Everly POV "Diana?" I gasped as I sat up on the bed, my senses forcing me up even though I was still very tired. Hands pushed on my shoulders, trying to make me lay back down. "Where is she?" I asked as panic spread through me, I didn't know why I was on high alert, I just knew that something was wrong. I locked eyes with a pair of warm brown eyes. "Milo, where is my baby?" I got his hands off of me and pushed the covers back. When I stood up my legs seemed to forget how to work and turned into jelly. Milo was quick to catch me when he saw my legs give away. His strong hold on my midsection hurt and felt amazing all at once. His other hand was on my waist, I felt his fingers touch the skin below my shirt and it tingled, it felt like an electric current flowed in from his touch all the way up my spine. I nearly wept when he removed his hand and helped me back on the bed. I felt sadness wash over me when he locked eyes with me again. "Where is Michael? He said he would watch Diana for me while I slept. Make him bring me my daughter." I begged him, and I felt a tear fall from my eye. "Princess, I can't ask him because he don't have her." My stomach wanted to turn. I felt physically sick as I tried to think who may have her. "Th-The Queen, A-A-Amelia, would she have her?" I asked him, I could feel my breathing quicken. "We need to tell you something. But I need you to calm down first." I forced myself to try and relax and calm down, I knew if what he had to say was bad news then I would fall off this cliff I felt like teetering off of. I swallowed down a huge gulp and counted to five. I don't know where I learned that technique from but it worked in calming me down much faster. Milo smiled faintly, "Good girl.." He murmured. "Where is my daughter, Milo?" I asked him for what felt like the hundredth time in less than 10 minutes. I bit back a groan when I sudenly felt very itchy everywhere. "I don't know!" He whispered. He always looked directly into my eyes, he was the one who was always happy, atleast that's the only emotion he put off. Michael was always uneasy around me and I wanted so desperately to know why that was. Now Gabriel. He liked to brood. He was always worried about something or me or the baby. Perhaps I was the one who always made him worry so much. "What do you mean, you don't know? She's an infant, she can't walk out of here." I said and stood back up. If he won't tell me where she was, I would search every inch of this palace. Milo stood just as quickly as I did and grabbed my shoulders. "Sit down... you were drugged, it is why you are squinting in the direction of the window, you have a migraine, yes?" He looked down at my arms, they were red from scratching at my skin. I tried to ignore it but it feels dry and dehydrated of the natural vitamins my skin held. "And your hot. That's the effect of silver poisoning. The wolfsbane only weakened you because of Diana's DNA-" ' You still haven't told me anything.." I snapped at him. "Where the hell is she?" I asked for the last time, if he didn't answer me soon I was going to go off on him. My skin felt like there was blisters all over me, like I was being dipped in acid, or molten lava. "Step away from her, Milo!" I tightened my hands into tight fists. Amelia came over and grabbed his arm.....for some reason it pissed me off that she placed her hands on him. "Slowly back away, you seen it before in new parents. The heightened emotions are what she's feeling right now... see, she can't stand me even being this close to you." I could hear her, but I was being a little bit too territorial to stop and think right. "Lee?" My eyes flickered to the person behind Milo. He was holding his hands up, he was afraid of me. Why was he scared of me? I only want to know where my baby is, and Milo won't tell me. My eyes followed him as he cane up and stood in front of me. Something inside me ached at how he was looking at me. He cupped my cheeks, I didn't even feel the wetness on my face until be wiped his thumbs under my eyes wiping the tears away. "Why are you mad? Speak to me sissy!" I felt my anger slowly start to fade, I let out a very quiet sob as I looked away from his gaze. I placed a hand over my stomach as Ronnie, grabbed my other hand and held it securely in his. "We will find her, I promise." He whispers to me. "Uncle Henry didn't kill you when you were kidnapped. So I don't think he will hurt her." I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in the crook of his neck. "I need her back, she is the only person here that don't give me pitiful looks." I had not one person on my side here when it came to why I was feeling like such a outcast. "Please trust us, we only want to help you regain your memories. And trust that Diana will be brought home!" The certainty in his voice was heard even by the guards who stood in the room. The guard was looking straight, his posture was riddled with pride and defeat. He was the same man I'd seen only once before. I just met him today....or was it yesterday? "We will get you some clothing so you can shower. It's been 24 hours since you were brought in, you need some protein and lots of rest." I shook my head and pulled myself from his grasp. "I want to help look for her!" "Not with that poison still in your system, you need to sleep!" He gritted at me, I went to walk past him but he grabbed my hand, and I glared at him. "You aren't the boss of me, Ronnie." He growled, he was now angry too. The firstthing i noticed about him these past few weeks,is he liked control. He was sweet to everyone here, but if someone wasn't at his side when he called he woukd get really mad. So for me to not want to do something he is requesting is beginning to anger him. His eyes that pinned me to the spot looked down at my neck then back to mine, I blinked because they were green and not blue. I would have probably been scared, but something inside me wouldn't let me shy away from his gaze. "If you won't sit back down and let us help you then, I'm gonna have to use other tactics to make you listen to me." His eyes flickered over to.Milo then back to me. I heard a sinister laugh flow from my mouth, I was Royalty here too. I didn't have to listen to him. I pulled my arm from his grip and snarled when I felt the skin break under his fingernails as he tried to grab it again. I looked atthe scratch and turned away from him. Asshole got me good too. I went to face Ronnie again when I felt hands land on my shoulder. My hair was pulled away from my neck, the same tingles from before hit me when he grazed my skin. "Let me go, Milo!" I said. I could feel his breath on my cheek as he nuzzled my face with his own. "Just until she stops fighting my command!" I heard Ronnie say, he sounded like he was miles away when in reality he was just a few feet behind me. Milo rubbed his lips over a senitive area, I had to force my legs to keep me up because of the pleasure I felt at that. What the hell is going on with me tonight? "I'm sorry, Princess. But this is for your own good." Before i could reflect on his words I felt pain trickle into my neck then the electrons in my brain fried as I shivered from how cold I felt. I reached up and tried to push Milo away, my eyelids grew heavy and I wasn't understanding why I was suddenly so lethargic. "It's working, she can feel it now. Pull back, Milo!" Ronnie said, however Milo wrapped a arm around me just as I felt like i was going to fall. I heard a growl leave Milo, I could feel him sucking on the area he had bit into. I closed my heavy eyes as he slurped up my blood. Why was he doing this, it was weird yet pleasing...? "Milo, let go." Ronnie said, I felt a sudden panic hit me. I lifted up my other hand and began to push on his chest. Gosh he felt so warm, I just wanted to roll around in his cologne. But when I remembered he had me in a hold so tight that I felt like I was suffocating because of it. "I knew I should have asked Gabriel to do it!" A rumbled vibrated from Milo's chest and out of his mouth sending tingles to cover my whole body. He bit down harder, it felt like he had bit into the bone. I was quickly turned around and picked up. "You will soon thank me for that....now rest, Everly." Milo's voice spoke softly into my ear. And before I could argue with him about not wanting to sleep when my daughter was out there someplace and not with me where she belonged. I was out before I could open my mouth, the darkness a huge welcome at this moment.
