Chapter three - Strangers

"My name is Corin" He spoke the man I belonged too, my master or so he likes to think. I have been a vampire for about a hundred years and I still had not fed on any blood. The fire in my throat burned continuously, over the years I began to ignore it, now it was just a dull aching pain in the back of my throat.

"My name is Lucy and this is my mate Santiago. Its nice too meet you. You have a lovely home. And who is this?" She spoke sweetly, looking towards me.

Corin merely laughed and shook his head "Oh that is my pet, Bella. She is nothing of importance." He spoke neatly without a care in the world. Lucy and Santiago looked towards me with pity, but did not say anything they knew that their business was minding their own. The same for every vampire in the United Kingdom. When I was human, Edward did not tell me everything about vampires. He did not mention that in some places it was perfectly acceptable to have a pet, human or vampire alike. And that the things that happen are beyond awful. As the three vampires continued on, I thought back too my first day here and how everything had changed.

Victoria shoved me out of the cave and towards a car, I looked around and saw that I was in the middle of a forest, I believed that I was still in forks. The car stood on a dirt track that seemed to flow through the woods. I looked at the sky and saw that it was nighttime. There was no moon, which represented a change to me. A new beginning and by the looks of things not a nice one. Victoria shoved me into the back of the car and the other male vampire got in beside me. I had no way of escaping and I just had to sit back and try to calm myself.

"Where are we going? Where are you taking me too?" I snapped and the vampire beside me hit me across the face and I had to admit, it hurt quite a bit. "What was that for?" I yelled and he punched me this time.

"Easy on the goods" Victoria spoke as she got into the drivers side, as soon as she sat down the car began to veer off. The speed did not spook me as it would of when I was human. I made myself not think of the Cullen until I could find the opportune moment. "Lets just get one thing straight Bella, you are lower than you were even as a human now. If you do not fight this, you might find it okay to live with. But you will need to learn the rules. Mine as well as Corin's." She spoke to me looking at me through the wind mirror.

"Number one, you are a pet, so act like one, you don't speak unless spoken too. Second, you do not look directly in the eye of anyone unless they say too." She stopped and I realised we were in at Seattle airport, and when we drove closer I realised that there was a private jet waiting for us. The car came to a stop and I was dragged out of it. And pulled into the jet, thrown into a chair and then I was left alone. During the journey, I was left alone and I started to think of Edward. I missed him so much and his death was in my hands. I had killed them all, with a choice, I should never have made. Maybe I deserve whatever is going to happen too me I thought too myself. I had become so engrossed in the pain that came with my memories of Edward that I did not realise that I had started too dry sob over my loss. "Settle down now, Bella, we will be there soon" Victoria spoke. I made a great effort to contain myself and by the time we landed, I had gained control over my crying.

I realised as I got of the plane that I was in the UK, but I was unsure where. Victoria shoved me into another car and we set off again. After what felt like forever we arrived at a home, well it was more of a castle, surrounded by a great big wrought iron fence in the middle of a forest. The car stopped at a gate and the gate opened almost instantly. We drove through to the entrance and I was dragged even more, eventually Victoria added a blindfold in front of my eyes and I was plunged in to darkness.

After what felt like forever, I was pushed to my knees, where I decided to stay. I heard voices and I started to listen to what was going on around me. "Ah, welcome back Victoria, it's nice to see you. Oh and you brought the girl with you. Wonderful." Said a cheery old voice and I guessed that that was Corin.

"Yes, I brought her as I said I would; now I need to ask if I can leave on my own for a while, I have some grieving to do." Victoria spoke to him as if he was a father.

"Why of cause, you take however long you need to." He replied..

Someone yelling at me snatched me back to the present.

"Pet! Listen when I am speaking too you! You know the rules!" my master was screaming at me and I looked at him. "Lucy and Santiago are leaving, say goodbye and don't be rude!" He yelled again.

"Goodbye" I squealed and looked down. I tried to shut my senses of as I had in the beginning, but that just never worked anymore.

I heard the other vampires leave and I knew I was in trouble.

"Now pet, stand!" Corin yelled, and very slowly, I began to stand up.
