Ryan 

Benjamin came in a few minutes after i sent him to give Isabella her meds and food. She will need it later to face her punishment. I was only gone for some hours and she tried to escape. She should have known better. I purposely left her without any guards and the gate open so that i could see if she would escape and she just have to show her true color didn't she?

"I think she would be asleep by now" Benjamin confronted.

"She should be, she's gonna need energy to face her punishment"

"Is it really compulsory to do that to her? No human has faced that kind of harshness before. Some even died" He tried to talk me out. But i just growled.

"That's the point! If she dies or not, i don't give a damn! She should have known better when she tried to escape from me, Ben!"

"I know you don't want to do this! It's just fake and you can never do that to her! She may die!" he shouted.

I knew he was right. No one has ever gone to that place before and came back alive. 

"Whatever. I'm gonna see her." I said and left the room.

She was fiddling with her fingers when i came in. She seemed so relaxed and calm, but not for long. She didn't seem to notice me until i came in her view. She only gasped but smiled..

What the hell? Why is she smiling!

"Hey Ryan!" She waved. 

Now she's waving! What next, Hugging? She better not!

"You know why am i here, don't you?" I asked. 

Enough Drama!

Her smile dropped and she started crying making me smirk. 

"I'm really sorry Ryan. I just needed to go and be free from you. I miss my family but now,they are gone" She sobbed.

Rolling my eyes, i started dragging her out of the room, downstairs. "Where are you taking me?"

Isabella P.O.V

"Where are you taking me?' I asked afraid of what he's gonna do to me. "Please, i'm so sorry" I kept begging trying to change his mind from what he's gonna do to me. I finally stopped crying and decided to see what exactly he's planning. He dragged me outside and led me to the car. 

Was he taking me out or something?

"Get in!" He growled and i entered the front passenger seat immediately. Outside was really cold but he didn't seem to mind. In fact, he even rolled the mirror downwards more. I started shivering but he didn't care and he started the engine.

The drive was very fast that at some point, i may throw up. The car finally stopped and i got out so did he. The place was in the woods with a small cottage behind it.The cottage was tall though, like in the haunted  movies. Trees were not that tall like the one i tried to escape from. It was beautiful really. 

"Go into that cottage!' He demanded. My eyes wide opened from what he said. He wants me to go into that creepy thing, alone? "I'm not going into that.It looks haunted and it's so dark." I complained. "Go into that now Isabella" He said through gritted teeth.

"No!" I screamed. Before i know it, i was being dragged again into the creepy house. 'Please Ryan don't make me go in!" I kept screaming but he didn't even budge. He burst open the door and i gasped at what i saw. 

Intestines from animals and human was hung on the wall. Was he planning of removing mine too? "Ryan, what are this?" I asked covering my nose from the smell. He looked so relaxed like the smell was nothing or here was perfect. Feared griped inside of me.

"Are you blind? Animal and humans intestines" He said and i gulp.

"Sit!" He said gesturing me to the small stool in the middle of the cottage. I brought out a tissue from my pocket and cleaned the surface of the stool before sitting on it. 

You may never know what was stained on the surface. I looked at him wide open before leaving me and going into one of the small rooms inside. Hours passed and he wasn't coming out. 

Did he leave or what? 

"Ryan?? I asked shaking from the cold. A few hours ago, it wasn't cold and now it is. What is happening here? "Please come out. You're making me scared" I said using my hands to cover my body from the cold. My eyes was going around.I was trying to look for the room he passed through but all the rooms and door looked alike. My eyes drifted to a figure near a door. He looked short like a dwarf . I knew that wasn't Ryan. Ryan was tall but this..Was something else. He only stood in the dark looking forward in front of him which was me.

"Wh-o are y-ou?" I shuttered. 

"Hmmm, Are you that really curious to know me or to know who brought you here" He asked.His voice was soft and his appearance was so small you could mistake him for a small child. 

"What do you mean and what is here?" I asked now curious of what his talking about.

"Who brought you here?"

"Ryan Collins" 

"Wow! Ryan?? Is that his name? I'm not sure" He said coming from the dark more and near.

I don't understand what he's talking about. I just want to get away from here and from this mysterious person. Ryan? Where is he?

"That's his name."I said shivering more. My teeth was now chattering but the figure in front of me seemed fine.

"Tap you palm 3 times" He mentioned.

I looked at him in confusion. Tap my palm 3 times? What's that, a magic trick?

I tapped my palm 3 times and the cold vanished. I widen my eyes at him. 

"The guy you call Ryan is not his real name. His name is Xavier and he has a brother called Adrian. He is 17 years old in the human world and 40,000 years old in the demon world. His friends, Ethan, Benjamin, Noah, Charles, Harry are demon like him. They are soft and nice but his the bad and dangerous one. His wicked-" He paused.

What is this guy talking about? Demon? Xavier? Years and sort of rubbish. I don't get his point here. But what's strange is how he knows the boys. Ryan never told me about this guys before. Oh- He never tells me anything. 

"I don't understand you" I stated.

He sighed before proceeding to talk.

"Ryan is a demon and will be the king of the demon world if he finds his mate in the next 3 months" He explained.

"Demon world? Ryan's a devil? I asked shock and startled.

"Have you ever noticed something about his eating habit. Or the color of his wine?

Flash Back

After crying that night, i decided to go eat dinner with the boys. I rushed down the stairs and went to the dinning table. The maids appeared with different variety of foods and drink.

"What's you fav wine?Ethan asked.

"I'll take that please" I said pointing to small red glass cup in front of me.

"That's for Ryan, you can't take it" Noah said and i nodded.

What's that anyway?

End of flashback

"Yeah, his wine is always so red. It doesn't even look like wine but like-"

"Blood"He added.

"Blood? He drinks blood?" I asked again.

"Yeah, he drinks blood but his friends doesn't. They drink wine like you humans.

"Aren't you human too?" I asked.

"I am not. I'm an elf. He said.

My eyes wide open. I never thought elf existed. Does vampire too?

"Yes they do exist" He conceded.

"You can read mind?" I asked.

"Yes, Xavier too" 

"Who's Xavier?" I asked.

"Ryan, dummy" 

I chuckled.
