Oof. I feel a bit dizzy. Wait. Where the heck am I? Why am I on a red silk bedsheet? And what in the world am I wearing? I look down the crop I am wearing. It's a black and barely covers my stomach. I am wearing the black yoga pants as well. What happened to my original clothes? 

I look around for some sort of clue as to where I was kidnapped to? The door opened abruptly and I jumped a bit. In came the same masked man who kidnapped me. He's wearing the same black cloak, but it has a ripped piece on it. He didn't even notice. Whatever. His clothes, his problem.

"Did you hear what I said previously by any chance?" He asks with a deep voice. "Um..all I heard you say was wow...but wait a minute. Did you kidnap me by any chance?" I ask, repeating his words. He laughs a bit. "Call it whatever you want, but I assure you, we will not harm you. At least not at this point." Okay...that totally sounded reassuring. 

I am sitting on the bed currently, and he moves to sit in a chair near and just...stares at me? What is wrong with this guy? Aakil must be looking for me at this point. I wish he could take me away from here; I am getting creepy vibes from this guy. "Excuse me, let me rephrase this. WHY did you kidnap me?" He smiles his creepy smile again. 

"Well, you are perfect for our king." He says casually. "King?! As in Aakil, the king of nature and stuff?" I ask a bit shocked. His face twists into disgust. "No, not that imbecile. The true king. The king of all that is dark, particularly souls." He says this as though he merely talking about the weather. 

"Souls?? As in ghosts and stuff? Dead stuff!?!" I exclaim. He chuckles a bit and nods. You may be thinking why I believe that he is telling the truth. But, my mate is basically monster. He legit has tentacles. Once you see that, there is no telling what else could be out there. 

"Wait a second. Before the souls stuff, you said something about me being perfect for someone. He is the one the rules these things?" I ask, genuinely curious. "Yes. He believes you are the only one fit to be his queen." He says. "I have a mate-uh boyfriend. And plus he's Aakil. And I am already destined to be his queen so could you tell your king that?" The guy's eyes flash in anger. He grabs my wrist and pulls me somewhere. 

Aakil, please help me. I am about me some weird, creepy guy who kidnaps girls to be his queen.

I am taken into a huge room where there is a creepy, black throne with thorns on it. And on it sits the supposed king who kidnapped me.
