Eternal Mystery | ON HIATUS!

Chapter 18: Seers & Escape

I sat in that cell for hours. Thinking of ways to escape this vampire. As I was thinking someone came into the dungeon. "Miss. Kennedy." The vampire from earlier said to me.

"Yes, the vampire I still don't know the name of."

"It's Reed." He said. I nodded my head in response.

"Okay, well Reed, what do you want?" I asked him, glaring at him the whole time.

"My medical team is going to run a few tests on you, I hope you won't mind." He said.

"Of course I'm going to mind! For all, I know your medical team will suck my blood." I shouted a bit.

He waved his hand dismissing me. "No, my medical team is human, well for now at least. Soon they will become lunch." He said.

"How are they human?" I asked him confused. "Wouldn't you vampires suck them dry?"

Reed laughed at my assumption. "No, Alayah. I've compelled them to do as I say, so right now they aren't in there right mind to say."

"Oh," I say. Reed unlocked my cell and untied me from the chair but quickly tied my hands behind my back. He led me out of the cell and into a bright white room. It reminded me of a hospital room, but much bigger.

"Lay down there," Reed said pointing to the white bed in the center of the room. I did as I was told, even though I didn't want to go through with this. I'd rather live then die like Aunt Charlotte did.

3 nurses came into the room and began getting started. They stuck an iv in my arm, did a vision test, checked my weight and height, etc.

Once I thought they were done, they weren't. Those were only the basics and now they were going to dig a little deeper. "Look, can you guys just get this over with? I'd rather be in my cell than in here hooked up." I complained.

Thankfully the test finally ended.The last thing they did was draw my blood to test it and I was free to go back to my cell. Reed took me back and tied me once more to the chair.

"No moving or trying to escape." Reed clarified before leaving the prison area. I was about to go to sleep when Cassie's voice jolts me awake.

"Alayah!" She cried in a cheerful voice.

"What?" I quickly responded wanting to know why she was so excited.

"Kaden is on his way to get you!" She exclaimed. How would she know?

"How do you know he is?" I asked her a little confused. Where did she get this information?

"They forgot one thing. I can communicate with Kaden's wolf and vice versa. He said they are on their way here. Now!" Cassie said.

I let out a sigh of relief when I heard the news. They are coming to get me! "Do they know where I'm at?" I asked her.

"No, but they have a feeling you are with the king of vampires at the moment. They know exactly where that place is because they had to go there to do deals and things like that." Cassie explained.

"Oh, okay," I said. I finally let my head drop into a very uncomfortable state to get some sleep. Testing takes a lot out of you I'll tell you that.

~0-o-0~

I woke up a few minutes later, or maybe it was a few hours, I'm not sure. I heard the door of the dungeon open and a figure came inside. It wasn't Reed, I could see that much. "Hi Alayah," the figure said. It had a cloak on so I couldn't see the person's face.
