I laid on the couch in my room, my shoes off and my hair down reading while it was raining outside. Florence busted in suddenly "Florence it really unlike you to do THIS!" I scream as Damon tackled Florence on top of me. "Jeez Damon did you have to get Dalila in this as well?" Alastair came running in with Baldrick almost cracking down laughing. "He was the one that came in here" "you didn't say Dalila's room was off limits" "I thought that it was obvious that her room was off limits, guess not" "can you get off me now?" "yeah yeah" Damon helps me up then I straighten up my dress, "what in the right mind had you guys think chasing Florence in my room was a good Idea?" I look at them as I cross my arms raising an eye brow. "We were playing chase Dalila" I look down at Florence looking completely innocent. I sigh and shake my head "how about a game that doesn't involve running in the house and dive booming me?" I sat back on the couch and grabbed my book looking for the page I was on "what do you suggest?" "something quite so I can read" "how about you join us Dalila?" I sigh and set my book down "I can't get a day to myself can I?" I look up at them "no not in this house," I sigh and put my book down on my vanity "I would like at lest a few hours to myself while here" "maybe some other day." "So we play differently here" "I've noticed" I look at Damon standing in front of his fathers desk. "Ok then, the rules, You can hide in rooms but not in bed rooms, no power use due to the fact that Dalila doesn't have any, the hiders have one minute to hide if found they must come back here, the seeker has four minutes to find everyone if the time runs out the seeker win, now Baldrick would you do the honors of being the seeker first?" "not a problem."
"Ok so far, Baldrick won three, Alastair won six, Florence won nine, I won five and Dalila won.. ten" "Dalila is better than all of us and hid in places I never thought we had" I smile as Baldrick nudge me. "So one more round" "even if there is one more round, Dalila is already winning" "um not really, I only won at hiding part, not the finding parts" "how come your so good at hiding?" I look at Alastair "um well, when I was a kid I had to sneak out and hide in the stables to see my friend, one day we got caught trying to prank the farmer and from then on if I ever missed behaved they would punish the stable boy" "that's kinda crule to put that pressure on a kid" "I mean my father didn't want to do it, but he had no choice he always had to agree what his counsel said so from then on I didn't do anything bad I just did what I was told" "thats really crule" I shrug and look at the ground "any way, lets start Damon your turn to find us" "oh yes."
I run around the mansion looking around for a hidding place, I hear Damon down the hall and run down the hall, I see a room and run into it closing the door quitely. I let out a breath and looked around the room, I trace my hand over the dusty furniture leaving prints. I look around and pull a few books out dusting them off, I pull a book out and when I opend it another book fell out, I put the other book down and I picked up the other book. I look at the balck cover then opend it up and saw my fathers name, I gasp and lean against the wall reading through it.
'I am so happy that we are here to live in a house of vampires, my wife is pregnant and I just hope that my daughter will understand what I have done, for the sake of her and my kingdom. My father may not understand but for the sake of my family I am doing this.'
I flip threw a few pages and start reading again.
'Sir, Hemlock likes my idea of vampires and demons living in peace with humans, the only problem is my father, he doesn't believe we can live in peace. Everything is going as plan, and his boys are loving Dalila even if she is a baby.'
I lean against the wall feeling my heart racing. "Mom never told me that I was here before..." I look at the book then skip a few pages seeing the hand writing get worse.
'Something has happened and we need to leave, I'm not sure how long we'll be gone but I can't put my wife and daughter in danger. Alistair's wife was murdered and is angry, he told us to leave out of anger. My father told me that he knew this would go wrong, but I feel like he's hiding something.'
The door opened and I put the journal behind me turning around seeing Florance. "I found her guys!" "never knew that you would be hiding in this room" "I was in a rush, sorry" "dad hasn't been in this room in years" "really?" "yes really." I look up seeing sir Hemlock. I smile and see myself being walked to his office. I hold my father's journal in my lap "last time I checked I locked that room" "well it wasn't sir" "mhm, well I will need to take that journal from you your highness" "why is that?" I look at him and cross my arms "it doesn't belong to you, that's why" "last time I checked my father's things belong to my mother and I, so technically it does belong to me!" "if your father wanted you to have it he would have given it to your mother!, and there are things in there that you wouldn't understand" "so what if I don't understand!, dose my mother even know about this!" "she doesn't need to know" "she deserves to know!, unlike the rest of my kingdom she hasn't gotten over him! not to mention that this journal might help with the future of all of us living in peace!" "the journal Princess!" I growl and slam the book in his desk and walked to my room "I hope you're happy!"
