobody here had so light colored hair or green eyes. Also was she the first person who came from the outside ever.

They were back in Sarah’s room right now and she stared at the ground pale. She was still somewhat shocked from the masses of people at the market and the way they stared at her. She shook her head unbelieving. Here her clan thought this island was empty of humans. Their wall looked for them always like a giant stone from afar.

“You think she will pull herself together or shall I give her something?” Sarah asked worried Alex and Felix. Felix was already on her heels since the early morning again to scribble down everything she said.

“I’m fine.” Saia pressed out.

“Really?” Sarah asked worried. “I can make you a tea to calm you.”

“No.” She scrunched her nose up disgusted. Sarah tried to feed her the tea yesterday but the smell was horrible and the taste even worse.

It knocked on the door and they all turned their heads, when a tall and lanky man appeared. His smile had something dangerous about him and his oily black hair only matched the style. He went over to Saia giving her a once over look.

“You must our intruder? Who would have thought that you are such a young and beautiful woman?” He told her amused, with a sleek voice. Saia only looked at him confused. He turned around frowning. “Can she understand me or can’t she talk?”

“I can understand you very well.” Saia answered frowning, that was quiet impolite in her opinion.

He smiled calculating and looked at her like estimating. His eyes traveled her body lustful and it made Saia shudder, never had a man looked at her like this. It felt disgusting.

“I’m Lord Quran, and you are?” He asked, stretching his hand out for her to shake.

“Saia Temple.” She told him simply, without taking his hand.

“Saia what a simple name.” He told her frowning disapprovingly. She just looked at him confused. Before his attitude suddenly changed again too sweetly. This man was the top of all strange people here. “Saia do you have a fiancé?” He asked smiling. Saia looked at him unbelieving, she was seventeen not twenty-five she had a lot of time to spend before looking for a partner.
