Babygirl

19

Kida-Rose POV

It was eleven forty five and Anna and Andre had left a while ago. The doctors had given me a check up a few minutes ago and they specifically told me not to make any kind of sudden or harsh movement or else I could damage myself more; yet here I was with intent to do that exact thing. I could die if this was all some sort of sick joke, but something deep inside me was telling me that, maybe just maybe, this could all be true.

I huffed, throwing my legs over the edge of the bed and slowly taking the IV out of my arm before slipping off the blood pressure band and the breathing mask. I used the bed as support to stand up on wobbly legs, balancing myself until I was sure I could support my own weight. I winced a few times but once I was sure I could support myself I stood up straighter, slowly stepping towards the door.

I made sure the coast was clear before dragging to the elevator.

"You're taking to long" I jumped when Heath appeared beside me, looking at him like he was fucking insane. Well I'm sorry I'm hurt and can't move like the goddamn flash!

"How is this going to even work?" I sassed and Heath rolled his eyes, grabbing my wrist tightly and in an instant we were in a kitchen of some sort. It was huge to say the least. The floors were a sparkling marble and the countertops were as well. People were bustling around, sweating and busy at work. They barely even realised that Heath and I had just appeared.

"Sinclair's getting married today..." He started off and my eyes widened.

"What?!" That sentence was like a stab to the gut for some strange reason. I could feel my heart hammering against my chest as a ball formed in my throat.

"If...if I'm his girlfriend then why the fuck is he marrying someone else?! Cause he sure as hell ain't marrying me?" I raved as Heath dragged me through the kitchen. I had no idea where all this anger was coming from. I met the guy like once. I think?

We came to a stop at a random wall and I again stated at Heath like he was insane. This guy is fucking with me and I'm going to die from the liver failure. That's the tea sis. I huffed, watching as he felt around the wall until he pushed back a loose brick, revealing a door of some sort,

"I won't have to explain anything to you once you remember. Sinclair is my annoying little nephew and even if he doesn't like me I love him a lot. I'm tired of seeing him sulk around like a little bitch so hurry up"

He yanked me into the space and I stumbled forward, looking in awe at the shelves of books that lined the place. The door rumbled close behind us and I gaped at the jars of weird herbs and objects? There were crystals and candles all over the place and I ran my fingers over the portraits on the wall. This place was definitely older than me.

"Come child..." A woman appeared from the shadows, surprisingly she had a welcoming smile on her face and I instantly felt like I could trust her.

"I'm Delphine" I took her hand and she led me to couch where a series of items were laid out on the coffee table.

"I'm going to turn you into the Queen of Lust"

"How is that going to help me remember Sinclair?" She didn't answer, just smiled at me.

"Don't worry child, all will soon be revealed. Just lay back, close your eyes and take a deep breathe" I did as told, closing my eyes as Delphine started muttering under her breath.

Her muttering slowly became zoned out by a constant ringing in my ear. It felt like the room was shaking as my body seemed to be encased in flames. I tried to open my eyes but they seemed to be glued shut. I opened my mouth to let out a scream but not a sound would come out. Someone or something held my body down to the couch as an eerie voice sounded in my ear.

"You are my ticket to get exactly what I want"

My eyes snapped open to see a shadowing figure looming above me, swirling blood red eyes stared back at me with a smile of pointed teeth like daggers. Tears ran from the corner of my eyes and the creature only smirked wiping them away.

The place was eerily silent before a moment before a scream ripped from my throat.

Sinclair POV

I shot up, breathing heavily as beads of sweat winded down my forehead. Her dark brown eyes were invading mind. She was all I could think about, everyday, all day and in a few hours I'd be married to someone who wasn't her. The only reason I'm ever doing this is for her, even if I can't have her I want to make sure she's safe and happy and if marrying Kendra guarantees that then so be it.

The entire kingdom was bustling about this wedding, anyone who was anyone was invited. Kendra was excited as hell about all the attention she'd be getting and the fact that she'd be marrying the and I quote 'love of her life'. You and I both know that was all a facade; she just wanted the throne and I, unfortunately, am her ticket.

I didn't get another chance to breathe before my bedroom door burst open and my parents stepped inside followed by a series of maids and butlers and I sighed. Best I just get this over and done with.

"Aren't you excited Sinny?" my mother moved to hug me but I swerved, glaring at her as harsh as I could.

"Don't call me that! You don't have the right to and don't think that I'm doing this cause you want me to. I'm doing this because I want my babygirl to be safe so fuck off with the congratulations because Kendra is the last person I want to see walking down that aisle to me" I sneered at my mother and she tensed up as my voice became deeper.

It's become harder and harder to control Arson. He's been moody and angry and all out broken. He can't stand the thought of Kida being with someone else much less actually checking up on her. We haven't seen her or heard her voice or her laugh in weeks so don't judge me for being irritable.

Something flashed in my mom's eyes all of a sudden and not a moment later she was clutching her chest. With a harsh cough blood spilled from her mouth and frankly I didn't feel an ounce of remorse for her.

"Edgar" she croaked falling to the floor and my dad was immediately at her side, clutching her to his chest as her eyes rolled back and her body started convulsing, more blood running from her mouth.

"Search this entire castle and find out who the fuck is doing this! And get him ready in an hour I'm not letting this change a thing" my father glared at me as he scooped my mother into his arms.

"You aren't getting away that easily boy"
