Lost Crown

The impossible

He quickly dragged me by the rope through the grass. The trees seemed miss placed as a beautiful city towards over them. It was like a futuristic New York! He gave me the cold shoulder as I struggled against the bounds. I shouted, but nobody dare approaches us. I look at Zano as they all did; with fear.

We plunged into the streets, the crowds of people parting for us. It's sad, I might've actually enjoyed the city if I wasn't being kidnapped. The silver buildings sparkled and the smell of fresh made bread flooded the streets. Merchants stood to the side of the streets, yelling out in strange languages I couldn't decipher.

Zano waved away any brave souls daring to come to my rescue. I screamed and struggled helplessly all the way to a pure white building, which seemed to be our destination. He dragged me inside, the clerk straightening up at the sight of him.

"W-Welcome back, s-sir! W-what can I-I do for you t-today?" She stuttered, a wave of terror washing over her. He leaned over the desk, still holding my rope with one hand.

"Make sure no one comes to my room. No one. And make sure no one but me comes out. Understand?" He growled in a low tone. She whimpered and nodded frantically. He smiled in satisfaction and went to the elevators, leaving her shaking.

He stopped at the entrance and pushed the button to go up. He glared at me. "Will you stop struggling?! Now your either going to get in there, or we are walking up one hundred flights of stairs." He growled. I shook angrily. How dare he kidnap me and expect me to comply!

"You don't have the strength for the stairs." I taunted. He growled.

"Stairs it is." He mumbled bitterly. He yanked me in the direction of the stairs, but I was confident. There's no way he would walk up that many flights, right?

•••

We were on the last flight of stairs and my legs felt like Jell-O. "What... The heck..." I gasped out, as he strongly kept pulling me. Finally, we made it to the landing, and he pulled me along to hallway. By then I have stopped struggling, I was just too tired to care. He unlock his room, which was at the very end of the hallway, and flung me in. I landed on the ground, the wind knocked out of me.

"You are too cocky for your own good, Princess." He throws out there as he locks the door. I growl as I struggle to stand.

"Do you want money? I've got none of that! But if you take me back to my house, through that portal thing of yours, I-" I stopped, hysterical. What was this? Did he plan on raping me? I stood there in horror and coward back. "Are you the one who kidnapped those girls in the news? And how does Evan know you?!" I shouted. He punched me with the strength he did on the punching bag. My head snapped back, blood spraying the walls from my mouth.

My blood.

I inched back in horror, my eyes readjusting on his figure. "Don't ask stupid questions. What I did back on Earth in none of your concern now." He snarled. I shivered.

"But we are still on Earth, right?" I whimpered he sighed and chained me to the bed pole. He duck taped my mouth. "I said no stupid questions!" He snarled. He grabbed sweat pants and a loose black shirt and headed to the bathroom. I just sat there in horror.

Earth? Does that mean that he's not from-? And where does that mean I am? She thought, struggling. He came out of the bathroom room, sighing at the sight of me. His clothes from the day were neatly folded in his hand. He was wearing the silky clothes he had taken in there with him.
