Two Days Later

"Good morning, Lady Eve. It is time to wa- Oh. Never mind then."

Eve Lynn Alexander sighed softly as she glanced up at the maid. She was already dressed for the day and prepared to go down for breakfast. The Maid herself seemed a little surprised that she was up and awake. But still she smiled warmly at her and walked behind her to check the laces at the back of her dress.

"You are awfully up and awake, Lady Eve. You are usually still asleep at this time." Responded Sarah, a servant that had served and taken care of Eve ever since she was 4 years old. They were more like friends then Mistress and Servant. The woman seemed about in her mid 40s with hair that glowed like fire. She was alittle chubby but not fat. It always seemed like nothing would stop Sarah from doing her job. Not even a large Chocolet Cake. Well, she wasn't that faithful.

Eve smiled lightly at her freind and servant, "I could not sleep well last night. Is… is that normal for a woman that is soon to become someone's wife?"

"It depends, My Lady." She replied, undoing the laces to correct the pattern on the dress. Laces were in the wrong holes and there were knots that were tangled up in other knots, "In your place, your being promised to a man that you have never seen before. I'm sure you have every right to be afraid."

Another sigh rushed from her mouth as Eve stared down at the white marble floors beneath her. Her maid was right. She was at the proper age of twenty and getting married to someone she had never met in her life. As far as she heard of her future husband, he was powerful, rich, and rumored to be rather hansom. He was a great Merchant, usually travels to afar for long periods of time. She heard that he had decided to start a family just a week ago, and had an eye on her for some time now.

Just last month she had turned twenty, now able of be married and bare children. Not to mention she was very polite and skillful at different languages and cultures. But how could the man she was to marry could possibly know such things about her, and yet she didn't even know that he existed?

"There we are. It is all fixed now" Sarah's voice brought Eve back to the real world. Back to the more depressing world. A world where a woman had no choice to choose who she married and how old she would have to be. But there was no such world. And she really had no right to complain.

Her future husband was wealthy. He had enough money to keep them both well fed, and even any future children. There was planty of land he owned and were there is land, there would be more interesting things to draw in her paintings. No wonder her parents gave her away so easily. No. Give away wasn't an easy word. Let go was more of the word. Neither were her mother nor father were too happy about sending their only daughter out to another man. Neither was she.

The maid checked her hair, makeing sure all the pins were intact so they wouldn't fall out so easily. Eve must have done it right since the maid didn't mess with anything else. Insted she walked up infront of Eve and smiled at the sight of her, "You look lovely, my lady."

With a sigh, she tried to smile her best, but no such luck. "I..." She said softly, "am so blessed."

"Nay, My Lady, you are not so lucky neither are you blessed. A lucky and blessed woman is able to marry whoever she wishes."

Eve stared over at the maid, amazed by what she had just said. "Is that even possible? To marry someone that you love and care for deeply?"

"Yes. Of course it is. Not as likely for a woman like you, since you belong to a very wealthy family. But it is most defently possible. I'm sure of it."

"That only happens in feiry tales..." She whispered softly, now stareing down at the hem of her grown lightly sweeping the floor, "This is not a feiry tale."

Sarah opened her mouth to respond, but was stopped by another servant. The woman bowed her head softly, "Lady Eve, it is time for Breakfast."

Eve nodded her head, and sighed softly as she glanced over at Sarah. She gave her a sad smile before she made her way threw the halls and down towards the Dinning Room. There, she knew her mother and father were waiting for her to arrive so they could all eat their last breakfast together.

The Dinning Room was silent. Sorrow filled the air so muh, Eve was nearly drunk from it. Her mother and father sat on the long dinning table, their food already laied out infront of them. She walked up to her mother and gave her the usual 'Good Morning, Mother' hug and kissed her father's cheek before she sat down at the table. Her food was bought out and laied infront of Eve.

Even the servants were silent as they went on the usual schedual; pouring the tea, carefully putting food on their plates, and bringing a few small sweets on the table with bread and butter. Only there was silence and sorrow. They were more then drunk of the emotion, they were intoxicated with it.

Her Father cleared his throat, ripping silence away from the air, "M'Dear, your future Husband is sending someone to take you to him. He says that you would have to travel threw Vampire territory, so he has sent a Vampire Hunter to lead and protect you. I was told that he also has planty of money to pay for food, drinks, and inns when you arrive to the towns. You don't need to bring anything with you. Just a few small things to do when you may have freetime or any time for yourself. Though it might be wise for you to take a weapon to protect yourself. I would feel better to know that my daughter is safe even for a second longer."

Eve sat there in her seat, stareing down at her folded hands that now rested on her lap. How could this have happened? How could this have happened to her in such a short moment? For all her life all she wanted to do was travel, see different places and cultures. Yes, at one point she might had wanted a small little family of her own, but this was going far too fast. She did not want to give herself to a man that she has never met. There should be a law or something against this!

Before she could stop herself, Eve stood up, "Father you cannot allow this to happen! Once I turn of age you just simply give me away to another man?" She was nearly shouting, which usually wasn't very lady like. But at this time of her life that her own family would just give her away was madness! Couldn't she just live her life the way she wanted to? Couldn't she give herself to someone she loves? If not, then why bothering to live?

"Do you acturally think this is easy for me? Handing over my only daughter is one thing but also sending her away in Vampire Territory? This is harder on me then you, Eve. Now finish your breakfust so then we can get you ready to go.." Her father was angry, probley to the point where he could stand up and slap her silly. She half exspected him to do so.

With anger all her own, Eve pushed the chair out and walked out of the Dinning Room, slamming the door behind her. Her eyes burned with tears as she fled threw the halls, running straight towards her room. She threw open the doors and dropped onto her bed. The room was quiet with her sobs and crying. How could they do this to her? To their own daughter! It was wrong. So wrong for them to do this.

She wanted to run until she ran out of breath and die on the ground. It would be alot better then to be marrying someone she has never met. She didn't know anything and had no control of her life. So what was the point in living it and calling it her own? Obviosly it wasn't.
