Forbidden Desires

Chapter 1:
Welcome To Your New Home
His hand collided with my cheek hard. I spat out blood and hissed in pain. He hadn't stopped beating me since I was brought into the room. There was nothing I could do; I was chained up to a damn bed. Some of the other girls in the room were watching, others cringing at the sounds.
"That all you got? You dumb fuck, hit me for real this time," my taunts only fueled him on more. He grabbed my hair; it was already falling out of my usual tight ponytail. His knee collided with my forehead and I heard the sickening crack as my head hit the bed's railing.
"You should learn to keep your mouth shut, bitch," he sneered. Finally, I watched his retreating figure, locking the door behind him. Damnit, I cursed to myself. I closed my eyes, the exhaustion finally settling in. I retired to my bed, my eyes becoming fuzzy. Without my consent, sleep set in and consumed me.
"Get up, you whores," she spat, "it's time to see how much you're worth." I shot her a glare and stayed where I was. I kept my eyes closed; I could feel her nearing my bed. She came to a halt and waited expectantly for me to open my eyes. Slowly, my eyes peeled open to look at the woman before me. She had brown hair just barely passing her shoulders. Her grey eyes were flat and hard. Really, I've no idea why I'm explaining what she looks like; it doesn't matter in the slightest. I raised my eyebrow at her and smirked.
"Can I help you?" my voice held disdain and hate. Her eyes hardened and grabbed for me. This was an obvious move; I've gone through the drill too many times. I quickly rolled to the side, landing in a crouch on the floor, before standing before her. She snarled at me menacingly. Her normal grey eyes flashing a deep crimson red.
"Jenna," his voice said sharply. She straightened and looked towards him. She gave me a quick glare before returning to her duties. The man came towards me, the irritation plain of his face.
"Robert," I nodded at him. This earned me a low growl and a stinging slap.
"You will show respect and call me Master," he hissed forcefully.
"And why the fuck should I show you respect?" He growled again and was about to strike me but was cut short by the stern glare of the short and stubby man at the door. Robert's eyes flashed angrily, but he complied to the man's obvious wish.
"You will not harm anyone in this room, understood?" he commanded. He gave a jerky nod and stalked off. I smirked. "Everyone, get the fuck out there and look presentable," the short man, Bob, yelled. The girls filed out, the chains making them move at an even slower pace.
"Move it, you idiots! You may be humans, but that's no fucking excuse!" I didn't know whom the voice belonged to, but really, I just didn't give a damn.
It was finally my turn to go up; I walked gracefully to the stage and casually leaned on the wall, smirking. It always turned out the same way. No one would ever want me, so I would stay in that hell hole. There were murmurs throughout the room, no doubt talking about how I wasn't submissive. Bob cleared his throat nervously. It wasn't a secret that he wanted me out and away with. I saw the determination in his eyes. He fixed his gaze on the crowd.
"This girl is feisty. She is not submissive in any way. She's a challenge. Don't you see? You could have the pleasure of breaking her. Not just physically, but her spirit as well. You will get to see her fall," the man addressed the crowd confidently. It was a good approach; I'll give him that. I watched as the murmuring became louder and for the first time, I heard someone yell out a number. Soon enough, everyone was yelling prices. The numbers increasing greatly, I watched, almost amazed. Bob was the new director and head. It was the first time anyone ever tried something like that. Although he was my enemy, I'll give him credit, he was smarter than the former directors. He knew what a vampire would want. They wanted control, but to break someone to do as they bid, gave them a challenge. A challenge that none could refuse.
The numbers increased even more, soon enough it was up to fourteen thousand dollars. It was a lot to bid for a human, usually vampires would settle for maybe a thousand or two dollars only. These guys were all vampires, they've lived on for centuries; there's no doubt they would be rich.
I sighed and rolled my eyes. This was getting boring, to say the least. I wrapped the chains around my wrist and then pulled. With little effort, the chains snapped in two. Not one vampire noticed, idiots. I decided it would be best if I got their attention. I started casually swinging the chain in a circular motion. Now, to choose my first target. I sure as hell was not going to be enslaved to a damn greedy and horny vampire. All of their eyes widened in surprise. Soon enough, they started closing in on me. Damn, guess they were going to make this easy on me, I smirked. I hauled the heavy chains in a horizontal arc, pushing the leeches to the side and falling on one another.
Now, I know all of you have heard stories about vampires. We have Dracula, to Twilight, and let me tell you, these vampires sure as hell do not sparkle, nor do they give a damn about holy crosses. The idiots got the vampires portrayed incorrectly. Don't get me wrong, these books were awesome, their facts were just a bit skewed. Well, not a bit, but you get the point.
Vampires, there are powerful ones and weak ones. They aren't all drop dead gorgeous, some of them are, but the majority are all gross pigs. Many vampires are graceful, some, not so much. Yes, there is such a thing as a clumsy and ugly vampire, get the fuck over it. I'm a vampire hunter; I've hunted down billions of vampires in my time and I've lived for a while. Vampire hunters can live forever, as long as they aren't killed. We aren't as weak and slow as humans, though we do not possess the strength and speed some vampires do. I guess, you could say, we were in the middle of the two.
I don't kill every vampire that gets in my way, just the annoying and evil ones. Yep, not all vampires are bad, but a good amount of them are, the majority actually. Vampires who wish to coexist with humans are considered rogue and are traitors; however, the other vampires don't kill them necessarily. They usually would just shun them, ignoring them or sometimes treating poorly. All of these vampires here though, were most probably bad.
They quickly got up and came after me. I threw the chain up in the air, as one vampire was just about to jump on me. The rest of the fight went on like this. Unfortunately, only about one sixth of the vampires were dead.
Five vampires had me pinned to the wall, they were panting slightly. Vampires may be better at endurance and have better stamina, but they do grow tired eventually. I struggled against their iron grip, but I was exhausted and couldn't fight anymore.
"Stop moving, foolish girl," one of the vampires holding my arm and shoulder hissed. I glared at him, and if looks could kill, he'd have been eviscerated. Bob was panting as well, though he didn't do a thing.
"So, uhm, who would love to break this girl," he said, not as confident as before. He sure is stubborn. I smirked, knowing that no one would want to take me this time.
"I will take her." Bob looked up surprised that someone would say something. I looked toward the direction of the voice. My gaze was calculating as I inspected the vampire. Bob looked relieved.
"Oh god, yo-you can just take her. Just take her the fuck away," he said tiredly. The vampire smirked.
"Come," the vampire's voice was commanding and firm, but there was a hint of gentleness. The vampires that were holding me released me hesitantly. I walked over to the vampire and got into the black limo in the back with the vampire. "What is your name," the vampire asked. Startled, I rested my gaze on the form. There was softness in the vampire's voice. There was absolutely no hint of harshness. I stared stupidly. "Your name," the vampire repeated, but again the voice was soft.
"My name is Rose Millard," I said confidently, "you?" I raised my eyebrow at the vampire.
"That's none of your concern, for now." I frowned at the response. I jerked my head to the window, my posture was ramrod straight and it was stiff. My eyes never wavering from the closed window and outside world. My freedom was stripped from me two days ago and I've hated every one hundred and seventy-two thousand, eight hundred seconds of it. The limo came to a halt in front of a huge mansion. This didn't surprise me at all, nearly every vampire had an enormous house; it would prove their rank.
"Welcome to your new home," the vampire said, I could hear the pride in the vampire's voice. I sighed and pushed the door open. Yeah, welcome home, I thought bitterly to myself. I turned to the vampire behind me and arched my eyebrow. The vamp smiled and lead the way to 'my new home'.
I'll admit, in short, the mansion was gorgeous. I think it had everything in it, everything that you would ever desire. I could sense many vampires in this mansion, they were all of lower status; servants would be my guess. There was only one strong aura here and that was the one of the vampire that stood in front of me. Although, this vampire's aura was not too strong either.
"I will have the servants get your room ready. Come with me, you must be starving," the vampire said kindly. I looked up bewildered; this had to be a trick of some sort. This time, I got to really look at the vampire that stood before me. She was shorter than I, her hair was grey, and there were many wrinkles. This was a very old vampire, but seemed oddly kind. She gave a small chuckle. "I assure you, there is nothing to worry about," she said, knowing what I was thinking. I shook my head slightly and let her lead the way. There was a man, he seemed to be around my age, who came out of the kitchen and bowed to the woman slightly. Again, this vampire had a kind aura, leaving me utterly confused. He had wavy brown hair and kind blue eyes.
"How may I help you," he asked. The woman looked thoughtful for a moment, but then looked to me. She wanted me to choose something for us to eat? This is crazy!
"I - I, uhm, ca - can you make a, uhm, burger?" I asked meekly. Okay, usually, I would never act like this. Shy and unsure, I mean, around a vampire. I don't know what it was about this place, but it made me feel small and like I didn't belong. It reminded me of my childhood, but I won't be getting into that. The young man went off to go make our food. I decided, I would like staying here. The woman was genuinely kind; I could tell from her aura. I was so caught up in thinking; I didn't even notice the old vampire silently studying me. I looked to her; she smiled at me a small, gentle smile.
"Do not worry, you will come to like it here. You will be treated as a guest, not a slave. We just have to wait for the master to return home," she said reassuringly. Startled, I looked at her.
"What do you mean, wait for the master? Are you not, master of this house?" I asked tentatively. She shook her head, laughing lightly.
"Oh, no, no. I am the head maid. Our master will return later at night. He is a kind man, don't worry." I looked at her dubiously. I don't know if I wanted the master to be a man. Of course, at first, I was astonished that a woman would be master; it was not often that a woman would be. I guess it was too good to be true.
It was nearly twelve o'clock; I still wasn't able to sleep. I quietly crept down the stairs so I wouldn't wake any of the vampires up; yes, vampires do sleep. I was on my way to the kitchen when I realized two things. One, an exceedingly powerful aura had just hit me, and two, I was lost in the huge mansion. I sighed, great, just great. I turned around abruptly only to be met with a damn wall... That apparently had two arms that made it so I wouldn't fall. I slowly lifted my gaze, only to be met with a pair of strikingly green eyes. This was the powerful aura that had entered. My eyes widened. Shit, shit, shit, shit!
So, how was it ? Did you like it, or hate it ? Review and tell me !
