Chapter ll
Damin and I made our way to the dinning hall after he got me cleaned up. Damin kept his arm around my waist to make sure I wont fall. I had been shoved into a random blue dress but luckily it was one of my favourites.
It left most of my markings visibile which kind of bothered me but I chose to ignore it. I started getting nervous and I stopped in my path. The air in the hall started to swirl around me and Damin and I fell against his side. The lights started to flicker but as soon as it happened it stopped. I closed my eyes and steadied my breathing. The markings on my arms burned slightly as the three mysterious words were whispered around me.
'U no le..." I have no idea what it meant.. it kind of scared me. Damins concerned sounding voice brought me back to reality.
"Alice? What just happened?" He asked me. I didnt even know my self what just happened.
"I..I dont know" I took a deep breath in smelling the food that was waiting for me beyond the large wooden doors just feet infront of me. My stomach grumbled and I sighed. I looked up at Damin with my signature puppy eye look which I knew for a fact he could not resist. He chuckled and started walking towards the door which he half dragged me towards.
Instead of walking with him the rest of the way I speed walked ahead of him eager to eat. I bursted through the doors and quickly made my way to the large throne like chair at the head of the large table.
Harmony smiled at me and I smiled back. I was happy to see my half sister. Her half pointed ears were slightly red and I raised my blue tinted brow at her. She made a coughing sound and eyed my glass. I looked down at it and saw a piece of paper under it. I picked up the glass and secretly slid the paper onto my lap.
I glanced to my left where Eclipse was standing. His orange eye glowed slightly which made me feel uneasy. I sighed and took a drink from my glass. Sweet Berry wine! When I swallowed I noticed it left a weird aftertaste. I frowned and took another sip when I noticed the color of the wine had a orange tint to it. I quickly spat out the wine I had out of my mouth and shot out of my chair only to fall to the floor clutching my stomach.
"The wine is poisoned with Exon Flower powder!"
I managed to get the sentence out before the poison knocked me out.
-------------
