CASIE
I stayed in the room my hand tightly holding to a ray of hope that Nora was going to return back alive and unharmed though my intuition was telling me otherwise.
Years passed I could tell bur couldn't tell how many . For these years there was no sigh of Nora . I had made friends with Tasha and Vivian.
Tasha and Vivian were different from the other bloodmates we were locked with . They had this strength to endure everything that comes in their way. All their relied on was a way to hold on and keep on surviving.
Tasha looked weak and simple from the outside but fearce when you looked deeper into her burning eyes which reflected fire. She had long ginger hair which she had twisted. She was tall with a pretty round face ..
Vivian had the same height as Tasha but she was so quite and unfathomable. She looked so indifferent from everyone. These two girls were simply not from my village but somewhere else. She had strange strength that she would try to conceal from others .
When I started noticing her presence was when we accidentally met at night when everyone was deeply asleep. I saw her lifting a gigantic rock which was usually placed on the door of the dungeon we stayed in . It looked like she was returning from .
We couldn't avoid our sudden interaction.
I don't know why but our Master's had stopped visiting us . They had stopped taking blood from us for many years . Only people hiding behind black veils would visit to feed us .
One day we were dining to where my bed was with Tasha and Vivian when we started talking.
Tasha : do you have any idea why they stopped taking blood from us ( she questioned eyeing both Vivian and Casey)
Me : clearly they are feeding us so that they will feast on healthy meat ( she replied nonchalantly)
Vivian: I doubt so , I think it's because they are looking for an antidote to heal the crown prince ...he has been ill from an unfathomable disease ,
_she whispered to the two girls making sure some of the bloodmates couldn't get what they were saying, Tasha's eyes popped out in wonder_
Tasha: wait ? What !
_she said in exclamation_
Me : shush!
Vivian nodded ,
Tasha: how do you know all that ...we have been locked here for so long ?
_she questioned clearly Surprised-
I exchanged looks with Vivian . I have seen her sneaking out many times but she never told me what she was always upto. When Tasha noticed no one was giving her a respond she brushed it off .
Tasha : honestly I can't wait to get the hell out of here ...
Me : same here ...Once I get out here I want to look for my sister....that's if she still alive
_she said an air of melancholy filling her_
Vivian get hold of my hand in a comforting way
Vivian: don't worry we will make it out one day....
Tasha : I saw a vision yesterday..
she said with a sudden serious tone_
We stared at her . It was the first time she had said something like that. She could see vision that so strange to me
Vivian : what did you see ?( she questioned with an eager tone)
Tasha : I saw a girl hiding her face with a blue veil walking in here ...she looked like a warrior holding a sword in her hand . This ain't the first time I've seen her ...( she said thoughtfully) it looked like she was going to be our way out of here )
I laughed out loud drawing attention of other bloodmates who were quietly snuggling together.
Me : you messed up Tasha ...
Tasha : even I can see that but my visions never deceives me
_she said almost confused by everything_
Vivian: yah but this time they are misleading us ...this is your conscious brain which hopes for such ,
Me : we all know no one can walk here or out of here alive ,
Tasha : sure ...I think I need some rest...( she said with a sad tone )
We all abruptly stopped everything we were doing when we saw that gigantic stone by the door moving on it's own.
We all stood up in two rows our heads bowed down .
As I was curious to see who it was I had my head up...I recognized that man who I had met long time back when I was scrubbing the floor in the main corridor. Who had cold blood red eyes.
He caught me glaring at him I quickly dropped my gaze .
Him : some of you have long forgotten our rules ....no one should dare to look into our eyes....
_he said slowly heading to where Casie was standing already sodden with sweat_
I don't know what exactly happened but it seemed like there was a force which sent me down on my knees in front of everyone .
Him: you have the audacity to gaze at me and never die right??
_he asked in his usual acidic tone making her feel as if she was in an ice cellar_
Me : I dare not my Lord ,
Him: but you just dared to
_he replied squatting in front of her, his long cold fingers lifted her chin up forcing her to look into his eyes , she tightly shut her eyes_
Him : open your eyes now
_he whispered_
I opened them to meet to blood red eyes. I couldn't clearly look at his face as he had some hair which ran across his left eye.
He was looking at me as if he was searching something.
Him : follow me to my room,
_he ordered getting back on his feet , Casie followed him out of the dungeon to his chamber_
When I walked into his chamber it had a dark vibe with it
He walked into the bathroom leaving me standing still wondering what my fate had in stock for me .
About an hour later the bathroom door opened...he came out with a towel wrapped around his waist. He walked past me as if I was just a shadow. He was drying his long white hair . I immediately lowered down my head as it was my first time seeing a man shirtless. When he had his back facing me I found myself glaring behind him.
I looked at him in silent. He had an unimaginable strong physique ,narrow hips ...a chiseled chest .. strong biceps. Why do these demons looks so tasty !!
She shouted inside her as she tried to shift her focus on him .
Him: you will address me as Manish ,
Me : yes my Lord ,
The next he was close to me . I could feel a cold chill emanating inside him. I closed my eyes as he inhaled my neck.
Manish: go and freshen up I don't like dirty sluts ,,
_he said coldly walking away as if he was disgusted by her_
I could feel myself fuming but I wasn't in the right place or position to react to all this.
I quietly carried myself into the bathroom. I noticed there was a hot spring in the room. There was some rose petals in the water.
What does this evil thing want to do with me ?? As far as I know I'm only allowed to feed my master not anyone else...
I stood still looking into the water.
Voice: I'm running out of patience ( a cold baritone voice said in her head )
I dropped the gown to my feet as I slowly walked into the hotspring. It has been a while since I've taken a normal bath .
I cleaned myself when I was done I noticed a clean gown which was neatly placed as a replacement to my old dress . I wore it without any hesitation.
I walked out to the room Master Manish was. I almost screamed to see his fangs protruding out of his mouth. Red blood veins illuminating on his skin .
His face had turned ashen. He looked like a monster which had just gone berserk
Suddenly I was grabber by the neck pulled to the walls .
