Chapter 2:

"You're coming with us."

I stare viciously at Blondie the Asshat holding a gun towards my mom and I, "Like hell I am, you're delusional!" I turn back to look at Mom and she doesn't look at me. "Honey, you should to go with them," she says softly.

"What the hell mom?" I look at her and see the pain in her eyes. "No I can't. Mom, you can't expect me to be okay with this." She looks at me, "Skylar Rose Escentra, you will go with them. I knew that this would happen and you have to go with them now." Resigned and pissed off, I turn towards Blondie and Ginger, as Ginger lowers the weapon. "Fine, but if you so much as aim that weapon towards my mom, I'll castrate you and feed it to the stray dogs, got it?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Where are we going?" I whine, crossing my arms and pouting. I'd been repeating the same thing for seven hours. We were on a private plane to who knows where. They didn't even let me pack my things or bring my phone. They said 'I could be tracked.' Ha as if I'd believe that one, what could anyone want with a freak.

Ginger turned around and gave me an an exasperated look, "Will you shut up?"

I stick out my tongue at him and I catch Blondie smirking. "Stop bothering the princess, Mikal. Her Majesty won't be pleased with you." There they go again, with the whole 'princess' and 'Her Majesty' thing. "I know he's Mikal, but who are you, Blondie? And why do you guys keep calling my princess?"

Both guards exchange a look. Blondie speaks up first, "We're not allowed to tell you that, but I can tell you that my name is Damaki. Anyways we're about to arrive."

"Passengers please take a seat and buckle your seat belts, we're about to land."

Having no choice but to buckle in, I sit down and feel my stomach drop as we start going down.

Once we land, Mikal is the first to stand, "Finally! Let's drop her off and go get some beers!" I start to complain, but Damaki shakes his head, "I can't, I was assigned to her. Plus, I still have three more months until I turn 18." We get off of the plane and into a small grey car.

Mikal grimaces, "It's not like they'll tell you anything, you're the Queen's favorite." I'm starting to get annoyed with them not letting me into the conversation so I yell, "Can you both shut up! You wont tell me anything, but you're talking about everything as if I weren't here!"

They both flinch. "Sorry," they say meekly.

We ride in silence for five more minutes and Mikal pipes up, "We're here." I look up and I see this enormous castle towering over us. "You gotta be freaking kidding me!"

Both guys look over to me confused. "What do you mean?" Damaki

questions.

"This shit? The Majesty. Not just any Majesty. Queen Victoria? Hell no, you gotta be kidding me this is a really bad dream that I'm gonna wake up from."

Both Damaki and Mikal burst out laughing. Huh? "What's so funny, guys?"

"Oh my gosh, that was hilarious. You're like a kitty with that's trying to be a lion," Mikal says laughing. I don't really like them laughing at my expense, especially when they don't want to let me in on the big secret of why I'm here.

"C'mon princess, this is where you an I get off," says Damaki. Princess? Since when did he start being endearing? Oh well, no time to question because as soon as the door opened I'm being dragged out by Damaki.

He drags me into the castle and leads me up the staircase without even letting me look around. He seems to know this place really well, I wonder if he lives here or something? Probably not, seeing that he's a guard. I don't notice that we've stopped in front of a two red oak doors.

"I can't go in, but she's expecting you." I glance as Damaki as he says this, but he seems to be avoiding my gaze. Before I can ask him who's waiting for me the doors open.

"Hello, granddaughter."
