《Sway(Wattys 2015)》Dinner is served
Advertisement
This girl was a challenge, if someone breaks into your house and tells you their going to kidnap you, I'm pretty sure hitting them with a bat and then waiting to see if their okay isn't the proper way to handle things.Humans.
I don't understand why a little girl like that would be left all alone, I searched for a bag and packed the girl some clothes ,shoes and other things she might need.
I stepped over her unconscious body in attempt to get her phone luckily she hadn't phoned the police.
I threw her bag over my shoulder and went down to pick her up but stopped when I saw her neck. The smell of her blood drove me insane , just by looking at her I knew she was innocent and pure , she was beautiful. Her black curly hair reached her bum, she had beautiful pink lips, a perfect toned body, her caramel skin, she must of been mixed race and her vanilla scent made it harder for me to control.
But most of all her sapphire blue eyes, I've never seen anything like them not on a human or a vampire.
Stop it Colt ,get her and go. I picked her up and took her to the car I had parked outside.I put her in the front of the range rover so I could keep an eye on her.
The journey to the mansion was quick , before she went inside I took her to Miss Jones our human maid to make sure she was cleaned and dressed before she came in.
Sweetie pie ...wake up"
I slowly woke from the deep sleep , surprisingly I felt well rested. I looked around and there was a women in front of me holding a glass of water.
"Rogue ?...that is your name right lovely?" she sweetly asked , just nodded in response
"Well as you probably know this isn't your house, do you remember what happened?"
"Yes"
"Well, I'm Miss jones, Colt was the vampire that came to your house, he brought you here to their mansion" she said
"Their mansion?" I question, making sure to emphasise the work their.
"Yes my love, here is where the other vampire stay along with their mates and other humans"
"Are you one of-" I begin to ask
"Oh no, I'm the maid, I've been asked by Colt to get you bathed and dressed to meet the rest of the vampires"
What the hell is going on? I'm in a mansion with vampires and old maids.Ive read a lot of vampire books and they are very powerful creatures, they kill and feed of humans that must be the reason I'm here.
"Come let's get you ready, the vampires don't like to be kept waiting so get a move on love" she gave a warm smile and left me a towel, then left.

I got the towel and made my way to the shower, in the shower I shaved? washed my hair and body then got out. I was too afraid to stay in there any longer then I needed to.
When I came back there was an outfit laid out for me :a cream pencil skirt, matching top and sandal strap heels. This is something I would never wear but once again I was to frightened to say anything, so I just put them on. I left my hair down and sat on a chair waiting for someone to get me.
You would of thought being kidnapped an all you would try and run, i didn't know my way around and I was certain if the vampires didn't kill me then something out there would.
"Rogue?" I quickly stood up and spun round to see a girl no older then me. She had blonde hair blue eyes and freckles.She was wearing a black pantsuit with heels
"I'm Nicole, I'm a human like you I was brought here by another vampire Cyrus, I was told by Miss Jones to escort you to the mansion"
I nodded my head and followed her along the marble path, we talked a bit our selfs, she two lived on her own ,we were both 17 and like me she was terrified.
"What do you think they want?" she asked
"I don't know , let's just go in there and do what we're told , I don't want to die today , do you ?" She rapidly shook her head , which made me smile.I like this girl .
We were stood outside two huge wooden doors, these doors were the only thing separating me from the vampires In there so I was very reluctant to ring the bell.So we both just stood there ,when I was about to speak the two doors separated and we were lured in.
It was beautiful, there were paintings and chandeliers, two grand staircases either side of room.I looked over to Nicole and she had the exact same expression as me.
"Rogue?....Nicole we're waiting" I looked over to Nicole and gave her a reassuring smile as we begin to walk in.She took the lead to my surprise she walked with confidence, sticking out her bum and flicking her hair.
"Follow me, if they like us then they won't kill us" she encouraged
I don't know what she was doing but all I know is I'm not doing it .I kept my distance walking less confident and slower.
Wow. There was a room filled with vampires , they were all beautiful , this only made things worse i was now terrified and flustered.
All of a studded every single person turned round to me, every pair of eyes scanned me up and down. I began to feel uncomfortable.My eyes connected with Nicole's as she signalled for me to introduce myself.

"Errrr hello, I'm Rogue" I looked back at Nicole who was bowing her head,I narrowed my eyes at her unaware of what she wanted me to do, then she did it again and so did I .
I quickly scurried over to Nicole who was talking to some vampire girls.
"Excuse me, dinner is served your majesty's " a man announced
"You're very beautiful by the way, I'm tasha" a red haired vampire girl said
"Why are we here?" Nicole asked
"Depends, you can be a vampires mate, a maid, a slave or a meal ...come on dinners served lets go" she warns
What!
I followed the rest of the vampires trying not to make eye contact with any of them. We were all seated, some vampires were sat next to girls , but some were seated with us, some were taken off by vampires.
The chatter died down when someone entered the room
"Your leader , Mr Stone " he confidently called out
I couldn't see him at the start , but my heart stopped when I saw him. He wasn't like the other vampires he was much more beautiful, jade green eyes, brown slicked back hair, incredible jaw line, he was built like a Greek god, the smell of his cologne filled the air and his smile was to die for. I clearly wasn't the only one who felt like this as I looked around all the women were flustered, cheeks were red, lips were bitten we were all thinking the same thing. I Swear I knew him
"Hello everyone, thank you for being here today, I see we have a few new faces at the table, i hope they are made to feel welcome....that's all."
His voice , I know I've heard it but where?
Dinner was served,as soon as the voices grew so did the women's excitement about Mr Stone.
"He could have any girl he wants, I wish it was me!" a girl screamed
"Who is he I asked ?"
"He's the most powerful vampire in the world , his mother and father were some of the first vampires , and when they had him he was gifted with powers."said Tasha
"Apparently he's only been with a handful of girls and all of them have said they would give there life for one more night with him"another girl vampire said
All the girls were giggling and staring at him , he clearly knew because every once in a while he would flash them a smile or wink at them.Sending loud screeches through the room.
Starter and main course was served there was only dessert left. Me,Tasha and Nicole had been asked to help serve the dessert because there was an accident in the kitchen. I wasn't surprised one of the vampires did say we could end up a maid.
We were given two plates each and was told to give them out to the male guests.There were only a few vampires left and they were at the far end where the important vampires were and where the most powerful vampire were sat .
As I walked over the vampires looked at me with hungry eyes, I was trying to hard concentrate at the time to care so I continued doing my job. We finally reached the end of the table, both girls looked over to me ,they were both looking for reassurance but so was I.
"What do we do?" I whispered to the girls
They both shrugged.Tasha was growing impatient and decided to get it over and done with, she walked up to one of the head vampires and placed the food in front of him , when he looked at her she nodded her head and curtsied .
Come on rogue,I placed a plate in front of another vampire and copied Tasha,it's not that hard.I waited for Nicole to finish so we could walk back together.
As we were about to sit down the chef called me over ,to give the last plate out."why is it on a gold plate?"
"It's for Mr Stone, quick before he gets angry."
"What do I do?" I ask
"Walk up to him? place the plate in front of him, curtsy then leave ok, now go " he rushed whilst pushing me out of the kitchen.
When I entered the dining room, for the second time everyone had their eyes on me as I walked towards Mr Stone.I kept my focus on the plate the whole time.
Don't drop it, be brave, almost there, be polite.I repeat to myself.
I finally reach the end of the table thankfully he's having a conversation with his friends, I'm sure of them was colt the vampire that brought me here.
"Your dessert, your majesty"I put the plate down and curtsied.
"Thank you"he revealed his perfect white teeth. Stop you're staring Rogue. I nodded my head then turned around ready to leave. I began to quick walk back to my seat ,before I could reach there is heard someone call after me .
"Come back beautiful , where's my dessert "

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
