I walked through the street "I don't know Yuki, I feel like this was a bad idea." "What?" Yuki replied. "Walking home on a dark street at night. It's like a horror movie cliche." She laughed "Oh Kai you have a wild imagination. but if your worried do you want me to pick you up?" "I'm good. I'm five minutes away from my apartment." "Kai, your always working." "I have to pay rent, taxes and Mom's hospital bills." I saw a man walking briskly towards me. "Yuki I have to go." "Ok! Stay safe!" I hung up. The man saw me and started running. I backed up, he slammed me against the lamp post. He put his hand over my mouth and dragged me to a limo. I screamed as he locked the door. He drove off, he stopped and unlocked the door but before I could jump out a man slid in next to me. He grabbed my wrists and tied them. I started to cry "Please...let me go...." The man slapped me and said "Shut up or I'll muzzle you." I stopped talking. They pulled up to a mansion and the man next to me put a collar on me and clipped on a leash. The man got out of the car and pulled on the leash to get me out. I followed them into the mansion. They walked to a man by the stairs and said "We found a new maid for the lord. For a fee." The man nodded and pointed up. They pulled me up the stairs and to two red double doors. The man holding the leash knocked twice. A male voice from inside said "come in". The man told the other one "George stay out here. You know Vampires. Nasty." George let go of the leash and the man grabbed the leash and pulled out a belt. He whipped me with it over and over again till I bled. After blood stained the white shirt I was wearing He pulled me inside. A tall man with black hair, pale skin and bright red eyes sat at a desk. The man holding the leash said "Lord Blade, we have a beautiful young woman. She is 21. Is that a new maid I see?" Lord Blade took a good look at my face "Why is there blood on her shirt?" the man looked uncomfortable. Lord Blade stood up "Why is there blood on her shirt?" he asked a hint of anger in his voice. I flinched as the man pulled sharply on the leash. Lord Blade said "I'll cut you a deal. You leave the girl here with me and I won't kill you." The man said "You need to pay me for her!" I decided that dealing with a muzzle was not that bad so I said "I am not for sale!" Lord Blade turned to me "what is your name?" "I'm Kai." Lord Blade walked towards me and took my hand. The man grabbed the belt and said "do you want another whipping punk!?" that's when Lord Blade snapped and lunged at the man. He drew his hand away and blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. I gasped and stumbled backwards. He looked at me "sorry about that. I'll send Eva to get your uniform." "u-uniform?" he nodded "You start tomorrow."
