The Monster's Rose

Rose POV

"We are going to live in our castle." the man beside me whispered as I glanced at the castle which he is talking about.

"But why? I don't want any castle. We can live here."

"Ssh...I know you are scared of my people. I want to live in that castle because that is our home love, I want to begin our new life there."

"I'm not scared of your people," I said pouting a little. He let out a laugh which calmed my insides. He doesn't laugh or smile but when he does that is my favourite thing to see. I wrapped my arms around his torso leaning my head against his thick coat. He tucked my head under his chin, caressing my back.

"Not even a single soul would enter our home. I won't let anything enter there. No one will separate us."

"I love you," I murmured against his coat. I felt him kiss my hair.

"I love you." He replied tucking me closer to him. I know no harm will be coming to us. He will protect me forever, we aren't going to separate.

"Kasma Parde!"(wake up b***h) cold water hit my face making me jump in fear. I tried to pull my arm but I couldn't, something is tied around it. I opened my eyes with fear, I looked at the different ugly and scary looking creature who is gazing at me with utmost hatred in his eyes. 

A cold shiver ran throughout my body when the other two creatures walked to where I'm. Their dressing is different, their nails are black and sharp. I can't understand their language. I never heard this language.

"Tha kasmo bhiya?"(Isn't she waking up?) one of them asked. I looked at the in fear, they were about to kill me when I blacked out. I don't know the reason behind their attack or why they wanted to kill me.

"She woke up now." They switched their language to English now.

"What we are going to do with her?"

"We need to wait for the third in command. He will be here anytime soon."

"Why didn't we kill her the minute we caught her like other bastards." The second one growled looking at me. My whole body trembled in fear as they spoke.

"This b***h here is the daughter of the Alpha King bastard. We caged her to kill the whole Royal family. They are going to use her as a tool." the first one answered. 

My eyes widen as tears started falling down my cheeks. I don't know who these creatures are, why they are killing our race people. Why they want to kill my family, why they are using a scurrilous and vulgar tone. 

Those three creatures left the small chamber. I sobbed looking at the chamber, it is very cold here. The floor is hard and there is no sign of sun or light. My hands and legs are tied with iron chains, My whole body is hurt. The jeans I wore earlier is torn and bloodstains have covered the jeans.

There are deep cuts on my stomach which is hurting painfully, I don't know how bad my face is. I can feel the pain in my upper jaw and nose. I felt something wet on my forehead which means they hit me.

I don't remember how I ended up in their hands and here, I want to see my family. I don't want them to kill my family. I sobbed hard as I recollected their words. They are going to use me as a tool to reach my family and end them.

I was in my art room trying to paint when I heard a commotion in the castle I rushed out of the room to see. Then something hit my head making me go blank. I remember the dream where I saw the couple again. Why am I dreaming about them? They were talking about something.

*

I don't know how many hours have passed or days, I have been here for so long. I can't determine if it is a day or night. There is no window in this chamber. It's as cold as the people here. 

They gave me little food every day which consists of hard bread and some soup which isn't warm. When I have to use the washroom, they tie a cloth around my eyes and drag me to the smelly washroom somewhere.

There is a guard who sits outside my chamber, I can't escape this place, there is a small door that allows one person at a time to move out. There is always two or three guards in front of my chamber. 

I can't see them as the door is closed all the time. I assume there are three guards because of their voices. I can't understand what they are talking about as they use their language which is very foreign to me.

My clothes are dirty, I didn't wash for days now. My hair started to smell but I don't feel anything. The blood on my skin dried a long time ago, I never met their third in command. I pray to the moon goddess every day to protect my family. 

I want them to save me, I don't want my race to end. I pray to the power who is looking over us from above to protect and save us.

I don't even cry anymore as there is no tears left. The guards are very cruel. They beat me for no reason, they use abusive words, they rant something in their language in an aggressive manner which scares me. When they get aggressive they hit my feeble body.

The small door of the chamber opened startling me, a knot formed in my throat as I don't want to see any of them.

"Stand up bitch." The guard growled at me. The way they speak English is very foreign to me as their accent is very thick. My limps protested as I stood up with heavy chains around my wrists. A man entered the small chamber, he couldn't fit in the small chamber as he is tall. His head is bend when he finally entered the chamber.

"Move her to the western ghats," the man announced, I shivered as he looked deadly. I don't think I would be habituated to them. I didn't understand what he meant by western ghats. Are they going to shift me to another place?

The man eyed me intensely making me gaze at the ground, I don't want to look at their faces or hands. He shuffled out of the chamber while the guard pushed me out roughly making me moan in pain.

I followed the man from before as we passed by the guards who were standing bowed their heads. This is the first time that I'm seeing everyone, my hands started trembling as I looked at the creatures whom I never thought existed. We walked down the small narrow path to outside. I closed my eyes the sunlight hit my skin.

I breathed out as I observed everything around me, there was endless greenery in front of me. I can't describe or remember this place. I don't have an idea of where I'm. This isn't the place I know, I'm very far away from my home.

"Move," the guard shouted. It's hard to walk barefoot because of the small rocks under my feet. My gaze shifted to the creaturs who are glaring at me with so much hatred in their eyes. What's their problem?

"Get into that," the man from before said not even looking at me. Good thing.

I looked at the horse carriage which took me by surprise as the carriage is so old that I believed there aren't any carriages like that in this generation. Not wanting to anger them I hopped into the carriage along with two guards. 

Other's were on their horses, the carriage started moving. I am scared to ask them questions. The chains around my wrists are starting to get hurt. I rested them in my lap.
