Chapter Five: Awakened. (Kysa's POV)

"Samuel!" I screamed into the darkness when I finally awoke. I don't know how long I was crying…It must have been long; the pillow was beyond soaked. "Ugh." I moaned, rolling over facing the what I believed outline of a door. I soon become unoriented. This room, it was to fair to be anything my master would let me sleep in.

I slowly sat up and watched the darkened room spin. Regaining myself, I finally stood. . Murmurs of voices were within earshot. Downstairs maybe? I reached for the doorknob, but it was already turning. The door was opening.

I jumped back, crouching in the farthest corner. I didn't realize it, but I was growling.

"Whoa now," A voice came from behind the opening door. The incoming light blinded my sensitive eyes from seeing the intruder. It was almost angelic, that of the prey. "that's no way to treat your host."

Host? I thought. Didn't that make me the parasite? I grinned the thought, but then fear overwhelmed me.

"Its okay, " He was for sure a vampire, his scent overpowered my senses. "Don't be afraid." He was large, strong. He could take out my tiny frame within seconds; Why did he not take that opportunity?

"You took a nasty bite out of my brother," He chuckled, and then sat down on the bed. I remained in my corner. "I must say I took some entertainment out of that…before I realized you're poison…" He voice trailed off. I couldn't help but feel some sympathy. This vampire shows me mercy, even after I harmed his own kin. Did I deserve any of this?

What finally dawned on me, was that my master…he was no where. Panic. Fear. I moved frantically towards the door. The large vampire reached out for me, but I turned and snapped at him. Another was holding me from behind. His voice was calm and friendly.

"Master!" I growled. "Master!" I finally feel limp in the other's arms. I could sense he was the eldest; the leader maybe? He released me and stood beside the large one. "You're master has freed you…" He said softly. "You're free."

Those words were poison to my ears. The most sinful sin. My fate had been sealed.
