Chapter 5
I lay in the bed covered up in a maroon blanket. I woke up from gentle kisses in my neck where Edan had bit me. I fluttered my eyes and kissed the side of his cheek. He lifted his head and touched his lips with mine. "I wanted to ask you something. Well the other day when we were going I was going to walk you back to your house. And you were scared they were going to hurt you. What did you mean?" Asked Edan making sure I was looking into his eyes. I didn't want him to get mad; he scares me so much when he's mad.
"Well yeah. Um... well when a slave does something he or she isn't supposed to do you get punished. But mostly beaten. Now I am defiantly going to get beaten and maybe sold because I was gone for about four days" I was sorry for saying that but its true. "I won't let that happen to you! I will kill anyone who ever hurts you Jazlyn and I swear on that. I love you" Edan's voice got softer at the last statement. He said 'I love you' know one has ever told me that before. The words made my heart sore and my stomach tingly. "I love you too" its even better saying it! It's so nice to say that to someone and to hear it back. He smiled his beautiful smile at my response. He kissed me again and then sat up.
"We have a lot of stuff to do today. Today, I must return you" His smile faded and his eyes grew dim. I didn't want to go back! I want to say here with you! I thought. I forgot Edan could read my mind. "I wish you could but you have to go back. Dimitri will know something's wrong." I heard him say in my head. I grabbed my dress and slipped it on. I walked away from him in disappointment.
Know matter what Edan said to Lisa I would be punished. I walked into the bathroom and looked at my reflection. I was a tall, pale, thin, and had beautiful long black hair that some girls would die for. My teeth were naturally straight and white; my eyes are a deep dark brown. The last time I had looked into my reflection was a year ago when I had sneaked into Portia's room. I didn't realize how much I had grown since then. I was a fully a woman now.
Edan walked into the bathroom and put his hand on my shoulder. I tore myself away from the mirror to look into his eyes. "You are so beautiful" he said plainly with a sort of envious tone. "So are you" Oh my god I can't believe I just said that. My face had turned red with embarrassment. He laughed at my response, which made me feel comfortable again.
"Are you ready to go?" He asked putting on his jacket.
"Yes." We left the house and started to walk.
Outside was beautiful. The trees were changing into calm colors and the air smelt of fall. To disrupt the silence I laughed. I have know idea why I did but I did. He turned to me with a puzzled look.
"Did I do something?"
"No"
"Then why'd you laugh"?
"Because I felt like laughing. I won't be laughing for a long time after this."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because, being with you are so much fun. I never have anyone to talk to or be with. Its nice to have a...friend"
"A friend. Is that what you call me."
"Well yes. What would you want me to call you?"
"I don't know maybe you can call me your lover or boyfriend at least."
"Fine. Then it's nice to have a boyfriend."
"There that's better."
Edan took hold of my hand. He stopped short and he pulled me toward him. The next thing I knew I was in the woods in front of my house. "How'd you do that?" I asked startled at the change in scenery.
"Magic" he said plainly and laughed.
"Whatever. Okay listen when we go to the door say you found me while you were out on a stroll and I was unconscious or something"
"Calm down everything will be okay."
"What about the necklace, the one with the black roses?"
"Keep it. It's for you."
"Thank you"
Nothing Edan said would make me feel any better. But keeping the necklace made me feel a little better.
"When will I see you again?"
"I will come every night."
We walked up to the old wooden door. Portia answered. She looked at Edan with a seductive look. "Hello madam. I am Mr. Rossdale. May I speak to the lady of the house please?" Said Edan giving her a stern look.
"Yes, why don't you come and make yourself comfortable Mr. Rossdale."
Said Portia looking at Edan with extreme pleasure.
I stood behind Edan as we walked in following Portia to the family room. Portia showed Edan where to sit. He moved to sit down and revealed to Portia my presence. "You witch! Where have you been? You are going to get what you deserve!" Portia spat sprinting out of the room to get Lisa. Edan looked at me with a sorry expression.
"Don't worry darling I'll handle it" he said brushing my hands with his. I didn't respond. I just stood there shaking in my skin. I was scared to death.
Lisa walked in and pushed me into the wall forcefully. Edan saw and stood up. I shook my head as a hint to not say anything. He still looked at me with fury. I knew he could read my mind so I thought "no please don't you'll give us away!" He responded "Fine but if she does one more thing I'll hurt her!"
I nodded again and looked at Lisa. She was staring at Edan just like Portia is. Edan said finally "Hello, I am Mr. Rossdale. I have returned Jazlyn to you. She was in the woods unconscious. I took her to my home and cared for her wounds."
Lisa turned to me in disgust. "Oh thank you Mr. Rossdale. She is just a servant. There was no hurry to return her. Please stay for dinner it will be ready soon. Jazlyn go help Marsha with dinner!" She commanded her tone of voice changed instantly. I looked at Edan once more. This will be the last time I will see him until the next night. I looked at Lisa then Portia. "You heard you selfish pig go!" Spat Portia turning away from me to look at Edan. I walked down the corridor cursing furiously with tears blurring my sight.
I went to the kitchen and helped with the dinner. It was torture! I wanted to rip out every strand of hair from Portia long blond hair. I wanted to take the knife in my hand and cut up Lisa's face until she knelt in front of me pleading for mercy.
Before I knew it was time to bring the food to the dinning room. I saw Portia sitting next to Edan giggling stupidly. Lisa sat across from her horrible offspring. Portia keep on touching Edan's hands, hair, arm, and legs every chance she got. I put the food on the table and left to fetch the soup.
I put a bowl in front of Lisa, then Edan. This time Portia had gone too far. She turned Edan's face towards her and gave him a quick swipe with her lips. I was full of anger. Edan pulled away and moved his chair closer to the door. I took Portia steaming hot soup in my hand and smiled at her. "Here's your dish madam" and spilt it all over her new dress. She screamed and stood up. She ran over to me and slapped me across the face as hard as she could hit.
Edan stood up and stood in front of me. Portia looked at him in jealousy. "Madam, contain yourself. If you don't I'll make you!" Edan said his voice cold with anger.
Portia screamed once more and stomped off to the next room. "Ms. LeBlanque that went too far..." but before Edan could finish she took my arm and forcefully pulled my over to her. "Oh she doesn't act like at all. Please excuse her behavior. She has a little temper problem. As for you Jazlyn go to your room and stay there for the rest of the night, and all tomorrow no meals!"
I left the room ashamed at what I did. What's wrong with me? That is going to get me a wiping. I let my feelings control me. That was a bid mistake.
I walked to the dungeon decided to lie down. I felt sick. A sickness that was overwhelming. I took out the necklace and looked at the roses' comfort. I longed to be back in Edan's arms away from this place. I wanted to be anywhere but here. I closed my eyes and hoped it was all a dream. I soon cried my self to sleep.
I was running in the woods with someone behind me. He caught up to me and tilted my neck to reveal my vein. I pushed, and punched him. I screamed and cried out for help. I looked at the man. He was tall, muscular, blond hair, and black eyes. He had two long skin piercing teeth in his mouth. I screamed "Edan! Edan help me!" The man laughed coldly. He whispered "your mine" in my ear before...
Someone shook me awake. I sat up quickly realizing it was all a dream. "Jazlyn it's me calm down," said someone putting their hand over my mouth. It was Edan. He put his arms around me for comfort. I started crying. I felt so stupid crying in front of him. But I couldn't stop. "Its okay I'm here."
"He tried to bite me Edan. I was so scared" I cried out.
"Who?"
"I don't know"
"What does he look like?"
"He has blond hair, black eyes, and is very muscular. He looked about 24 at least."
"Dimitri. He knows I'm protecting you from him."
"What does that mean?"
"He'll be looking for you. Listen Jazlyn; don't go wandering around at night without me. If he approaches you in the market ignore him or say you got to get back work or something. I don't know what he'll do. But I'll be there always remember that."
I finally calmed down. "Thank you" I whispered. I felt my tingles come back again. The thought of him watching me was exciting in a way. Even though I have some ancient vampire who wants to kill me it sort of made me feel... well special. Only because I've never had anyone caring about me being alive and staying alive. Edan would sacrifice his own life for mine. I wanted to show him my affection again.
He must have read my mind again and he kissed me passionately.
"Would you stop reading my mind! I would like to keep my thoughts to myself sometimes!" I said with anger.
"Except for that thought?"
"Except for that thought."
"Good. Come here." He commanded standing up.
I stood up and stood in front of him. "Why did you want me to stand up?" I asked curiously.
"Quiet."
I blinked for not even second and when I opened my eyes I was lying down on the grass in an open field. There were mountains and large pine trees in the distance. The air smelt of snow it made me shiver with delight. "Where are we?"
"Well, right now we are in a country called Canada."
"Canada? Wow!"
He laughed deeply and then propped himself up on his elbow. He just looked ad smiled at me. I felt my face redden.
"Why are you looking at me?" I blurted out.
"Because you're beautiful" he said plainly.
I giggled stupidly. I felt so comfortable around him. I've only known him for a couple of days and I feel like I've known him forever.
The wind started to blow harder and I held my arms across my chest.
"Are you cold?" He asked with a concerned tone in his voice.
"Yes" I replied. Edan then moved close to me and the pressed my head against his chest. He put his warm comforting arms around me. We lay there looking up at the stars. Before I knew it I dozed off to sleep.
I woke up in my bed alone. "Was that all a dream or was I in a country called Canada?" I asked myself silently. Then I saw a note on my nightstand that read:
You fell asleep. I brought you back before dawn don't worry know one saw us. I shall see you tonight be ready.
Love,
Edan
I can't wait till I see him again. I was so excited I felt all warm inside. Then I remembered what happened yesterday when I heard footsteps marching down the stairs. I stood up automatically when the door swung open. Standing there before me was a large man. He had dark brown eyes, and strawberry blond hair. He looked at me fiercely. I was scared of what was to happen.
He broke the silence but I wish he hadn't. He pulled out a scroll and unwound it carefully.
"Ms. Jazlyn LeBlanque owned by Lisa LeBlanque has requested a punishment for thee Jazlyn. You have broken five codes of law. First Law: disobeying the commander of the house. Second: Making physical violence to a madam higher than your status. Third: Created harm to someone higher than your status. Forth: Trying to create a noble of one self by seduction. And Fifth: Running away for amount of days and found. The punishment is 15 slashes and 2 days in jail unless the Lady of the House wants to drop the charges. But I don't think that'll happen" he said meanly.
"When does this punishment take place?" I asked with a raspy tone. I was scared of his answer. The only way to get out of this is to plead Lisa. And that will be my last resort.
"At sunset today. Well, I must be going now. Good day!" He said then left the room.
I sat down on my bed and stayed still in shock. What am I supposed to do? If Edan sees this take place there is going to be more blood shed then it would be with just my blood. But somehow I hope he does see and save me from the punishment. Maybe I disserve it. I mean I did spill soup all on Portia's dress, and disappeared for about four days. How could I get out of control like that?
I started to weep tragically. I laid down with my face in the pillow. I heard the door open again. I turned and saw Portia smug face.
"Aw. Poor baby!" She said sarcastically and started laughing. "Disserves you right. I swept Mr. Rossdale off his feet and you had to get in the way! You fool. Every cry you make at sunset, I will be there to laugh and enjoy the pain in your cries for mercy. After this you won't have ANY problems anymore right Jazlyn?" She said horribly.
"Yes" I breathed from my pillow.
"Good! See you at the party!" She laughed leaving the room.
When she left I cried even more. I soon fell asleep with my misery. Another dream showered over me.
I was in the forest covered by the arms of Dimitri. He held my neck back tightly. "You'll always be mine!" He whispered again.
"What do you want with me!" I yelled out in terror. He just laughed and threw me on the ground. I fell so had it knocked the wind out of me. I gasped for breath in pain. I banged my arm on a sharp rock. A bruise started to form.
"Do you have any idea who you are? Or what you are for that matter?" He asked. I lifted my head up carefully and pushed my hair out of my face.
"No" I said panicking.
"You are the source! You are the being that can bring us back to life! All the damned can walk in the sun again. Live among human being again! Your parents are the hunters. Except they were the hunted when you were brought into this world."
"Who are the hunters?" I asked trying to keep him from killing me.
"The one's who are born with a special type of blood this blood makes you stronger than normal humans are and makes you very desirable to my kind. Well, anyway. I found your parents and I killed your father. Your mother I changed into one of the undead. Except my plans were changed when she went into labor with you. I delivered you and before I could finish the changing your mother died. I knew you were now part vampire because you ingested my blood. I put you in an orphanage and swore I would retrieve you later and finish my job."
"What's your job?"
"To change you into one of us so you can't use your power on us."
"How did I get that power of changing your kind into human again?"
"When your blood and my blood mixed it created a new species of a human being. An advanced being. You are very desirable to my species and yours. That's why you are a being that can change the world..."
Before he could finish someone shook me awake. It was Lisa. She was dressed in all black. "Come on girl its time!" She said with a smirk on her face. I stood up and followed her to the back yard.
The man who read the rules to me was already out there. So was all the servants and Portia. The servants looked at me with pity but Portia stood there with excitement and revenge. I looked at the floor until I reached a low to the ground table. Lisa pushed me down and ripped open the upper part of my dress to reveal my back. I closed my eyes ready to feel incredible amount of pain but there was none.
I lay in the bed covered up in a maroon blanket. I woke up from gentle kisses in my neck where Edan had bit me. I fluttered my eyes and kissed the side of his cheek. He lifted his head and touched his lips with mine. "I wanted to ask you something. Well the other day when we were going I was going to walk you back to your house.
