Clinging into my moms leg I let out a sob, "Don't let them take me mommy."

She looks at me with a sad smile and shakes her head before kneeling down beside me and placing a hand on my back. "Everything will be okay Sky," she says, "I wouldn't let them hurt hair on your head." I managed to ask through my tears, "W-what about Papa?" She thinks for a minute and let's out a sigh, "Your father was just to far gone Alex. I'm sorry." I hug my mom and began to cry even harder. I don't remember the last time I saw him...

Sky...sky wake up!

I jolt awake in a king sized pink bed with hello kitty printed all over it. I slowly realize that I was just dreaming and began taking deep breaths. It was all just a dream I think to myself. It wasn't real. It wasn't her..

I furrow my brows and shed a tear before quickly wiping it away. I hate them. I try to get up off of the strange new bed but I'm pulled back down with a thud. Turning around I look and see my wrist cuffed to the railing on the bed. I look around the room. It's very different from my bedroom at the orphanage. The walls are sparkly white, completely free from dirt, and it smells like a light natural hazelnut. The bed didn't creek, even when I fell down on it. Am I still dreaming? My eyes widen and I feel a terror creep up my spine as I remember what happened. I was kidnapped. How could this happen? How could I let myself get kidnapped? I knew this happens but I didn't know it would happen to me. I should have fought back harder, ran, or scream. I should have cried, plead, and beg them not to take me. Thinking back now I can't remember if I did any of those things. Laying in the bed, I hide under the covers and wait. I still feel a soothing warmness over me. What did they give me? I don't know what they're planning to do to me and I don't want to find out anytime soon. I close my eyes and try to calm myself. Everything will be fine. People survive kidnapping all the time right? Plus Jace would have called the police. He knows I wouldn't just leave and go running through the woods. Eventually, my breathing slows as I start to feel dizzy, and I try not to think about all the terrible things these people could do to me. Before I know it I'm asleep.

I jump up screaming when I hear the door open. "Shhh, don't scream. I'm not going to hurt you", says this muscular man that could barely fit through the door. His tender hazel eyes stared back at the black voidless pair I have. His face is marking with a long scare from his eyebrow to his bottom lip. I look at him with trembling eyes and my stomach begins to turn. I ask him, "W-who are you? Where did you take me"?

"I didn't mean to scare you", says the large man, "I'm Dominic, and you're here to be my princess. I know that sounds a bit strange now, but I'll explain it all to you. Just don't scream. I won't hurt you, I wanna take care of you." I stare at him in disbelief. This guy is crazy. I'm not royalty. I'm just a nobody." You're lying", I tell him, "I'm not a princess and if I was why would you have to kidnap me? I would have just went willingly." He sighs, "How about I take the handcuff off your wrist? Will you trust me then?" I glance at the handcuff I've forgotten all about and then back at Dominic. This could be my one and only chance to escape. I could pretend to believe all of his princess talk, then he'd have no choice but to trust me. It doesn't sound like the greatest idea but he'd beat me when it came to strength any day, so this plan would have to do. Slowly nodding as my plan is played out in my head, I let him begin to undo the handcuff. Please don't hurt me I think to myself. He holds out his hand for me to take, "It's okay", he breathes out in a whisper. I don't want to take his hand. I truly don't, but there's something about it that makes me want to trust him, and I almost grab it for a split second. Blinking, I come back down to earth, "No", I say in the most firm voice I could come up with, "I want to walk behind you." With a nod, he agrees and goes to open the door. I follow him out the room with my heart pounding agaisnt my chest. Everything slows down and the hallway seems to have a never ending wave of identical white doors surrounded by a white wall. There has to be a way to escape somewhere nearby, even if its a window. I don't care how far up I am from the ground. Well, maybe I am a little bit since heights have always made me feel queasy. After what seems like forever, we're finally going down a set of stairs. Forget making him like me. I have to take my chances now. I doge his grasping hand as I bolt down the stairs and begin to search frantically for an exit of any kind. I can hear him yelling out me from behind. Running down another flight of stairs, I can see the front door in the distance. I can almost feel my hand turning the knob. That vision is short lived when another giant man appears in front of me and cause me to fling flat on the ground from crashing into him. My head pounds as a headache ripples through my skull, looking up at this new man he looks like the old one in different clothes. A teleporter? Someone's footsteps lead me to turn around to Dominic and I feel like I'm seeing double. Kidnapping twins? The one who sent me flying begins to chuckle. He looks at his twin, "Isn't she a fiesty little thing we got here?" He bends down and holds out his hand, "The names Alec. What's a pretty little missy like you doing running around like that? You could get hurt you know." I couldn't stop looking at his hair; the way it flowed, the way the brown highlights sparkled in the sea of black, and his eyes twinkled with specks of gold among the blue. Not a twin at all. He looks like an even more muscular, chisled out version of Dominic. Tattoos line his arms, around his neck, and dissappears beneath his shirt. "Alec, quit playing around with her she's gonna start drooling soon," Dominic chuckles out. Alec's hand is still an option. He looks at it and back at me. I couldn't resist grabbing it. Putting my hand in his, he helps me up to my feet. "Gotta be careful there Princess, okay?" All I can do is nod. They take me into this room that has a chandelier, candles are lit, and magnolias are decorated everwhere. How'd they know its my favorite? "Suprise!" says Dominic pulling out a chair for me to sit in. "We really hope you like the decorations darlin," Alec comments. Sitting down I feel overwhelmed. A lot has just happened. He leaves and its just me, Dominic, and silence. I really don't want to talk to him. He seems way scarier than the other guy even though they're about the same height and width. He gives me a smile and puts his hand on top of mine, "I know you're nervohse right now, but me and my brother will explain everything in a bit," he says. His brother? And what are they explaining? I'm starting to hope I am royalty, at least that means they're not planning to kill me. Plus, being royalty would be so much better than escaping just to go back the the orphanage, or even worse the streets. They could have punished me for trying to run away but they didn't, yet. Kidnappers would punish someone for that right? Alec, returnd back with lasagne and garlic knots. My mouth waters and stomach growl like I've never seen food before. "Someone's hungry," Alec notices. He piles up a massive amount of lasgane with garlic knots. At the orphanage they would never allow one person to have this amount of food. There wouldn't be enough for everyone else. I dig in amd take a bite. It taste even better than it looks and the chesses does a dance in my mouth. Dominic and Alec exchange suspicious looks from across the table, so maybe it's about me but I don't mind. Food hasn't tasted this good ever.

My stomach aches while I rub it with my hands. Food babies really are a thing. After the two brothers get done looking at each other for what seems like forever , they turn their attention to me. Alec begins, "As you know me and Dominic have some explaining to do," the brothers share a glance and Alec sighs,

~~~~~2 hours later~~~~

They want me to be their little girl? All the lasagne comes rushing back to me and I puke on the dining room floor.
