Ch 1. Blackout

I let out a moan as I felt Azriel's fangs sink into my neck. She laid on top of me holding my wrists down, it didn't matter because I was already too weak to fight her.  Since I got here they have been injecting me with a drug that weakened me. Not only did it make me sluggish but it also prevented me from regenerating quickly.

She continued sucking my blood, biting deeper into my skin making me feel more pleasure. Vampires were able to make their victims feel pleasure or pain when they were bitten. She never made me feel pain only when I was being punished. I gasped as she took her fangs out of my neck. She stared at me with her bright red eyes. "Your blood tastes so sweet," she smirked.

She finally released me and got off. She stood up and smoothed out her dress. I lifted myself up with one hand while the other covered my neck. I could still feel some blood on my neck. I swung my legs off the bed and got up. Another bite mark to add to my older ones.

"May I go to the b-bathroom," I asked keeping my eyes low. 

"Yes, you may," she said. I quickly bowed my head and walked to the bathroom on the other side of the room. The bathroom looked modern and was massive. There is a glass shower along with a large porcelain bathtub. The room was painted a navy blue along with some white marble floor tiles. I walked toward the sink and looked in the mirror at the bite. There was slight swelling around it and some now dry blood. I grabbed a towel and dampened it with warm water. I wiped away the dry blood from my neck.

I stared in the mirror. My eyes are two different colors. One is dark blue and the other was a pale white. My father is a demon and my mother is an angel. I also have a speech impediment and stuttered a lot. I was often bullied because of it and also my strange looks. I wasn't supposed to exist. An angel and a demon were never meant to be together and it was considered taboo. That's why I am looked down upon.

Other than my eyes I looked normal, my hair is a auburn color and was not too long, and not too short. My hair ended at my ears with some bangs that ended above my eyes.  I have a olive skin tone but I was now much paler because of the loss of blood and also from the drugs they've been giving me.

I washed my hands and put the towel in a basket for the maid to wash. The bleeding on my neck had stopped. I may not be able to fully heal but I could still stop the bleeding on smaller wounds. I walked out of the bathroom and Azriel stood there leaning against the wall giving me a smirk. She was wearing a knee length red dress along with some red heels. "Is there a-anything else you n-need ma'am," I ask keeping my eyes to the floor. 

She walked toward me lifting my head up with her finger, making me stare into her now violet eyes. "Yes, you see tonight we will be hosting a ball party and I need you to help greet the guest with me. You must also dress formal and help the waiters serve drinks." 

"I understand," I said trying to hide the fear in my voice. Parties were very dreadful; the royal treated me like dirt and everyone looked at me with judgmental eyes. It also gave Azriel a reason to punish me if I did something wrong. Previously she punished me for not being respectful enough and slouching too much. Fortunately it was a small punishment that I could handle. This time it is a much bigger party and I know she will have my head if I make a mistake. 

She left the room and I sat on my bed. When did I become so pathetic? I am suppose to be the strongest creature in the world; but now I am enslaved by  vampires. 

Flashback

I sat on a hill top watching the sunset. My hair was no longer wet; but now damp, after some kids in my class decided it would be funny to pour a bucket of water on me. Luckily I had a change of clothes in my locker. I felt tears prick my eyes. I wasn't strong enough yet to fight them. I was suppose to start growing my wings this year like every other angel or demon on their 18th birthday. With the wings came power and strength. 

I wipe away the tears and stare at the now dark sky. My parents are probably worried about me, I should head home. I stand up and grab my bag that was still soaked with water. I walk down the hill and start heading home. As I walk through the grass I hear the sound of footsteps. I turn around and just then I'm pushed to the ground and land face first into the grass. I try getting up but am slammed back into the ground. I feel multiple people grab my arms and legs holding me down.

"Let me go!" I scream struggling to get out of there hold. I try turning my head to look at my attackers and then I feel a sharp pain in my neck. I let out a scream as the pain got worse. 

The let go of me and I quickly put my hand to my neck and sit up. There are five men standing around me all wearing black cloaks that covered their whole body and faces. My vision starts to blur and I notice one of the men holding something. I squint my eyes and see he's holding a syringe in his hand. My vision starts to go black and my body becomes weak. I try to scream once more time but it comes out as a whimper. I feel myself fall to the ground then everything goes black. 

-

I woke up in a dark cell. I heard a door open and then slam shut; then the sound of voices. Then a bright light lit up the cell and I saw a women and a man standing in front of my cell. What's happening? "This one is special, he's a hybrid from a angel and a demon." A ruff voice said. How does he know what I am. I sat in the corner of the cell afraid of what they would do to me. 

"I think I'll take him, how much?" the women asked. "Two million," the man said. 

Shortly after they left. I sat shocked in the corner. What is happening, and what does he mean by two million. This must be the black market my father always told me to watch out for. I stand up and look around the cell trying to find a way to escape; but found nothing. The door opened back up and the man came back. I stood in the corner as he unlocked my cell. I only have one chance. 

"Come here boy," He reached to grab me and I quickly punched him in the face as hard as I could. While he was disoriented I ran out of the cell; closing it behind me and locking him in. I look around and saw a door at the end of the hallway. I ran towards it and opened it. There stood three guards staring at me with questioning eyes. Two grabbed me before I was able to run while the other went to let the man out from the cell. I struggled but it was no use. I was brought to a office. The lady from before stood there, the guards still holding a tight grip on my arms. 

"I'm Azriel," she spoke in a soft voice. She had long blond hair and violet eyes. 

"I'm your new owner," she said giving me a sadistic smile.
