Chapter 13
"This room is beautiful Draca."
"Your mother had it made when you were born. All it needs now is your touches and it will be yours forever."
The room was beautiful. The carpet was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. Shades of blue worked together to make it look like you were standing on the sea. The walls were so red they looked black. The ceiling was black with a storm raging in the center. The outer part of the ceiling had stars that seemed to glow in her presence. Calling all her items she packed from home she floated them to their respective places and smiled at the results. It really did look like the perfect room for her. "Draca I will be making the offering tonight. Please inform Lorn of this."
"As you sssay my lady."
"Oh and if you could tell all my visitors that I am resting and do not want to be disturbed."
"I will do so."
"Thank you Draca."
Smiling her serpent smile Draca left. 'The time has come for her destiny to finally reveal itself. Lorn will be very happy.'
Damn he was good. It was before dawn and he was standing on the stairs to the keep. He felt her inside. Walking up the stairs he figured that he should tell Jaenelle where they had ended up. *Jaenelle...*
*You have five seconds to tell me where the hell you are. *
*I'm at the keep and she is here with me. *
*You had better make sure that she stays there until we arrive. *
*I will. *
Cutting off her link with Daemonar she turned to the males in the family. "We are heading to the keep in five minutes I suggest that you get ready." Walking toward her room she was slowed down when Daemon grabbed her by the shoulder.
"Is she at the keep Jaenelle?"
"Yes and I think she will be there for awhile so pack some things and tell everyone the same. Meet in the main entrance. Don't be late."
Lucivar sent a quick message out to Marian that they wouldn't be coming home tonight and to meet them at the keep in the morning. This was going to be a stressful day.
Damn those males that couldn't tell time. Saetan, Valyn, and Lucivar were standing next to her and that damn Daemon was missing.
Running as fast as he could Daemon practically threw himself down the stairs and right into Jaenelle's accusing stare.
"You are late Prince and you had better be glad that I didn't leave your sorry ass here. Beale you know what to do just make sure you take it easy while we're gone."
"Yes Lady Jaenelle and may the darkness speed your travels."
"Thank you Beale."
Opening her eyes she noticed that the sun was almost touching the horizon. She stood and went to her wardrobe. Noticing a new piece of clothing in there she pulled it out and caught her breath. It was the purest black she had ever seen. The dress ran to the floor flowing out when it got to the waist. The sleeves ran to the floor with golden dragons running up them. *Thank you Draca. *
*It was not me child it was Lorn. *
*Thank you Lorn. *
*It was my pleasure child. Put it on and hurry, it is almost time. *
Putting it on she smiles at herself in the mirror. Walking out of her room she almost fell when she saw her mother's face. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm not the only one that wants to throttle you ten ways."
"What do you mean?"
"Everyone is here and I would like to know what you are doing here?"
"Ssshe is preparing to make her offering Jaenelle. If you keep talking ssshe will be late. Come child, Lorn awaits."
"Yes Draca. I will be out at dawn and then we will talk."
She watched her daughter walk down the hallway and finally noticed her dress. "Where in the name of hell did you get that dress young lady?!"
"This room is beautiful Draca."
