CHAPTER SIX : STRANGE PLACE

 I woke up in a strange place, all my body was in severe pains. I looked around where I was, wait! I was in a room.

    I sat up on the bed which was very big and wide, the ceiling was very high too. Talk more of the huge door which was almost reaching the ceiling but it has two handles. One up and one down what for?.

  "Where am I?" I said out loud. "How will I get down from this high bed? Wait where's Elia?". Now I realised I wasn't in the slaves prison anymore.

  All my memories before I passed out came flooding back to my head. I remembered Lennon's head fell of his neck ane his blood splashed on my body, but I couldn't see who was behind him.

    I need to get out of here, I need to find Elia " hello is anyone here" I called out. My throat felt sour, Gosh I need to drink water. At the same time my stomach growled angrily. Aish! I'm so hungry .

  I remembered I haven't eaten anything it even taste water for the pass three days wait! How long have I been out? It's a miracle I'm still alive.

    Well that's not a problem now, though I feel weak and tired , I couldn't even get out of the bed or stand on my own, my eyes felt dizzy, I need to find Elia as soon as possible.

    Suddenly the huge door opened and a girl came in, but how? How did she come in that huge door? I said in my head. How did she open the door. Oh I forgot the door has two handles what for anyway?.

    "Miss you're awake" the girl said to me. I noticed she covered her lower face with a net and there was a marking on her neck. Her dressing was weird .

    "Where am I ?, What place is this?, Where's Elia?, How did I get here? " I bombarded the girl with questions.

   " Calm down Miss, my name is Venetia , I'll answer all your questions. But first you need to eat first" Venetia said.

  " Calm down? Like seriously? How can I calm down when I don't know where I am or if Elia is safe or not" I shouted at Venetia and then I started coughing. Venetia brought me a glass of water which I drank in one go and another glass of water.

   I felt better a little now. "Are you okay miss?" Venetia asked me with worry in her eyes. I nodded.

 "Now answer my questions, how long I've I been out?.   "Three days miss" Venetia answered.

   "Three days???" I said and Venetia nodded. Three days plus the three days I spent with Elia in the punishment room that's six days "oh my God I must be dreaming" I said as I became dizzy again.

   " Miss you need to eat if you want me to answer your questions" Venetia said to me ' this girl gat some nerves though ' I said in my head. I nodded for her her to bring me my food.

   Venetia brought me my food, when I opened the plate, the food I saw wasn't the type I usually eat. Like seriously what is this place and who are these people with thier weird clothes and weird building they call house.

   Venetia noticed I was staring at the food strangely. " The food is calling pawn veggies miss, try it, it's delicious". I stared at her before putting one spoon in my mouth " Hmmm it's really good" I Said but not without Elia I frowned again.

    After I'm done eating my food and Venetia cleared the plates. I asked all a lot of questions and she answered everything but I was still confused.

  Now I have a little strength in me though still in pains. I jumped down from the bed as I walked towards the window which was tall too, to have a better view of the city. What was it called again?.

   "What's the name of the city again " I asked Venetia who stood by my side. I was a little taller than her. " Naal city miss" she answered.

   "Would you please stop calling me miss. My name is Aria" I Said to Venetia whereas I wasn't born with " miss " as my name.

    "I'm sorry Miss Aria" she said and I rolled my eyes. My eyes caught a beautiful garden, it has many beautiful flowers with different kinds colours. Morning glory, sunflowers, roses, lilies. It was so beautiful and tall I could get lost in it.

  "Why are everything big and tall here?" I asked " I mean how will you water the garden".

  " Miss Aria , there are many things you don't know yet about Naal city. There are only few humans here, the man owners are giants shapeshifters. That's why everything is so tall". Venetia said.

  " Giants shapeshifters" I scoffed ", those are only real in stories " I said as I turned to look at the garden back. " No, they are real miss Aria" Venetia said.

  "So why can't I see any of them" I said sturbbornly.

  " It's because Master brought you to his personal room. No one dares come in here apart from me and sir Magnus master's friend". Venetia answered.

  I stared at her for a while " ok ok I get it I must still be dreaming" I held both sides of my head trying to wake myself up. When the huge door opened again and I saw the most beautiful man I have ever seen.

    But that's not the most shocking part, the most shocking part was that. The man was twice as taller than I am. A giant as Venetia said now I believed her. His blue beautiful eyes locked with mine and there was a smile on his handsome face.
