Gabriella Monet POV
I almost ended up getting killed by those who I thought were my family. Thanks to the voice who helped me out of the trance I was in. I woke up screaming out loud and as usual, I was in the blue room.
“Gabriella,” I heard someone calling my name and it belonged to no other person than my stupid master. “Thank goodness you’ve woken up,” he suddenly engulfed me in a hug.
“Really? This is weird because the last time I remembered you watched me get beaten”
“That’s not what happened. I stopped the whipping,” he tried to explain but I wasn’t in the mood to hear him say anything or even come close to me.
“Get away from me, you monster!” I yelled and pushed him off me.
“Can’t you see that I’m trying to help you here?”
“Help me? The last time I checked, you slapped me on the face and here you are pretending as if you care.” I scoffed and turned away from him.
“Gabby, calm down alright. You just woke up.” Kyle or whatever his name was said to me but I did not care a bit about what he just said. All I wanted was to get off this bed and get the hell out of the stupid castle.
“I do not care and I didn’t ask for your opinion, ” I lashed out at him. A guy who I haven’t seen before was gulping on blood bags as if he was drinking water.
“Disgusting,” I shook my head at his state. I came out of the bed and removed the bed cover of my body.
“Calm down little girl. You just recovered,” A man who was wearing a white lab coat said to me.
“Just how many people are in this room?” I thought as I looked around me.
“Rest child.” The doctor said again and it got me angry because first, he called me a little girl, and now he just called me a child.
“Little girl? Child? Do I look like a freaking little girl to you?” I yelled and stood up from the bed but when my feet landed on the ground, I staggered and fell to the ground Slade decided it was the best time to touch and helped me up but being the bitch that I was, I pushed him off me and pointed an accusing finger at him.
“I thought vampires have good hearings but you appear to be deaf. Do not touch me!” I shouted and pushed him off me again. Just then, the door burst open and Daphne and elegance entered.
“Oh my goodness, gabby!” Daphne rushed at me and pulled me for a quick hug. “You are alive!” She exclaimed.
“Did I die before?” I asked with sarcasm and she laughed.
“Fuck you gabby,” she cursed and hugged me again. “I have missed you, Gabriella. You were on that bed for days and I thought you were dead until Teale,” she pointed to the bloodsucker that was still drinking from the blood bags on the floor.
“Who is he?” I asked while I stared at him and the state he was in.
“That’s is king brother’s son, Prince Teale.” Elegance explained to me and I continued to stare at the vampire on the ground. When our eyes met, he growled at me and rushed to me but he was pulled back by Slade.
“Elegance, take her to her room,” Slade commanded.
“Right. Gabriella let’s leave,” she pulled me by the arm but I couldn’t help but stare at the vampire whose eyes had loose all color but were a shade of purple. Why was he like that? I thought as I went out of the room with Daphne and elegance.
On the way to my room, Daphne and Elegance talked about how Slade offered me his blood so that I could survive and how Tea or tale saved me from the dream I was having.
The dream!
I just remembered the frightening dream. What was Bianca trying to tell me? I pondered on whether to tell Daphne or not but my friend isn’t the one to keep secrets so I decided not to tell her anything.

Slade Donovan POV
When Gabriella woke up, I was glad but the way she acted like I was dirt made me hate myself. I knew she hated me but I wanted her to see I didn’t give a flying fuck about her. All I cared about was making sure she was fine and that is because she reminded me of Bianca.
When she left with Daphne and elegance, I wanted to follow her and stay with her until she was fine but I am a prince that demands respect, and no human, not even the girl who looked like my dead lover was going to disrespect me.
“Can I leave now?” The doctor’s voice bought me out of my thoughts.
“Thank you, doctor,” I said to him.
The doctor bowed and left the room while Kyle stayed behind to help me with Teale who was losing his mind. His fangs were out and the vein on his neck became noticed as he growled at me.
“What should we do about him?” Kyle asked.
“Lock him in his room and knock him out.”
“And what happens when he wakes up. Do you think he would have calmed down?”
“Maybe. That is the better solution or do you have a better one?” I asked.
“No, I don’t.”
“Right. Let’s take him to his room now,” I said to him and we both pulled Teale out of the room. It wasn’t easy to handle a pure-blooded hungry vampire but in Teale’s situation, it was hard. When we got to his room, we laid him on the bed but he stood up and ran to the door.
“He is going insane. What do you suggest we do now?” Kyle asked in a nervous tone?
I thought of what to do and when I got my idea, I walked to where Teale was and snapped his neck. Teale groaned and fell to the ground with his eyes close.
“How long do you think he would be out?”
“With the energy he used and the amount of blood he took, he should be out for at least two days”
“What if father asked of him?” Kyle asked.
“We will just tell him that he refuses to come out of his room.”
“Alright bro,” Kyle agreed to my suggestion.
With his help, we laid Teale on his bed and locked his room.
“Gabby seems to hate me too,” Kyle voiced out.
“The person Gabriella has a grudge with is me and not you. Everything that had happened is because of her and she is too sassy to see it.”
Yes, she was because she is sassy, ungrateful, and really rude. Do not I mean never judge a book by its cover. We saved her from death but she was too proud to see that.
She was too sassy that I let down my pride as a prince and saved her dying ass.
