( Harlequin )

I don't know but since we fought I now have this respect of The Queen. Today I don't know what it was. Was an challenging testing my strength skills? Or we were just hanging out and playing around. I thought about as we walked back to the big beautiful castle. "Do you want to join me for dinner?" Queen Diane question opening the big door. "No thank you I was thinking to eat with Aria" I told her Diane stops instantly and looked at me. "Oh don't worry Aria is gonna join us" she smiled a little but I can see through it she is planning on something.

We keep walking as we reach at the table where Aria and another servant there holding food. "Good evening My Queen" the servants said all in the same time. I pulled the chair for Diane as she gracefully sit down. "Come sit" I nobbed and sit down I saw a figure moving the corner of my eye. I turn and see Aria walking towards to us. She sit in front of me not making eye contact with no body.

"Now everyone is here, let's eat" the servants that was holding the food. Walked towards to us placing the food tray in front of us. I didn't realize how hungry I was as I reach in and try to grab one of the chicken leg but someone kicked my leg.

I looked up and see Aria shaking her head at me. Soon I realize that The King Or The Queen has to eat first before you eat. I whisper to her a thank you and waited for Queen Diane to eat. Diane grabbed some fruits, chicken,salad, and smash potato. Is she gonna eat all of that? As soon The Queen took a bite Aria reach in and grabbed the breads.

I grabbed fruits and meats. As I began to eat I realize that The Queen finish all her food wow she most be so hungry I thought as I stare at her grabbing more food. "You most be really hungry your majesty" I joked as I watch her grab some bread. The Queen said nothing as she keep eating.

Thinking she's not a talking person when it comes to food. "Hey Aria did you know there's a whole forest" Aria looked at me but avoided eye contact. "Yes I know I been here for Two years" two years? "How did you find out in the first place" I question trying to make a conversation.

"The Queen showed it to me" I took a bite of my chicken leg. "Why? I mean she probably have her reasons." Aria keep silent okay that failed I shrugged it off knowing no one wants to talk.

Finally I finished my food damn that was good. I looked up seeing Aria is also finish but The Queen keeps eating. How she eats like that and still managed to have a body like that? I looked around the table and realized there's no cup of blood just water. Shit she most be thirsty that's why she's eating a lot "Aria I think we should go" I warn her Aria looked at me then shook her head. "You can't stand before The Queen does, is disrespectful and rude." Aria whisper back at me looking at the ground.

"Aria look around there's no blood sooner or later she will drink us dry" I told her looking back at The Queen as she nearly finished with all the food. Aria hesitate before nobbing her head as agreement. We slowly stand up before hearing some gasp from the servant. I looked at the servant seeing them covering there mouth or whispering to each other.

Aria and i slowly walked backwards before my clumsy self dropped a knife at the ground hearing a loud metal fall. I looked at the knife shooting it hateful graces. Then looked back up hoping that The Queen is still feasting on the food. But when I see the chair empty my heart stops and I started to panic.

I looked at Aria as the same time she looked at me freaking out. Every thing is so quiet now the servants that was gossiping about us is now replace with silent. I turn around but was soon was grabbed by my neck and lifted in the air. I looked at the person and all I see is red eyes pierced through mines. I was smashed to the tables breaking it in half. It all happed so fast that I couldn't reacted to it.

I try to take some air but the hand on my neck tightened forbid me from breathing. I hear some mumbles but I couldn't quite hear it correctly. Then all of a sudden the hand that was on my neck left letting me breathing once again.

I took deep breaths trying to filled all the airs in my lungs as fast as possible. I open my eyes and try to focus to see better but it's all blurry. I looked up and saw Queen Diane grabbing Aria jaw making her title her head. I watch her as she sinked her teeth on her neck drinking her blood. I try to get up but the lost of air is making me feel dizzy and numb

( Diane)

I feel all my body relax instant as I drink Aria. I stay there feeling her warm blood go through my body until I feel her go weak that's when I stopped and pulled away. "I am sorry" I apologize to her as I watch her in pain. "It's okay you need to drink any way" I looked down at her neck seeing the red liquid flooring down to her collarbone.

I lean in and licked it all away sensing her tense a little. Slowing pulled away and stare at her eyes seeing something but I can't put my finger on it. We stare at each other eyes for like a minute until I heard a thud. I looked behind me and see Harlequins there laying on the ground bleeding from his head.

"I lost control didn't i?" Aria nobbed her head "yeah but it's not your fault" Aria walked towards to Harlequin she kneel down to check if there's any more injuries. "Well he just bleeding from his head but we still have to check if he has any skull damage." Aria grabbed some napkin and press it on his wounded head apply some pressure to it.

"He's a werewolf he can heal fast" I told her kneeling next to her. "Yeah but you don't know it's really serious he could have brain Hemorrhage" I stare at her for a moment. "I forgot that you were a nurse" "was a nurse before I was trap here" Aria replay with such harsh words. "If you want I can put you a nurse not a servant" Aria looked at me shook then give me the most beautiful smile ever.

"I would love that" I stand up and lead to a servant to us. "It's settled, by tomorrow you will be a nurse."
