BACK HERE! (I hear him scream with his thoughts)
I run into the cabin and shut the door quietly. I sigh with my back against the door. The bed is empty. I start to silently panic. Alarms start to ring off in my head because of my nerves going haywire. I run into Anthony’s room. I walk in on him having sex with someone else. The girl turns to face me and He turns slowly too. I just stare at him in pain and disbelief.
“Anthony… wh-what is this?” He laughs as He fucks her again
“does she mean anything to you?” the girl asks
“no sweetheart, of course not” on the last part He looks at me
“glad I didn’t fuck you… I am leaving… I have someone waiting anyway…” I say
“who?” He seems furious
“none of your business” I bark
“Tell me” He appears in front of me
“Shadow…” He seems broken
“My brother… why?” He asks
“Goodbye” I kiss him on the cheek
I turn on my heel and walk out of the room. I slam his bedroom door behind me. I risked everything just to be with him. I was about to cheat but it seems he beat me to it. I run out of the cabin and into the forbidden forest. They say it is where death is a comfort and where living is a curse. It seems we know each other perfectly huh forest? I snicker to myself. I lay my head against the foot of a tree bark and then I feel it. The ground shakes and I garb onto it for dear life. A bed erupts from the ground where I just rested a minute ago. I lay on it and draw comfort from the forest and its hospitality. It seems we are both misunderstood. Thank you
Slumber dreams though it seems, cold just like December. Hear their screams and you seem shaken to remember.
I feel his hands on me. I feel his kisses burn on my skin. I burn for him. I burn for his comfort, for his embrace. I feel him near me right this instant. I feel his eyes stare at me. I feel them read me like an open book. He can give me what I need and he can get what he wants in the same breath. He is the reason I want to feel strong and powerful. He is my one true desire that I never knew existed until now. His name is-. His name… His name…is…his name is….
Chapter 7

I awake to the sound of my name being called. I stand up and search for the source of it. I blend in with the trees to investigate. I see Anthony. I see him call my name. I hear the distress and regret in every tone. His voice is saying my name but his soul is crying out to me. I am about to step forward until a hand grabs my wrist. I tightens and I drop to my knees. I hear the vines snap below me and I see Anthony look in my direction. He locks gazes with me. I look away from him and up to the controller of the hand that forces me to my knees. I look into the face of Shadow. His evil smile turns to one of pity. I spit at him and he dodges it like nothing. In a swift movement, he lets go of my wrist and holds my hand. He helps me up slowly and I rise without looking at him. He whispers in my ear and his tongue touches my ear. Teasing at it.
“Go to him…” I nod and pull away from him but his grip doesn’t ease up
“Shad-”He bites my neck and drinks a little; not too much
“Now kiss me my lover” He kisses the spot he just bit making me shiver visibly
I push him against a tree bark and place my hands on his chest. His hands grip my waist tight now. So I wont run away I presume. I lean forward and kiss him slowly. Somehow, it burns. It burns my whole body. I think about taking my shirt off but it soon is replaced with a need to dose the fire. I think of cool water in my head. My lips begin to freeze and they start to melt once he kisses me harder. I start to press my body against his and his fangs extend slightly. I disengage and he smiles at me approvingly. He kisses me softly before disappearing into the darkness of the tree line. Like a shadow.
I walk past Anthony and I feel him staring holes into my back. I keep walking until I reach the cabin. As I enter the cabin I see the figure of a man briefly before I fall to the floor. The gravity intensified as soon as we made eye contact. I try and pull myself up when Anthony walks in. He smiles in my direction as he kneels before the stranger. I start to cry and I feel a strange sensation rise within me.
Don’t worry Madeline. I am here with you. I always was.
I feel Anthony haul me over his shoulder. I hear him open my closet and I feel the pull of the portal. I lift my head and see out of the doorway. I see Shade step out of the tree line and stare at me in disbelief. I smile. He mouths the words: I wont let them get away with this. He sneers and steps back into the darkness. Anthony, the stranger, and I go through the portal. As we port through, Anthony now carries me in his arm with my head and lags draped over his arms. He stares at me shocked to see my fangs extend. He is about to drop me but the stranger shakes his head.
“Do not drop her!” The stranger hisses
“I got you the first time Brother!” I shiver in his arms and he holds me closer to him
“Do you feel for this creature?” His Brother asks him
“Not anymore.” He says as he stares deep into my eyes
“Shade…” I whisper and they stare at me
They use vampire speed and hurry through the portal. I feel the feeling come back within my body. Anthony lays me on the ground, unaware of it. His Brother kneels and stares me in the eye. He smiles. A wonderful smile it was to look at too. Not one of evil or of good. Just his personality. He helps me stand up and he supports me as I fall forward.
“Madeline, Are you able to speak?” He asks softly
“Yes, I have been for a while.” I say audibly
“Be wise about this and answer my questions” He orders
“You are of not high enough rank to order me around.” I push him away and fall to my knees
“Actually I am. I am heir to the Picasso Throne.” He reveals
“Same here. I am an heir too.” I Smile
“To what family?” He looks into my eyes
“I am ok to keep my vampire family a secret from you” I spit at him
“Well… it seems you have a numerous amount of family as I am told.” He looks at Anthony
“He doesn’t know anything” I laugh harder
“You’re a hybrid. I know a few things about you.” He smacks me
“Not as much as the Shade does.” I say with a blank face and tone
“About that…” I hear doors open
Chapter 8

I hear the grunt of a familiar person. I don’t have to look to see Shadow there. I keep my thoughts on Anthony’s brother. He smiles but I do not react quick enough. I feel a dagger pierce my chest where my heart is. I feel blood escape the side of my mouth. I feel Anthony’s brother pull me closer to him. I feel the sting of the blade and the burn of Shadow’s eyes on my back.
“My love, I am sorry.” Shadow apologizes
“For what exactly?” I crawl towards him
“I have told them everything to save my own skin. I feel that it is my duty to you to tell you the truth even though you’re dying. I know you don’t love me so I decided to come clean.” He says with a blank tone
“How can you say that I do not love you?” I ask out of all of the questions roaming through my mind
“You only wanted to get back to Anthony” I flinch and turn my head away from them all
“Everything dear?” I ask softly
“What happened? Why do you not want me to say his name? Did he wound you that bad? Did he cheat? Did he lie? What has happened to you?” I lay my head in his lap
“All of the above.” I pull the dagger out and cry
“Are you going to die?” He pulls me closer to him
“Say you love me and then drain me” I whisper
“I will do no such thing.” He growls at my idea
“For me?” I beg
“I said-” I cough up blood
He pulls me closer to him and his fangs grow out all of the way. I gasp and just stretch my neck out more. He kisses me lightly before chomping on my neck. I feel my blood draining from my body as he gulps it down. I feel it rush through my veins to replace the lost blood but it is not enough. He drains me in a matter of minutes. He watches my eyes close and I go within myself.
Inside this dark place I call Madeline. Who is Madeline? What is Madeline? Just another name I go by these days. Another human form I have corrupted. I fall down into my dark abyss of secrets. Time to show one of my wildcards. I feel my bone structure change. I feel the shedding of my new skin. I feel the veil grow from my molecules. I feel the burn of life and the oxygen rush into me. I have taken one of my many true forms: Princess Dragonmire.
I awake as my eyes flutter open. I watch as Shadow’s face becomes a blank once more. With every new transformation, the information of the previous life is lost with its death. Almost everyone is new to me. Everyone except Anthony, Shadow, and Anthony’s Brother. The veil covers my face as I sit upon a chair provided for me. I whistle and royal guards are by my side in not time at all.
“How is that possible? Who are you to be so royal? Why don’t your guards have an CREST?” Anthony becomes frustrated
“I am of royal blood that does not require a crest like yours. Your crest is tainted with the blood of the innocent. Ours only helps win peace and not wars. I am my own crest. I represent my family. Even our family name is a secret. So are our heirs and ancestors. We are but a family that has ruled all other families for the sake of peace and prosperity. It seems that Shadow has not told you EVERYTHING about me. I am a Princess. Heir to the throne. That is how this is possible.” I say this directly to him
“I see the tattoo on your ankle. It is of a dragon. I have not seen a family crest of a dragon. Only in fairy tail books told to young children. It said that if any royal blood line contained a dragon tattoo, they were direct descendants of the Royal Family.” He reveals his discovery
“Even in the books it is forbidden to talk of our family. We are the most silent of the families but the most powerful. Isn’t it ironic?” I
