Nicole woke up from her deep slumber. She realize this wasn"t her bed that was sleeping. It was a luxury bed. Nicole couldn"t help but slightly pull the covers back away from her body to see multiple of bandages wrap around here chest and legs even on her head.

"I see your awake now Nicole" Jasper came in with fresh clothes for Nicole to change into; seeing three maids behind him.

"These maids will help you change your bandages and clothing, if you are wondering where Charles is then he is in the dining room waiting for you." he said with a smile that would light up the entire room.

"For now you will get dressed" Jasper said as he handed the maid her clothes.

"Thank you Jasper." Nicole weakly got up from the bed as the maids walked to her bowing.

Once the maids was finished with there task, one of the maids strolled Nicole to the dining room as another maid a.s.sisted on helping her up from the wheel chair as she sat infront of Charles looking away.

"You aren"t going to say thank you." he looked up her as he sipped a bit of wine.

"Yes thank you so much Prince Charles...I"m thankful!" Nicole said with a childish voice that made Charles get slightly upset at her tone.

"Do you truly think I am insane Nicole. Jasper is more insane than me yet he hides it so well you couldn"t even know. I am willing to start over an make ends meet for your satisfactory. Isn"t that what you wanted" Charles poured more gla.s.s of wine in his bottle.

"Yes I did say we can start over as friends, like I said you was moving to fast for me. I know about your little past!! I"m not going to be bet victim in your case to fling at. The way you humiliated me yesterday was un-called for, you call yourself a prince." Nicole started to tear up as her emotions got the best of her.

Jasper did his best to calm down Nicole wiping her tears away with a tissue as he pat her back lightly telling her to "calm down and relax her mind from any trouble." Charles got up from his chair walking over to Nicole kneeling aproaching to her as she begin to cry more covering her face as memories of her past poured into her mind. Jasper looked Charles with a saddened face, he hated seeing her cry. Such a pretty girl doesn"t deserve to cry but to be happy.

"What shall we do prince Charles " he said rubbing her back trying to make her comfortable the best way possible.

"Let me handle this Jasper you can leave us" Jasper bowed as he left the dining room wishing him a sign of good luck.

Charles got up from his position and stood inbetween her legs removing her hands away from her face. " you must stop this crying...crying doesn"t get you anywhere, just relax nothing bad is going to happen to you I will keep you safe is that clear? I want to say I"m sorry to have humiliated you like that " Nicole nodded slowly as charles helped her eat her food. Once she was finished eating Charles carried her bridal style to the balcony as the city view was breath taking at night.


"Wow the view is gorgeous!" Charles got closer to the edge of the balcony. Nicole looked at him frighten. Jasper ran into the dining room with the guards as he finally realized that wasn"t actually Prince Charles but a imposter that broke into the manner.

"Now you must fall to your death..." he let go of her as started screaming. Jasper screamed out her name as she thought to herself "if this is how im going to die then im glad...I dont have to suffer anymore." she closed her eyes ; then in a spilt second stopped she stopped falling as Charles held her in fear of what soon was going to be her death. He seemed badly bruised as if he was in the middle of a war. Charles ended up having to fight a couple of pure blood vampires during his counsel meeting.

"Sorry I couldn"t get to you sooner...you had to fall for a imposter. When will you learn dear..." Charles flew to his room were Nicole was sleeping at. She looked over in his direction as she realized his wounds was completely healed. Once they got into his room he gently laid her down on the bed as he took over his shirt.

"C-Charles what happened to us taking things slow!!" She looked at him blushing deeply at his muscular body.

"Hmmm oh I"m just changing my shirt there was lots of blood on it so why not. I can take away your virginity if you like." he gave her wink as looked away from him. She wondered we she was going to return home, it was more of pondering thought to ne honest. "You will be going home tomorrow as of now you are spending the night in my home just to make sure that your safe. " he laid next to her as he falls asleep. Nicole couldn"t help but gently touch his peachy cheeks that made her blush.

The next morning they went to school going to home room as Nicole was once again in a wheel chair being strolled around by the prince himself. Girls looked at her and talked about her only to make herself worry if they girls was going to tease or haze due to her time being spent with Prince Charles .

Charles whispered in hear ear " These girls are jeleous, they want the same treatment I"m giving you, but it will never happen . I"ll help in your cla.s.ses just say the word and I will tutor you my dear. "

Nicole looked at him with a smile on her face knowing the fact that cla.s.ses was going to be struggle for her this year. She knew about her disability; the struggle she go through to keep up with everyone else.

Charles gave her a genuine smiled as he entered her cla.s.sroom to help her with work that made things complicated to her but easy for some other people.

He lightly motioned her hand with his as he guided her to write simple cursive that she when she was a toddler.

The teacher wasn"t able to say anything to Charles he kept giving Mr.Paterson an the rest of the teachers death glares along with the rest of the cla.s.s. " your doing great Nicole, Im sure you will pa.s.s the cursive test. A little help doesn"t hurt yes." Nicole nodded as he smiles at her joyfully giving her a highfive.

Charles ended up strolling Nicole to her cla.s.ses ; each one he a.s.sisted her with. Once cla.s.s was finished he ended up taking her home . Charles looked up a bit some files in his carriage about the theif and what the according record was. A rouge vampire appears in the files they didn"t belong to anyone continuing to disorganized themselves.

Charles couldn"t help but give a devilish smile as his eyes turn red. He ripped the paper to shards in anger as Nicole watched in fear. He realized she was watching her as he controlled his breathing as he got out the carriage hitting a tree leaving a dint on it. He went back inside the carriage leaving the ripped up files on the ground.

"Are you okay Charles " Nicole looked at him with a worried face.

"I"m fine I had to let out a bit of self of esteem like you say." he said winking at her.

Charles arived at her home as he gets out the carriage and pulls out the wheel chair letting her sit down and strolled her to the door as she opens it. He ends up carrying her up the stairs and on her bed as she thanked him.

"Lets talk for a little bit, is that okay?" Nicole sat her self up patting her bed wanting him to sit with her. "Sure what ever you want Nicole, I"m here." he smiled at as he Ended up siting next to her as they both talked normally.

After two hours of talking she put her head on his shoulder as he put his head on hers leaving a kiss on head as he starred to read his book "The Great Gastby."

Morning had arrived, feeling the beams of warmth touch her body she Woke up seeing Jasper sitting in a chair next to the bed. Nicole looked at her body seeing her wounds was completely healed she felt relief on her shoulder. Jasper setting the papers down on his lap before handing Nicole a cup of tea; she sat up leaning her body on the headboard taking the cup from Jasper.

"Good morning Miss Nicole did you sleep well?"

Nicole takes a sip of tea that filled up her hungry before speaking to Jasper "My sleep was decent, have you been here this whole time? Sorry to ask such a question but I was rather curious."

"Prince Charles told me to watch over you for the time being, the performance from last night was canceled so you didn"t miss a thing. An indeed I was watching you in your sleep, you look rather peaceful. Something I wish to have but it seems I"m to late for that."

Nicole blushed at his choice of words, she didn"t feel like she was being controlled at all. If she was with Charles who knows what could have happened she would have followed his ever command. Jasper suddenly grabbed her hand gently squeezing it taking her thoughts away, only for Nicole to look at him in sudden confusion.

"Sorry to disturb your day dreams but would you like to go out to the city for the day. I"ll even bring you back home once were finished."

Jasper taking no time to pull her out of bed noticing how short she was, he found it rather cute. He waited for her answer only for her to say "I would like that,Why are you looking at me like that?" She noticed him eyeballing her up and down.

"Oh it"s nothing I just find you rather short. Little Lamb" Just as Nicole was about to protest the surroundings she was once in was completely black. Jasper intertwine his hands with her as his and hers clothing had turn simple and plain. She opened eyes seeing the brick pavement on her feet; they both landed outside the place and somewhat in the center of the City. The palace was in the center an the buildings was all around the exterior.

Nicole let"s go of his hand Taking a few steps forward seeing the people walk pa.s.s her and the large buildings that was in front of her. She was like a child excited about everything little thing that moved.

Jasper walked up to her placing his hand on her shoulder, she looked up at him seeing a warm smile on his face.

"Let"s walk around" With that they started to walk into the open city Jasper started to talk again as she listen seeing men and women even kids exploring the area"Don"t get to excited, as you can see there people here with high and low status. This is considered a local market filled with everything you can dream. Like this jewelry here this merchant is selling." Jasper stopped taking a peek of the expensive jewels as for Nicole her eyes lit up at the aqua blue gemstone it was gorgeous. She knew she couldn"t afford something like that in her life time even if she saved up her money just for herself it all went to her family ever last coin that she had.

"I would like to purchase that gemstine sir"Jasper said with no emotion in his voice. Nicole looked up at him seeing him pay for the gemstone she looked at.

"That is thirty coins" Jasper handed him the coins taking the gem from the merchant giving it to Nicole.

"W-Why did you buy with for me? That was rather expensive you didn"t have to do that you know"

"I did it out of kindness, I can return it back and you can get nothing at all."

Nicole looked down not saying a word to him only for Jasper to chuckle lifting her chin up with his index finger.

"Your to emotional Little lamb do you know that."

Jasper taking off her necklace, putting the gemstone through the loop. She turned around letting him put the necklace back on her neck, once he did that he smiled at her slightly.

"How does it look on me?"

Jasper grabbing a strand of her curly hair as she blushed "It looks good on you, I promise you. I didn"t mean to make you upset earlier it"s somewhat rare for me to be spending so much time with a human. I remember spending a lot of time with a little girl who was human, she was such a curious thing. I see she has grown into a beautiful women." Jasper smiled to himself thinking of her.

"Where is she?"

"I can"t say at this moment, you must be tired let me send you home for the day."

"We just got here Jasper! I want to see more of the stores? Maybe I can bring something back for my family."

Jasper eyes narrowed at her"Like I said its best for you to not get carried away.Humans like you make my head hurt ugh always crying about every little thing."

"Well my apologies...Please send me home for the day." Nicole looked down as a tear fell from her cheek. Jasper was always the hot temper child growing up, always holding in anger and taking it out on innocent people. For that he felt remorse for making her cry not wanting to ruin her day, he takes his handkerchief dabbing it on cheek.

Nicole looked up at Jasper in surprise "Your not going to take me home right now are you?"

"I didn"t mean to make you cry, I"m not as mean as Charles but I"m not heartless either. But I get anger quickly so you been warned."

"I promise not to cause anymore trouble"

"No trouble at all little lamb"

Jasper takes her hand and walks quickly sensing Charles near by, he didn"t expect him to be in the town so early. Nicole was more confused than worried looking at Jasper to which facility expression held no emotion.

"Where are we going? Aren"t we still going to walk around?"

"Charles can sense you here in this market I"m simply drawing you away from him. Sadly I"ll have no choice but to send you home for the day."

Jasper came across a group of People dancing and swaying to the music on the corner of the small building. Suddenly Jasper grabbed her waist lifting her up in the air twirling her around as Charles went inside a near by stead close to the group. Once Jasper realized he was gone he puts Nicole down to see her blush madly causing him to smirk.

"Why are you blushing? Was it because I twirled you around." Saying this caused her cheeks to turn red brighter in color taking her hands and placing it on her face to not embarra.s.s herself more. Jasper leaned against Nicole whispering in her ear "My your cheeks are red as an apple, how winsome. I"ll be letting you go now."

Once Jasper said that he snapped his fingers teleporting her back home for the day.
