My Horrible New Life

Chapter 12: True Feelings

Kesha's Point Of View:

I was frightened when they came to look for me. I thought hiding in the closet was a good idea. I was glad that Danny found me before them. He looked worried. He turned into a purple monster. "What's wrong?"

He shook his head. "He's desperate. He will do whatever it takes to search for something that's not there."

I touched his cheek and ran my fingers across his face. "I'm okay and you're here with me."

He looked into my eyes. It was like he was hypnotized. He pulled me out of the closet and then picked me up. He placed me on the bed. Something seemed off about him. I touched his shoulder. Danny got off the bed and stood there, taking a deep breath. My night gown fell to my thighs as I stood up. My body slowly walked over to him. Before my hand could touch his back, he spun me around. My back was against the bedroom door. His red eyes glowed at me. My heart was racing. He took a breath and pushed himself away from me. "I can't do it." He smacked some stuff off a desk and growled a little.

"Its okay Danny." I wanted to calm him down. But I didn't know how. He seemed frustrated with himself. His back was facing me, shaking his head.

"You don't understand. Teritous will take you away from me. I just got you back damn it." He punched the wall, leaving a dent in it. I slowly walked over to him. My hands ran down his back. He seemed to calm down a little bit. "What did he say to you?"

He slightly turned to look over his shoulder. "If I haven't had sex with you, then you're not mine."

I rolled my eyes. Of course it has to be a sex thing. "So the promise my past life made to you..."

"Won't work." Danny mumbled. He grabbed my hands and pulled me in front of him. "I'm not going to force you to do anything. We'll figure something out." He seemed unsure of himself. I didn't know how these creatures worked. Danny was off his game. This thing really made him worried. I didn't understand why these creatures needed me to help with the past. If Danny was seven hundred years old, wouldn't they remember? "Why can't he remember himself? Why use me?"

Danny's fingers ran across my shoulders. "He wouldn't be able to remember because he wasn't there." Before I could speak, he cut me off. "I'm almost 730 years old. He's only about 220 years old."

I moved away from him and went back towards the bed. "Don't you guys keep history books or records?"

He quietly shook his head. "We used to. The problem with that is, once someone else becomes king. They can destroy books or records." His world was a lot different from mine. We didn't get rid of anything from the past unless it was taken from us. I began to feel dizzy. My knees buckled and I almost fell. Danny caught me. "Kesha what's wrong?" He started freaking out.

A loud booming voice spoke into my head. "Kesha, come here little human. You must give me the information you carry." His voice sounded dark.

My breath shortened. "He's calling for me to come give him the information." I quickly spoke. My eyes started rolling. Danny held me in his arms. My body was starting to feel like jello.

"Don't try to run, don't try to hide. I have placed guards around the house. If Sitheyn comes out, he will be killed. If you want to spare his life, you will do as I ask. My men will bring you to me. Once you hand over the information, then I'll let you go."

I grabbed Danny's hand. My body was shaking a bit. Danny pulled me to the ground and in his lap. His arms held me close, trying to stop the shaking. "The clock has already begun ticking. You have two hours. Don't waste your time." The voice vanished. I opened my eyes. Checking to make sure I was still here. Danny stared at me. "Are you okay?" I nodded. "What did he want?"
