Chapter One
Anneliese buried her nose further into the fur lining the collar of her coat. I wish I'd brought out my scarf, she thought to herself, suffering the consequences of her disobedience. She'd escaped through the window to avoid her schooling and chores. As the only child of the Federal Chancellor of Austria, a distinctive amount of discipline and knowledge was expected from her. It was certainly higher than anyone else in her age group was. Tired of the constant ordering, she decided to go out and enjoy the countryside. She was only twelve after all! She needed to be able to play and have fun and basically act her age. But no. It's 'diplomats don't speak like that, they don't walk like that. Don't you want to be like your father?'
"No I don't!" She yelled to the sky above her head, as if that would change anything. "I don't." She whispered now, to the grass. "I don't want to be like him. I don't want to always be away from mother. I don't want to have responsibilities. I…I just always want to stay a child and play with Jean, Sophia and everyone else. W-why can't that be my life? Why?" By the time she had finished her little outburst, she was lying down in the grass, tears spilling over cheeks. She was mad at the unfairness of her life. She didn't ask to be the daughter of a powerful government figure, but she had to live up to the life it entailed. It did have its rewards, like getting anything she wanted, but she would much rather have a normal family than expensive trinkets.
"Hey there cutie." Anneliese snapped her neck up, eyes locking onto the unknown dark figure next to a tree.
"Who…who are you?" She doesn't know every single person working for her father, but she was fairly certain not one soul had a dark complexion like him. She could be wrong, but it was better to be cautious. "What are you doing here?"
"I was just passing through when I saw that you were out here alone." With every word, he inched forward, just a little bit so she didn't notice it and by the time he had finished speaking, he was a little over than a meter away from her.
Alarms went off in her head. Something was telling her not to confirm the fact that she was alone. However, she also needed to get the hell out of the situation. It was a good thing she had been training most of her life in dealing with complicated situations.
She plastered a smile on her face, as if she'd found his statement amusing. "I'm not alone. My guardian just went to get my jacket; he'll be back in a few. And there are guards watching from the widows." The first one was a lie, but not the second. Gunmen stood in certain areas of the estate watching its four corners, making sure everything was in its right place. Unfortunately, this wasn't the first time that she had escaped the watch of one of her personal guards. That's why no one had come after her yet. But they should've seen him by now. Its broad daylight.
As if her thoughts had conjured them, a small group of guards came walking out the nearby garden. They must've radioed in.
"See? I'm okay. You can leave now." If he really was watching out for her, then she didn't want him to get in trouble just for being kind.
His smile widened even more, but it seemed more like a baring of teeth than pleasurable thoughts. "Yes I suppose I can. But not without you." Before Anneliese's mind could register what his words meant, a dark cloth blocked her vision and swallowed her whole. She could feel herself being moved somewhere else. Scared beyond thought, she screamed. Her shrill voice echoed in her ears until it was all she could hear. Then they got violent. A large hand slapped her across the face, effectively silencing her voice. It came down again this time on her side. It left a stinging mark, reminding her that she was not with nice people.
"God damn we had to get the loud brat didn't we? Shut the fuck up down there!"
"Lukas! Don't attract any more attention than we need. It already looks suspicious enough carrying a moving bag around everywhere. Just get it to the truck and keep quiet."
Anneliese recognized the second voice as the one that she'd been talking to earlier. But she didn't know the first one. How many people are there?
Paralyzing fear set in. The only thing on her mind earlier had been to get away from them, but she realized now that it was impossible. These monsters were going to kidnap her and no one could save her now.
Please. Help me. I promise I won't ever disobey again. Please.
