Chapter 5

"Rules? What rules?", I spoke in a husky tone, naturally confused.

"First, you are not allowed to call us by our names. You have you call us Master or Sir. No other name is allowed", Seth spoke as he buried his face on my neck, nuzzling.

Light pain was erupting in the neck region where he had bitten me due to his skin being pressed on my neck.

"Secondly, you have to obey whatever we tell you to do, whenever we tell you. The dress that you will wear, the food that you will eat, the place where you will stay or sleep will be decided by us", Adriel spoke as seated himself in front of me, staring into my eyes so deep that it felt like he could see through me.

"Thirdly and last, you are allowed to roam around the castle and even in the garden... but you are not allowed to leave this castle without anybody accompanying you", Leander spoke as he caressed my arm tenderly. "And by anybody we mean, any of us three...".

"And any rule you disobey, calls for the punishment... and...", Leander trailed off the last part. "it depends if you will like it, babygirl... but I think a naughty girl like you would loveeee it", Seth whispered in my ear sending shivers down my spine.

"You will be treated like a princess if you behave like a good girl but if you misbehave... you will be punished. You just have to be our perfect little princess. Is it clear, sweetie?", Adriel spoke as he grabbed my chin making me look at him.

I was still lightheaded and couldn't quite comprehend what he said so I just nodded. all I wanted at that moment was some rest. I was feeling weaker with each passing second. As their saliva effect was reducing in my blood, slowly pain started to spread on my neck, chest and thighs bit by bit.

I moaned as I felt slight pain.

"Is it paining princess?". I moaned in response, nodding. I felt a hand on my forehead caressing my forehead ever so gently. I was feeling good as my eyes started to droop.

Soon I drifted off to deep sleep and everything blacked out from my eyes.

"MOM!! DAD!! NO... How did this happen?", I plopped in front of the dying bodies of my parents at the doorway of my house, tears rolling down my eyes. "Honey... we are sorry... we couldn't protect you", mum said as she groaned in pain trying to sit up straight in my arms.

"No mum, dad you didn't fail in protecting me and don't say these things... we need to rush to the hospital...", I said crying trying to drag them up with me. "That won't be of any use darling. Our time is expiring and no one can save us... darling... please stay safe", dad stuttered as he coughed out blood.

I was at a loss to what to do. I was calling for help but unexpectedly no one was around.

"Honey, don't let them get you..."

"Who?!"

"Them... who?"

"T-the Langm-", my mum and dad couldn't complete their sentence when they fell on my arms, unconscious, cold and...

lifeless.

I let out a high pitched cry as my eyes shot open. I panned my vision of where I was. It was the same cream coloured room where I was earlier. I sighed at the dream. My parents...

I miss them...

I wish they were here with me...

Suddenly I remembered something... and I groped my hands around my neck and winced in pain. I was feeling light pain over my body and also in my thighs. "So that was all true... that wasn't a part of my nightmare...", I muttered, looking down, hopelessly.

"I want to go home... I don't want to stay here... why am I even here? Why it has to be me?... Why me??",I muttered in confusion lying on my bed.

"No. I can't waste any time... I need to figure out a way to escape from here... soon...", I spoke as i kicked the duvets off me getting off the queen sized bed. I looked at myself to see myself in nothing but a thin long oversized white satin shirt which displayed my clevage and thighs.

I looked forward at the mirror at myself. I couldn't help but wonder why was my skin looking so bright and comparatively spotless and glowing. I could also see my hair more voluminous and shinning. "Wierd".

I took slow and careful steps towards the door and I turned the metallic knob of the large rosewood door. It wasn't locked.

"It isn't locked. Does that mean it is a trap? Do they know that I am planning to escape?

...

nah. how wil they know? I am thinking too much. This is my chance. I have to take advantage of this golden opportunity", I sighed as I stepped out of the room. I carefully panned my vision in the hallway to see if anyone was there.

The cream coloured modern hallways were unexpectedly quiet and it rose my suspicions. "Something seems off. But I can care less".

I pressed my feet on the floor while walking to prevent making any noise. My eyes and ears were aware as I carefully walked towards the large stairs. On my way I passed a door looking exactly like mine.

"Damn... this place is really huge... like a maze... wheres the exit?", I stepped down the stairs panning my vision in my surroundings.

When I was down the stairs I looked around to find a exit.

"Are you lost? Need some help in getting out of this place?". A sudden voice from behind caused me to jump on my place in shock and astonishment.

"To be honest you look more good in my shirt than I expected... baby...".

I abruptly turned around to find Adreil Langmore standing at the top of the stairs, staring down at my with a sinister smirk on his face. "What are you doing here?", I asked, stuttering as I gulped.

As he started to walk down the stairs, I started to move backwards from him. "Adreil...".

"Tut tut tut, baby I think you are already craving some punishment..."

"Punishment?! No...?"

"You are already breaking rules... and I can promise you will love the "punishment", babygirl~".
