I walked into a dark room , suddenly there was a dim light.

" Sorry that the light is a bit bad at the moment, just give it a few minutes." Damien said behind me.

I looked around the room, it's a large room , in the middle a three piece sofa and two smaller chairs either side , and a wooden coffee table covered in mess , no tv.

" Want a tour of the house ?" I heard Damien say behind me , I turned to look at him smiled and nodded.

" We'll , of course this is the living room ....then over here is the kitchen." He said walking towards a wooden door , I slowly followed .. just like the living room the kitchen is big the deco being mainly black and white and in the middle was a long wooden table.

" Then there are four bed rooms and one bathroom upstairs." He said

" Who stays here then." I asked looking around the kitchen.

" Mainly me to be honest..." He said frowning.

" This is a big house for one person." I said then I took my new phone out, then I remembered I should really call my grandma." So when do you think I can go."

He gave me a apologetic look.

" I'm sorry but you won't be going home for a while." He whispered looking at the floor.

" What do you mean ?" I asked frowning.

" I can't tell you ....I'm sorry." He answered.

" Why not ?" I asked looking at him. " You brought me into a random cabin in the middle of a forest that is meant to be dangerous because of a crow ..... and all the questions I ask , you say you cant answer .... Damien please tell me what is going on."

" I'm sorry Darla , I can't. I wish I could tell you everything but I can't , I'm doing this to protect you." He whispered looking at the ground avoiding any eye contact.

" Protect me from what ?" I asked then frowning ." let me guess you cant tell me that either , well that really sucks Damien, you give me your mothers necklace and you buy me a new phone, What kind of person does that , you know you are one weird person."

I watched as he cringed slightly.

" So you think you are protecting me , well news flash I don't want you to "protect" me , I'm pretty sure I can look after myself , I don't need a baby sitter" I snapped at him then I walked towards the door as I opened it , I came face to face with a man , he looked to be in his early to mid 50's and his hair black and gelled back onto his head , he wore a grey suit, his face was expressionless and to be honest he looked a bit scary.

" Father ?" I heard Damien gasp behind me.

I slowly back away from the door as the man slowly walked in , glaring at me ,his eyes the same colour as Damiens. I continued to back up until I was level with Damien.

" Father , I didn't know you were visiting." Damien said.

" Well , I was in the area so I thought I would pop in and see my favourite son." The man said still glaring at me. " and who is this beautiful creature."

" My name is Darla." I said smiling shyly at him.

" Darla ? that name rings a bell , what is your surname my dear." He asked out stretching his hand for me.

"My surname? Erm.... Morgan sir , my surname is Morgan." I replied still smiling then I hesitantly took his hand and before I could blink, I was in his arms with his hand around my neck , squeezing slightly.

" How dare you ?" He hissed at Damien " HOW DARE YOU !!!!"

" What father ?" Damien asked his eyes wide with shock and fear , I let out a fearful whimper and at that I felt the grip on my neck tighten.
