chapter 4.
***Lucy***
How Nicholas could tell these things I didnt know and right now I couldnt be bothered to ask him; It was crazy that my best friend was a vampire princess...well thats what the Royal Courts believed; to me she was still Solange Drake, the girl I knew through my family. Its kinda a long story how I met the Drakes, Them being home schooled for years ment they didnt have much contact with many humans; in fact I think im about the only Human (apart from their head of scuretiy Taylor) who had much contact and trust with the Drakes. All I remeber from my past life with my parents was spending as much time at the Drakes as I could; I remeber being brought here late one night by the police, wrapped in a thin blanket, blood staining my face...
The Drake house 2002.
I stumbled up the cold gravel leading to the huge oak doors of the Drake house, I had been here millions of times before but this time was different; the man leading me by the arm had told me I couldnt see my parents again...but why not? He knocked on the door harshly, within a few minutes Solanges mum; Helena Drake pulled open the door. "Oh good evening officer, how may I help you?" She asked in a sweet voice, the officer shuffled slightly before saying "Sorry for the late call, but the Vilo family have been killed." I saw Helena Drake's eyes widen slightly. "and, Lucky survived?" Helena mutted, glancing at me; yes my real name is Lucky. "Yes she did, only luckily, she has no other family living in the UK " He said. Helena Nodded once "Very well" She said kindly. "Come inside Lucky you look freezed" The officer said goodnight before leaving; Helena hurried me inside and sat me down on a plump sofa.
"Now Lucky-" "...? Can you call me Lucy please?" Helena nodded slightly. "Lucy...how much did your parents tell you about us?" She asked. I paused taking in her beautiful features "You're all vampires" I said, gazing up at her. She nodded. "Lucy are you scared?" I shuck my head. "You should be"
***the drake house 2011***
I woke with a start. Sunlight was pouring through the lace curtains covering the window; I glanced to my left seeing Nicholas fast asleep, he looked like he was made of stone. I sighed; would he notice if I snuggled into him just abit? I took my chances anyway and snuggled into his chest, feeling his arms wrap me closer around him. Even if he could kill me it felt like the safest place to be right now. I heard a loud thumb from the floor above, possibly Quinn and Hunter...I didnt want to know what kind of things they was doing. "Solange!" Came a thick, roar. I jumped; well as i best I could, struggling in Nicholas tight grip. I knew what was happening, she was fading away into her deep slumber...It must be horrible for Helena and Liam watch all their children fade away into sleep not knowing if they will come out alive.
The door pushed open gently; I glanced up at Max "Is..." I gulped "She's gone" He whispered before closing the door
