Midnight Mansion (Reborn)

Chapter 7 - Lunch Time Incident

Flora's POV

I was then sitting at the dining table with my hands on my lap, being a nice lady for Raven. Raven was such a mysterious name, to be honest. I looked over to Polly, who was next to me. She had a faded bite mark on the side of her neck, which made me frown a little at her until she turned her head to look at me as well. "I'm fine, Flora. She is very gentle with me." she told me before I started to look down at my lap with my eyes slightly widened. Why...

I was cut off from my thoughts when a bowl of chicken soup and a plate full of lightly toasted bread was placed on the table in front of us. That's it? 

"Thank you, Patricia." Polly thanked her friend, "You're welcome. Enjoy you two." she told us before I picked up a rose gold spoon and started to feed myself, ignoring how hot the soup was which was burning my throat. I just didn't care. This was just so creepy. I was slowly getting back to my normal self so that was great news. 

"You do know that you have to blow on the soup to cool it down first?" Polly asked me, after my spoonful, I replied to her. "You need to get out of here. Return to your job as a beautiful model. Earn some fucking money." 

Then with that, I stood up from the chair with my soup and walked away from Polly because she was getting on my nerves just a tad. Just about I was going towards the stairs, Raven got in front of me. "Go back and apologise." she then ordered me which made me laugh at her. She was so funny!

"No. You can't control me. I am not a puppet!" I told her before she hissed at me, exposing her long fangs. Were they meant to scare me? 

"You are mine." she then said before I shook my head at her as a no. "Flora, you must understand that I am happy here. With you and our Queen. She changed my life...-" Polly decided to join in before I cut her off.

"Polly, I don't! I don't get it! Why are you happy here?! She took you away from reality! Come the fuck on, girl! Snap out of it!" I yelled at her with a small voice crack. I watched her walk towards me before she grabbed the bowl from me. "Please. Snap out of it." I whispered to her, my eyes becoming blurred from a few tears threatening to drop down my face. "I am happy here, Flora. Okay?" she asked me before I watched her return to the dining room. 

I took a small deep breath, wiping some tears away from my eyes as I turned around to face Raven, who had dark red eyes. I raised up my hands in surrender, getting ready for my punishment. "Follow me." she ordered me before she walked up the stairs. I followed her with my heart nearly beating out of my chest as I was terrified. 

A minute later, I was in the bedroom with Raven. "Tilt your head to the side." 

I tilted my head to the side, closing my eyes before I felt her cold hand brush my hair lightly, then feeling her fangs go into me. And it was painful. 

I wanted to scream, I couldn't. It was like hell. My body then became floppy as I passed out a few seconds later. I deserved it. I shouldn't have yelled at my best friend and I shouldn't have argued with Raven. My Queen...
