All Chapters of Lake Creek: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

 Dizziness assailed her. A fowl smell was let loose and it weighed heavily on her senses. She fought the urge to just lay there, and drew her eyes open. Familiarity... The familiarity of the room hit her and greeted her, even as she lay on floor. Why... Why would he bring her here? Her heart began to race as a certain dark feeling coiled within her. Bracing herself, she rolled over and was trying to stagger into a standing position when under the bed, she saw a small piece of something. It held the smell that coated the room. Pulling herself up, she saw little pieces of it everywhere. It was everywhere. She knew this place.... She had been here before! No.... No... Ignoring the thickness of blood on the floor, she began to walk towards the bed. She walked, begging for it not to be so. She took unsteady step after unsteady step, feeling the shake of her shoulders. Upon reaching the top of the bed, she saw brown hair. Gripping the sheets, she yanked them off and froze. On the bed

"I... I don't know what to say.... Is that why Andreas... Disliked you?"Anna chuckled, "Don't butter it up, he hated me. He hated me so much. Heartbreak killed his mom, selfishness corrupted his dad and the only other man who showed him love? The venom of a vampire took him. For a long time, he thought I was still angry about being banished by my brother, I decided to punish his son.""I see he likes you now.""Yes. Only when he was bitten by a vampire did he finally realize that for you, the child prophesied about, to be the one to heal him, more so with the stone, there really was no other cure. Seeing how you basically died after that, he accepted it. That's the only reason he let me watch over you. Takes him to die to realize something? You have a real boulder on your hands." Anna joked.Eleanor was still reeling from it."I feel very bad for him, though." Anna suddenly said."Why?""All those years of hate... At the end, he found that all the

Andreas awoke the next morning to a weight across his back and something going through his hair. Casting his eyes downward, he saw a folded thigh. Sighing, he flipped over to find Eleanor, fingers deep in his hair, sitting astride him."What are you doing?" His rough morning voice coming through."Checking for bald spots," she said in a small voice, raising a hand to her cheek and looking away. Her guilt confused him. "Yesterday, when I... Uh... Gr..grabbed your-" she pointed, "-your hair..." and trailed off."Did you find any?"Her eyes rose to his, "Hm?""Bald spots, did you find any?"She hurriedly shook her head. "None. I'm sorry."Her humble look came across as very cute to him. It was rather endearing with her in her cartooned nightie.He watched her as she watched him. They both observed each other, thinking things about one another. Giving into temptation, Eleanor rose a hand and threw him a rather wary look as she moved it toward his

Noticing almost immediately that Eleanor was nowhere to be found, Andreas decided to give it a few more minutes before stepping out. Instantly knowing where to go, he walked a few feet into the forest and stopped at a large oak tree. Looking up, he caught a glimpse of her, sat on one of it's large branches with her back pressed against the large trunk. "You didn't eat anything."He saw her wrap her arms around her legs before she responded with, "I'm not hungry," not sparing him a glance.With a sigh, he said, "You'll give yourself an ulcer."With a low voice, he heard her say "I'll rather I have an ulcer than be left, lonely."Feeling bad but needing her to understand, he let out a breath."Bella-""What do you want, Andreas?" She asked, looking down at him with sad eyes. Inwardly cursing, he began to climb. Eleanor watched as he situated himself a few inches before her, then turned her head the other way."I seem not to be

While Eleanor ran from one side of the room in an excited bid to find out just how different everything was from what she was used to, Andreas went to take a bath.He was just emerging out of the bathroom all wet and dripping when a strange sound swas heard. Eleanor watched as he walked straight to the door, pulled it open, and spoke english to someone."Thank you.""It's nice to have you here, my King." She heard a feminine voice. It didn't sound like Deitalyn. The chef maybe? Royal families always had chefs."Thank you, Jalta."He made to close the door but not before she heard the same voice say,"If you are in need of my sexual services, please let me know, my king. I have learnt how to please you and I am more than willing to show you, whenever you are ready."Eleanor's brows rose to her hairline. Who was that!? Turning, she felt Andreas' awkwardness before hearing him say, "Thank you but I won't be needing your services. You may leave."&nbs
