Princess Gizelle by Wicked Mist (most read books in the world of all time TXT) 📖

you thinking Gizelle?" Savan placed her on the bench, just in case she tried it again. She layed there, in a deep sleep. She begin dreaming about Savan chasing her threw the woods. It was like an endless run for her life. She wore an all white, stringy dress with long sleeves. She kept turning around to see if he was gaining on her, but she no longer saw him. She stopped and once she turned back around, he charged her. She suddenly woke up, morning shining bright. The sun was in her eyes and the birds were chirping. She wondered how she got down there. She didn't even remember falling. It was almost as if she was drunk. Something possessed her to fall, but what was it? She climbed back up the vine and put her some clothes. She then made her way to the dining room. Her mother awaited her. "What took you so long?" "I did have a late night, as I recall, you were there." "No need to bring this back up, your father and I both are in dis belief of those events." "I tried warning you, but both of you ignored my pleads." "Please don't bring this up around your father, he's having a hard time dealing with all of this." "What about me mother?" "Shh child, your father enters the room. Morning dear." "Morning." "Father, I take it that you just got back from placing your prince in the dungeon, surely you had a long talk with him." "I'm not going to entertain you." "I'm not asking for your observance, I'm asking you for a little bit of your time." "I have too much to do." "I was attacked last night, more than once." "So, he's done this before?" "Would you two stop it, this instant! We have a masquerade to attend tonight and we all are going!" Gizelle suddenlly began to see herself running. In an all white dress. At first it seemed as if she was running away from her wedding, but then it became clear to her. The wood grew dark and the moon rose to the center of the sky. She stopped and looked behind her. Nothing was there. When she turned around, Savan stood with his fangs ready for the kill. He charged her. (Gizelle Screamed) "That's it, I will not stand for this!" "Louis, where are you going?! Louis! Look what you have done! Why are you doing this?" "I didn't do it on purpose, I swear." (Nura got up and grabbed her) "You will not torment your father no longer." "I'm sorry mother, I will not do such thing again." "No, you won't, but you will sit here and wait for the tailor to arrive. You will choose your dress and attend the ball. We are to have none of this nonsense either!" "Yes mam." (A knock at the door) "Samuel, get the door." "Yes madam. Ahh, you must be the tailor." "Yes I am, may I speak with the queen & the princess." "Yes, right this way. My queen, the talior has arrived." "Good, you may assist my daughter first. I need to go handle some royal duties." "Yes mam. What colors do you like princess?" (She asked as she took her measurements) "Laveneder and lilac are my favorite types of purple, but show me what types you have." "Okay princess." (When she turned back around) Her eyes were bloodshot red, her nails were sharp and her fangs popped out. (Gizelle got up and screamed) "What is the meaning of this?!" "I don't know what happened my queen. I got some fabric out and she began to scream as if she were frightened." "Sorry about that, wait here for a moment. And you!" (Nura began to pull her to her room) "Mother, I'm sorry!" "No more of this. I've given you a chance to redeem yourself and you blatantly failed!" "I'm still in shock mother!" "Charles told me about the encounter you had." "He did?" "The one outside the theatre." "Oh." "Oh, indeed. You better not be getting any ideas, because if you do, you may join Charles in the dungeon!" "You wouldn't!" "Try me child, I've got the nerve to do so." (Nura threw her on the bed) "You are to stay in your room until the masquerade is over." "You can't leave me in here, its not safe!" "Charles is in the dungeon child." "Its not Charles." "What is it then?" "Its..." "Out with it, I haven't got all day!" "Vampires." "What did you say." (Nura quickly grabbed Gizelle and begin shaking her) "Are you mad child! What would drive you to say such things!" "Its true mother, its true!" (Nura slapped her) "Ahh." (Gizelle fell to the bed) "You know what your fathers been through and you still choose to torment him with something so dark." "I'm not trying to hurt him mother, I assure you I am not." "Don't ever speak of this again, or I will not hesitate to send you away." "Where, mother?" "You won't have to worry, if you don't push me that far." (She slammed the door) "Mother please!" (Gizelle banged on the door) It was no use. She sat on her bed and watched the window. She begin to here horses and people. She went to the balcony and looked out. The people begin to arrive. (She sighed) "Wheres Gizelle?" "She won't be making it." "Why not, is she refusing to go?" "No, Louis, I don't think shes stable enough right now." "Nura, how can we attend something, without our future queen with us?" "Easy, watch us." (Louis looked in disbelief) The servant Ramona went into Gizelle's room to place food. "Ramona, please." "I'm sorry princess, but the queen specifically said, do not let you out." "You have to let me out of this room, my life may depend on it." "Sorry princess, the queen said if I helped you, she would have my head." "I wouldn't let her do that to you. I'd give you extra money to help your family, please let me out." (She pour tokens into Ramona's hand) "Okay, but please don't let the queen spot you." "I won't and I promise if I do, you will not be the blame." (She pinned her hair up and grabbed a mask) She made her way downstairs, trying to watch out for her parents. They were sitting in their chairs on the balcony, watching. Gizelle walked around, trying to keep a low profile. As she walked around, people began to stair at her. One by one as she passed, they turned around, looking as if they knew who she was. Everyone's fangs popped out. Reality had lost it's battle against illusion. She could no longer tell, what was real anymore. (She began to run threw the crowd, pushing some out the way) They seemed to be forming a circle around her. "Who is that running?" "I don't know my lady?" "I think I should go check on Gizelle." "Nura please, we can't just leave our guests like this." "She's our daughter, to hell with the guests!" (Nura was about to go look in Gizelle's room when she looked down to find Gizelle on the floor.) "Oh God." "What is it?" "She's down there!" (Nura ran downstairs) Gizelle had bumped into a man and fell down. She dropped her mask before she fell. Gizelle watched as the man's mask hit the floor. When she looked up, she found Savan standing there. (She fainted) "Someone get some ice for the princess!" When she regained her consciousness, everyone was looking at her. Her mother pulled her up and dragged her back to her room. "I can't believe you did this, I'm outraged!" "But mother..." "But mother, nothing. Ramona, get in here now!" "Mother, she had nothing to do with this!" "You're not an escape artist dear." "Yes, my queen." "Did you let her out?" (Ramona stood quietly) "Did you or did you not Ramona? The longer you make me wait, the worse your punishment will be." "Yes, I did madam." "Mother, I tried to make her let me out, but she wouldn't, so I ran out. She couldn't catch me in time." "Is this true Ramona?" (Ramona gave a blank stare) "No, it is not, my queen." "Ramona!" "Hush child. For your honesty, you will not be punished, but if this were to happen the next time, you will be beheaded. Am I clear?" "Yes, my queen." "Now get back to work. As for you, we both are greatly disappointed and we may reconsider your position as queen also, but that would be just what you want. Tomorrow, we will began looking for your new prince charming, get your rest dear, as you will be joining us." (Door slams. Gizelle sighs) She got up and walked to the balcony. "Savan, why are you tormenting me?" "I am not, I just had to see you." (He hung on to the balcony) "You were really here! Are you mad man, you could've been executed." "I'd risk my neck for you." "I told you we will never be. Plus, I've been through hell, having nightmares and now illusions. Am I going crazy?" "You're not. After seeing something like that, anyone would still be in shock. Especially if you didn't believe what you saw." "How do you know what I believe in?" "Before you met me, I'm sure it was just a tale to you." "Maybe it was." "I'm not like the others, I don't want to kill innocent people." "Am I suppose to have sympathy for you?" "I'm not asking for your sympathy, I'm asking for your forgiveness. I'm sorry for scaring you, but other than that, I've done nothing wrong." "Why didn't you tell me?" "I couldn't, because you'd react the way you did." "I would've taken it better if I would've known what you are." "I'm sorry for causing so much trouble, but something about you, drives us wild. I don't mean humans in general, I mean you." "That makes everything better." "Come with me." "Why would I do such a thing?" "Just come with me please, I'll keep you safe, I promise." (Gizelle took a brief gaze into Savan's moonlit eyes) "Fine, but you'd better bring me back." "I will and it won't take long." (Gizelle grabbed on to Savan as he held her in his arms) She placed her head on his sholders and closed her eyes. She began to feel the wind flow threw her dress. When she turned around, they were in the air. "Oh my God!" "Shh, calm down, I won't let you go." "Please Savan, don't let me fall." "I promise I won't. Don't be afraid to look." She gazed through the night sky. Stars bright and the moon shining. "I've never known the night to be so beautiful." "I'm use to seeing the night." (He lowered down, near a small waterfall) "Wow, I didn't know Lithoark had a waterfall." "I guess they never followed the stream to see what it led to." "Why are you so nice, your friend Ingrum?" "I've never found a reason why we needed to harm the humans and Ingrums is not my friend." "You need our blood." "We don't need your blood, we can drink animals blood too. Only when they found out how much more satisfying and desirable it was, vampires became deranged hunters of humans. Unfortunetly, not all of us are like them. We suffer the consequences of their actions." "Sorry for putting you in that category." "Its okay, its not like we can make peace with them in the first place." "Its possible. Only if you could convince the others to stop killing humans." "That'll never happen." "I'd be a hypocrite if I criticised you about killing animals, because we're also hunters too." "At least they die for a reason, my people just kill for the pleasure." (Gizelle walked up to Savan and
