CHAPTER 10
This made no sense, when my father died he made sure everyone who knew died with him or left. "You know nothing of me or my life so just butt out," I growled. If he knew who I was he could die; I would have to kill him.
"Look, Zhanna-"
"Stop calling me that!"
"-your dad didn't get my parents in the fire. He made sure they survived so we could look after you. The fire before your mother's and father's death. We know that you're supposed to be the savior, we know that you aren't fulfilling that destiny by sitting there with that Wolf. Who did the oracle say you'd be with?"
I looked at the ground and muttered his name under my breath.
"What? Sorry couldn't hear you."
I gritted my teeth and said, "Satana's son. So that makes you..." I glared at him. "He's just a pastime, I needed something to do when I ran and he was it. And now you're gonna take me back?" I raised my eyebrows.
"That's what they told me to do. Besides, I can't have my wife running around cheating on me, now can I?"
The marriage had been planned from the very second I had been born. The oracle had told of a prophecy and it was the devil will marry the angel. Trent's last name means satan in english. My last name is Angel. Nice right? Drexel had been told of this and was okay with it, until he found out I wasn't either. He helped my father set up his own death, talked to Jackal had it all planned out.
"ты мой маленький ангел, (You're my little angel in Russian)" he said and ran the back of his hand down my cheek. "How long did you think you could run before someone noticed?"
I moved away from him. "I'll come back, just don't hurt River or my brother."
"And what about the other girl, Jennifer? She helped you escape did she not? Aren't you guys as close as sisters?"
I covered my eyes with my hand. "Please don't hurt River or Drex or the little boy, that's all I ask," I growled.
"Okay go pack your knives, my men will deal with Jackal's son and the others. The child and your brother will be coming with us, okay, Moy mIliy Angel?" His little angel, I shuddered, but there was nothing I could do. "Go pack I will be there in a second."
I ran to my room, and stopped short when I saw the scene before me. River and Lizzy had two men behind them, but I said nothing. River grinned at me, but then the man behind him, slipped a piece of cloth over River's mouth. A look of hurt passed through his eyes before I walked up to him. I kissed two of my fingers and placed them on his forehead. I could hear him struggling, but I walked away and into my room.
"Eden?" Colton said and ran to me. "I wanna go outside, can we?"
I shook my head and gave him a smile. "Come on, I need to pack my stuff. Have your maid help you." I quickly found the bag that I had previously packed. My knives were all inside. I put the necklace my brother had given me around my neck and grabbed Colton's bag from him.
We hurried to find Trent, when we found him, wrapped an arm around my waist and kissed my neck. "Let's go."
I hated him, but I still walked with him to the car he had and sat idly as men drug Drexel to the car with us, he fought them every step of the way.
I could've fought, I could've tried harder, I could've just let it go. But I didn't. Maybe it was pride, maybe it was me being humble, or just following orders. Why wasn't the world simple any more? I was a human, I couldn't be auctioned off like a house. But I was and there was nothing I could do about it. I had been reduced to nothing and Trent was enjoying knowing that he had broken the savior. I couldn't save them though. Not while I was married to him.
