School was okay. Death was disturbing me during class occasionally, nothing I couldn't handle. It wasn't like the demon was talking, just giving me weird, slightly painfull little shocks throughout the day.

Darkness later came to pick me up, and not after we got home he bid me goodbye. It was weird seeing him leave. I almost felt that I loved him, but at the same time I hated him. Like two parts of my body were at war.

"I will never forgive you if you grow to love him. He did the unforgivable in the past, and a stupid girl like you is bound to fall for his trickery. " Death said inside me head.

"Shut up!" I said aloud, startling some maids. I was sitting in dinning room, attempting to get some homework done when death invaded my thoughts.

"Are you alright, Miss Anna?" One of the maids, Mary, asked me.

" Yes. I think I'm going to take a walk. I'll eat something when I get back, don't bother saving anything for me." I say to Mary and the other maids.

After I leave our house I finally feel free. The fresh air and sent of the recently mowed lawn felt invigorating.

I automatically started walking in the direction of the nearest coffee shop. I'd been escaping to the shop ever since Isaac started letting me go out by myself a couple of years ago.

After a couple of minutes I arrived, I  went to counter so Jerry, the barista, could take my order. Jerry already knew my order, so he told me to go wait by the coffee makers on the the other side of counter.

The bell rang, a sign a new customer had arrived. I didn't typically care if other people came in and disrupted the peace, as long as it wasn't Isaac or one of the maids. This time it was two girls, one was pale and had black hair and bright red lips. She was tall and had an amazing figure. The other girl had tanned skin and blond hair, she was pretty in the sort of way supermodels were. The girls didn't stand out because they were pretty, it was something else, something I couldn't exactly pinpoint.

The girls ignored Jerry's welcoming and headed straight towards me.
"Your majesty." They both said in unison, and bowed. "Lord Isaac requests your presence at the castle. We have been sent to escort you. "

What?!
