Dark Castle [COMPLETE]

The Feeling

I'm still here. Chained. Lonely and cold. The most hateful thing is I don't even know how long I've been prison in here. I didn't even see the sky as I just realised that they held me at the basement prison.

Hell. I'm starving and Elizabeth neither that old woman never visit me after they dragged that man out. But the two beastly guys sometime will check on me from time to time. Its not like I can escape from here.

"He must be starving and skinny now!!" I heard a loud yelled from outside of the cell. Its her voice but in different tone.

"Then how would you present him to mother without any flesh and not enough blood to feed??" Now I know. Elizabeth worried that my condition make her mother disappointed. Not because she worried about me.

She is sure two faces bitch. I grunt in swearing. I suddenly hate her for God's sake!! I remember the way she kiss me at the first time we met. Her tender kiss make me think that she actually share the same feeling as me.

Hate that I ever fall for her. Her beauty blind me and make me feel this misery. She is the reason I being held in here. Right now! That is what I want to believe.

"Good morning Yixing." She shows up with her smile and once again I melt. Her smile surely make me weak.

"How would I know its morning or not." An ironic tone make her giggle. I tried hard to keep my anger to her so I will not be fool again.

"Yeah .. silly me. Now you have to eat or you'll lose all of your energy." She said while proffer a spoonful of .....

Yellow porridge?!

"What is this?? Are you trying to poisoning me??" I want to asked with a stern voice but it come out weakly.

"Why would I do that?" She put down the spoon in regret.

"Its a pumpkin porridge. It will help you to regain your energy." She added. I hesitate but the second she proffer, I can't resist but open my mouth as my stomach growling nonstop.

She shoved the porridge gently to my mouth as I can feel it stung. Maybe because she bite it hard last time.

I finished the porridge in no time and she give me a glass of water. Then we just stare at each other in awkward silence. I really want to ask what are they actually. A vampire?? Witch?? Or a banshee? Just like what that man said?? I shook my head. Fighting any urge to get me into a trouble.

"What is it?" She look at me while sit on the floor. I shook my head again and send her a weak smile. She stand up and went out for a while before she come back with a bowl of warm water and a small towel.

"I'll clean you up while you just say whatever stuck in your head, okay?" She stare into my eyes before run the towel to my face and suddenly I feel refresh. She rub the towel to all of my bare skin while stroke it gently and carefully as if I was actually fragile and easy to break.

"Are you ... purposely ... bait me here ... ??" I search for her eyes while she keep avoiding my stare.

"I didn't. I never bait anyone here." She put the towel back into the bowl and return my stare. Her dark grey orbs really leave me speechless. Her eyes is so sincere that makes me wanna believe her even though I know that I only fall deeply to her trap.

"What are you?? A vampire?" My question make her flabbergasted. Maybe she didn't expect that kind of question frkm me.

"Mother will come anytime soon. I have to leave." She insists and walk out. She do it again. Leaving me hanging with unanswered questions. But I feel energetic and a bit refresh because of her.

"The name is Mathilda. The owner of this castle. And you??" Elizabeth's mother finally speak up after staring at me while sitting on her rocking chair.

An hour ago, she command her servants, that is the beastly man to bring me to her study room. When I think this is the best time to escape, they pricked my thighs with some substance and now my leg feel numb. I can't move my leg at all.

"Why bother to know my name when you gonna parch the blood from my body??!" I glower at her which only shows her evil smirk.

"My daughter .. wants you for her own, saying that you taste different from the other." She stand up and walk closer to me who is kneeling in front of her.

Elizabeth want me for her own? Is this the way for her to help me out from here?? Maybe all of the things she did in front of her mother is just an act so she can help me to run away.

"Well?" She stoop down and look straight into my eyes. I catch a glimpse of one figure behind Mathilda. Her sparkling dark grey orbs make me stunned before she dissappear.

"I have no attention to say any information about myself." I send my death glare to her and she suddenly laugh hysterically.

"You're too brave young man. Not like the other who become an obedient dog just to beg for their life." She grin. Her grin really look creepy and I bet if she grin in front of any kids, they either faint or run away crying.

"The other?? You mean your victim??" As sarcasm as my tone, my eyes roll to annoyed her more. This time I didn't care anymore. Better to die bravely rather than begging for her mercy which is cheap and stupid.

"you being stupidly brave!" She growled but I don't have a time to be afraid of her. I must see Elizabeth to safe my own life.

"Honey! .. bring him away from me or I'll make him loss every drip of his blood and give his flesh to Rost." I lift my face and saw Elizabeth standing in front of me with her smirk while pulling my wrist up.

"You're mine now." She say while her eyes clouded and unreadable. I can feel a dangerous aura from her and its make me confused.

What's her plan???
