2 After effects , confusion and runaways
Matthew's POV:-
-------------------------
I woke up in a room that I can't recognise . But the voices that I hear is very familiar to me. That's Sebastian taking to Simon.
Though Sebastian is the son of my adoptive parents but he is every bit a brother to me ,my best friend....Wait! before we talk about Sebastian and my relationship . What on earth is Sebbie doing here ? How did he find me ???
I pretended to sleep so I could hear their conversation.
****
Sebastian :- He doesn't know about it.
Simon:- How is that possible? He has to release his powers and meet her...
Her power will be released only after they unit.
Sebastian:- Well I think it's the other way around.
Simon :- What do you mean?
Sebastian :- It's been 3 days that she has already released her power.
Simon:- That's not possible.
Sebastian :- I felt it.
***
What on earth are they talking about?.... I need to get up.....Fuck! I think I am still stuck in my head...Shit! I shouldn't have taken the snake bite....This nightmare seems to never end. "Get up Matt. Wake up you idiot !" .
I feel Sebastian place a hand on my arm ; "Matthew . Are you awake?" Shit! this might be reality after all. I open my eyes to see Sebbie stairing at me.
"Next time you try something new.....you bloody tell me." he said.
I nod my head. Should I tell him about the conversation with Simon? I don't know.... I don't think I am ready to accept whatever they were talking about.
"Are you good buddy?...You seem a little lost " asked Simon. "I am good." I replied ; " Just a bit of a hangover" . I lied.

Saraphina's POV:-
No way... NOT HAPPENING.....simply not happening. I am only 21! I AM NOT GETTING MARRIED ! No way in HELL I am marrying this son of a gun! He is the worst and is over 10 years older than me. I am screaming in my head. I don't know what is wrong with my parents. Just because I don't want to marry him I am locked in my own room.
I look around my room. I look at the giant glass window covering one side of the room , the space designed celling to the vanity sitting at one corner , my beautiful black round bed , which looks like a giant black hole in the blue sky...this is my room . I love every part of it. My safe haven turned into my prison.
I was waiting for a text from my bestie , who had promised to help me escape . The door to my room opened with a loud bang and my mother walked in looking very angry.
"Why aren't you dressed yet?" ; she asked. Her voice was so cold . " I don't want to dress up ." I replied. She gives me a disappointed look ;" Haven't you father and I did enough for you in the past 15years? Are you so ungrateful that you can't do one thing we as of you ?"
"Mum..." I started but she broke in ;" Don't start young lady . We took you in when you had nothing and treated you like a princess . Is it too much for us to ask you to marry the wonderful young man , just to save your father's business?" . " Mum...I..." ; " Get ready now . I don't want to hear a word out of your mouth ".
I huff and get ready.... no point arguing with my mother. She never listened to me. The pink lacy dress barely went bellow my hip and the neckline was so deep , it practically almost popped my boobs out for everyone to see.... "Mum I am not comfortable in this dress."
"Oh you look great wearing that , Lucas specially sent it for you." she replied.
Lucas Pereira is the business tycoon my parents want me to marry . Well it's a contractual marriage where in I would marry him and in return he would make sure my father's business survived. He had no feelings for me , Hell! he had no feelings for anyone. He practically owns a whore house , he is waist deep in all sorts of illegal activities. There's rumour that he might have killed some people .
I was pulled out of my thought by the knock on the door. "Be at your best behaviour ." my mother whispered before going to open the door.
A well built man with short hair , strikingly handsome features and sea green eyes walked into the room.
"Lucas ! My darling! How have you been ?" my mother said pulling him into her arms. "Very well." he replied , taking his eyes all over my body. Even with cloths on I felt naked and terribly uncomfortable around him.
"If you don't mind Mrs. Knight . I want to spend some time with my would be wife." He said eying me hungrily. "Oh sure!" said my mother as she walked out of the room , closing the door after her.
"So sweetheart why don't you strip for me?" he said leering at my body.
What the Hell! We hardly know each other. I stare at him shocked.
"I am not a very patient man." he add. Getting no reply from me , he took a step towards me , and whispered " Look I want to see what I am buying , so if you don't strip willingly I will rip this piece of fabric off your body ".
I was starting to get scared , I could feel my heart thumping against my chest and I could feel my eyes burn. There's a weird feeling of a cold liquid flowing through me , which is trying to consume me and break free. There was a voice in my head asking me to let go. The moment I felt his hand on my dress that thing took over and I blacked out.
