The Betrayal

The Truth.

So here's what you all have been waiting for.

Disclaimer! Mine mine all mine!

The truth.

"Dmitri will you excuse us? You can come get her in an hour. I will protect her with my life, you know that."

"Yes Sir, protocol does not allow that but I will for you." This showed me how loyal Dmitri had been to David over the years.

He looked at my outfit and I became conscious of how it had risen up, it was already so short, "You didn't change."

"I didn't get time."

"Are you cold?" he asked and till then I hadn't even noticed but realized that it was windy and chilly so I nodded.

"A little."

David had changed into a white T-shirt and grey Nike pajamas with a grey hoodie with a zipper. He took the hoodie off and wrapped it around me revealing his half sleeves, well fitted white shirt. I wondered for a second wouldn't he feel cold? But he was a vampire; he wouldn't get sick like me.

"Do you remember how I found you when you got kidnapped?" he asked me looking at me intensely.

It was time to be honest. "David I didn't even know I had been kidnapped till I saw my family alive, it triggered something. I remembered the kidnapping, Sloan dying, the girls in the bathroom, the dreams I had seen were real, a fragment of my memories which I had forgotten."

"The girls in the bathroom.. I compelled you to forget that, you shouldn't have remembered that." He said looking astonished. "This means someone compelled you to forget the kidnapping too."

"But I remember you said something about getting the call traced?" him compelling me was the least of my worries. I remember I asked him to make me forget. But who else had compelled me to forget?

He nodded. "I lied. I'm going to show you what happened, just relax your mind."

"Okay." I said as he put one of his hands on my neck and the other on my temple and soon thereafter I was in his memory.

(David's POV)

I was worried sick, rushing from corner to corner trying to find Elizabeth. God knows how long she's been missing, I can't even think of where to start the hunt from!

How did I let this happen! I will be damned if I let anything happen to her. No one was letting me leave the castle, it had been on high alert and they had put me in a command office where I could lead an army through there but they said I would be no help on the outside. We needed all brains on deck.

My phone rang. Sloan. This was no time to talk but I picked up hoping he might have a lead on Elizabeth.

"What?!" I all but shouted hotly.

There was no sound... in an instant I out two and two together. "Who is this?"

I could hear her breathing in the background, I could recognize her anywhere. "Let her go you son of a bitch! I will find you and torture you till you regret ever being born into this world you pathetic motherfucker." I said in my rage.

The man at the other end of the phone just chuckled and put the phone down.

My first plan of action was to get the call traced, but it proved more difficult as it was a shorter conversation than a minute, it was barely 30 seconds. It was also by an untraceable number and the little we could uncover were proxy servers bouncing from one place to another.
