Amorelli
I woke up in a moving car. The bag was still over my face and my hands were tied behind my back. I lifted my head and noticed Zinniah was next to me.
"Z?" I whispered and she mumbled, notifying me she heard.
"Are you okay?" I needed to make sure she was okay due to my growing nerves.
"Yes. I think. My wrists hurt though and I have no clue as to where we are, but I'm fine." I sighed in relief as she told me this.
"Same here." The items holding our wrists together were very tight. I didn't like it one bit. I was worried as to where they were taking us. But one thing is for sure, I don't think they are taking us to Mordikai.
All of a sudden, the car stopped. I didn't know where we were but they took off the restraints and the bags on our hands and wrists. The moonlight making the palace we were in front of look magnificent. It had a very large driveway, and the moonlight lit our way to the front door.
"Wow..." Zinniah mumbled as she looked around. We didn't have much more time to look as the people who took us pushed us along. As we made our way to the front doors I saw all kinds of flowers. They looked like they were wilting though. Zinniah saw then and frowned, hoping to help them. Maybe later she can help them. As we're led inside, there are guards everywhere. At least two per door. We then saw this big set of double doors, and there were four at this one. This room must be of high importance. The guards stepped aside and opened the door for us, everyone glaring at us, as if we are trash. I frowned at the thought.
I couldn't help but admire the room we had entered. It was very large, it looked like a ballroom. I then looked to my right and there were four thrones. Two for the king and queen and two for the children. But the kind and queen of Russia only have one child, Mordikai. So why are there two chairs? Maybe the other child died years ago. I again, frowned at the thought. I turned my attention to the king and queen. The king looked terrifying. His face looked like it had a permanent scowl, and he was glaring at both of us. I then looked towards the queen and she was smiling slightly. They must know one of us is their sons mate.
Hopefully they don't do anything terribly awful to us, we did technically trespass on everyone's land. Therefore it makes us criminals.
Oh dear.
I gulped as I looked down, ashamed and scared of what the consequences of our actions will be. Then he king started to talk and I looked up.
"You have trespassed onto our land, why?" He even sounded scary. I could tell Zinniah isn't going to talk, so I took the lead.
"We are looking for someone sir, actually your son, Mordikai." I'm not going to lie, I am terrified. The glare in his eyes, the scowl, it was all so intimidating. I gulped once again.
"Why? I'm sure neither of you have business with him." He said coldly. He was staring straight at me.
"Your highness, I am your sons mate. Princess Amorelli Agnelli, and this is Zinniah Waters, princess of the Amazon. We were kid napped as children and held hostage-"
" I do not care for your worthless back story. You're lying and you will be taken care of at once. Take gen away!" He yells and I look at the queen and I see fear, but also happiness. Why is she happy? Is she not going to help her sons mate? She immediately turns towards him and starts talking. More like arguing. Zinniah and I are being dragged away, when I spot a family portrait. I see a young girl. Long light brown hair, and dark green eyes. She looks very familiar and I can't shake the feeling that I know her from somewhere. I look over to Zinniah, and saw her looking at the same picture. She sighs and I do not too long after. We both recognize her but we don't know where from.
This is going to bug me.
As we start reaching a dirty looking door, I remembered.
It's Samara.
One of the other sex slaves.
That's who the other chair is for.
Immediately, I tear out if he men's grasps and start running for the thrones. They have to know.
"Amorelli!" Zinniah screams for me but I don't turn back. I ran across the ballroom only to be grabbed from behind.
"You don't understand! I know where she is!" I tried saying but the man put his hand over my mouth, so it was somewhat muffled. I then think of what I can do with my powers. I get an idea. I kick him where the sun doesn't shine and he lets go. I run a couple of feet away and start making a huge ball of water. I then throw it at him once he got up and invaded him in it. The other man started running towards me but I put him inside as well.
"Your majesty-" I start out and the king looks like he's about to shift.
"I know where she is!" I yell and everyone stops, Zinniah managed to get over to me and take the guys out of the water and tie them up securely with thorny vines. I release the water over the guards and they are gasping for breath.
"You liar" the king yells and shifts, charging for Zinniah and I. I splash water on he floor and he slips and tumbles in front of us.
"Now Zinniah!" She places her hand on his face. Her eyes go blurry, as do his. The queen walks forward in confusion and fear. A moment later Z takes her hands off the king and his eyes start to water.
"My Samara... What have you done to her!" He screams but he bursts into tears moments later.
"We haven't done anything. She was taken just like us."
"Let me see my baby." He queen asks and Zinniah grabs her hands and looks into her eyes. The queen starts crying as well and joins her husband. I feel terrible, but relieved. They know she is alive, however she is not safe.
The king then looks up once more.
"Kill them."
"What?" We both ask astonished. The guards shift into their massive wolves and the kind and queen go back to their thrones.
"We're the only ones who know where Samara is! If you kill us you'll never get her back." I scream I at.
"That whore is not my daughter!" He screams back and I lost my breath. How could you say that about your own daughter? Your only daughter. I felt anger book inside of me.
The guards were snapping their jaws at us, nipping us in the process. Zinniah and I were back to back.
"Ready?" I asked silently, knowing they could hear us.
"Yes."
"One."
"Two."
"Three."
I then started throwing my boiling water at the them. She then shifted into a wolf. She wasn't as large as them, but now she had a little advantage. She was like them. I on the other hand once again had guards in a ball of water. The queen gasped.
Zinniah then shifted into a dragon after a few minutes. I was still doing other things, like drowning the guards, throwing them against walls, creating tidal waves at guards, and burning them with boiling water. I turn around to take more guards out but see Zinniah has done just that. She became a poisonous flower, spitting darts at people. I then grew curious. I started throwing water at her stem, and she began to grow larger and larger. Perfect. Then all of a sudden, my heart started racing. The door had slammed open and six people were at the door. The one in front being unbelievably handsome. His dark black hair and dark blue eyes, his sun kissed skin looked amazing in the light, and the way he looked at me, I saw pride, love, and happiness. Zinniah then shifted back into her human form and the newly entered people gasped. I got rid of the tidal wave and balls of water.
What he said next, I was not expecting, but was hoping he would say it, and it would be my Mordikai.
"Mate." He growled and started walking towards me. My breath caught in my throat and he was at my side in lightning speed. He held me, breathed in my scent, and growled in what only I can assume is approval.
"What happened." He growled at me and I flinched. His eyes were black with anger, and he didn't sound happy like he did one minute ago. I felt like I had to become obedient with him so this wouldn't happen again.
"Your father ordered to have us killed." I whispered quietly, my gaze not leaving his. Sparks were left all across my skin, and I wanted nothing more for him to hold me forever, never letting go.
And then he growled. It shook the entire room. I gasped and pulled out of his grasp slightly. This was my mate? A very angry man? I saw hurt flash in his eyes when I backed away, but then anger consumed them again, and he went to confront his father.
"How dare you try and order the death of my mate!" He roars and I scream slightly and go over to Zinniah. I was terrified. No way was he my mate.
"She is a fish! We need a pure werewolf bloodline! Not some fish every now and then!" He roars and I realize why he hates me. He wants a pure bloodline. Like I get that but he won't even give me a chance.
"She is my mate! How would you feel if mother was ordered to be killed? Huh!" He is shaking and he looks like he's starting to shift. I have the sudden urge to try and calm him down, but what if he hits me? I'm very scared of that outcome.
"You will mate with the beta's daughter and that's final!" His father roars back and now the queen is stepping in. She grabbed a hold on her mates arm. I think that is what I should do.
I start walking over to him, he's taking deep breaths to calm himself down. As I reach him he turns around and I stop for a second. His fangs are out and his eyes are blacker than space. I slowly approach him and place my hand on his chest. Right above his heart. He closes his eyes and breathes in deeply before pulling me towards him, the familiar sparks engulfing me. I wrap my arms around him and let him sit there.
"Are you alright, Mordikai?" I ask quietly and he freezes. Shit. Should I have not said his name? Oh god he's going to hurt me.
"I like the way my name sounds from your mouth, Amorelli." I shiver when he says my name. I look back at him and see he beautiful dark blue eyes I'm already falling in love with. He brushed his nose along my neck, and that didn't help the shivers I already had from him holding me and saying my name.
"Amorelli is my mate. I will mate with her and we will have pups. That's final." He glared at his father as he said this. It made my heart speed up, knowing that he wanted me. His mate, not some random girl. I smiled lightly at the thought. We then started making our way out the throne room, when his mother spoke up.
"They know where Samara is." Mordikai and his friends all stopped in their tracks and looked at us. I looked at my mate and saw his eyes fill with sadness and hope.
"You know where she is?" He whispers, tears forming in his eyes. I couldn't speak. I did not trust my voice, because seeing him like this was affecting me as well. I nodded.
"Prove it." His voice was hard as stone and that was all I needed to bring me out of my trance. I looked over to Zinniah and she placed her hand on his cheek and looked into his eyes. He started shaking in anger. I placed my hand on his arm, but it didn't help. He pushed me off of him and stepped away from Zinniah.
"We will talk more about this later. It is late, and we all need rest. First thing tomorrow morning, you both will meet me in my office to talk about where it is and how to get there." He then started to walk away.
