Stolen

Chapter 12: Door Boy

"Oh, babe, I've missed you so much." Luke's voice come from behind. I didn't even get a chance to turn around to look at him before his arms wrapped around my body and took me off of the ground. I let out a laugh.

"Okay okay, Luke-" I laughed, trying to say more but he spun me to where I faced him, his lips connecting with mine. I let him get a good kiss before I bit his lip and he pulled back, looking me. I was still trapped in his arms and not touching the ground.

"What was that for?" He said tilting his head to the side, giving me the puppy eyes and I just giggled, putting my hands on his chest.

"Set me down, please." I said smiling and he did so, but kept his hands around my shoulders.

"So, how was Hawaii?" He said whispering in my ear. He truly must of missed me.

I laughed, before turning around to face him. "Beautiful. The beach was the best part." I said before looking at Luke. Something seemed off.

"Is everything okay?" I asked. He realized I was talking to him and he quickly shock his head, running his hand through his hair, looking off to the side.

"You know my ex?" He said, and that grabbed my attention.

"Yes, what happened?" I didn't really care much for Lucy Stark but judging how he was acting, I needed to put on my acting on and make him spill.

"Luke, what happened with Lucy?" I said placing a hand on his shoulder and he looked back at me.

"Just after you left for Hawaii, Lucy came to my house and said that people were following her. I told her that she was just going crazy and that no one was following her, but she grabbed me by my shoulders, and literally told she had seen the same black van following her for the past week. I just pushed her away and told her I didn't believe her." He took in a breath and placed his hands in his pockets. "Two days ago, her parents called to see if I had seen Lucy at all, she hadn't returned home from volleyball practice and that she wasn't answering anyone." Luke then looked back at me. "Yesterday, the police found her volleyball bag off to the side of the freeway, everything was inside, her smashed cell phone, gym clothes, everything." He licked his lips and I thought for the first time, I was going to see Luke Toland cry.

"She's been missing for the past 24 hours." and I looked down.

I know Lucy, sure, I wasn't one of her greatest fans but she was only known for her volleyball skills, it was already said that five colleges were waiting for Lucy to become a Senior in high school so they could try to talk her into going into their school. But now, Lucy was missing, and before she had came to Luke for help about people following her, and now, she was missing. Something had to be wrong for her to come crawling towards Luke for help.

"They'll find her, Luke. We just need to hope that she is pulling everyone's leg, okay?" I said placing a hand on the side of his cheek, and he smiled.

"Thanks, Sky." He said leaning forward and planting a kiss on my forehead.

"I love you Sky, don't forget that." He said before patting me head and heading back to his house.

I awoke with tears running down my cheeks. I had just seen Luke in my dreams and I thought it was real, but it wasn't. He was somewhere else, being yelled at by his Master, and I would most likely never see him again. I closed my eyes and brought my hand up to my eyes, letting what was left of the tears fall. After I was sure they were all gone, I looked at the door, my eyes squinting at the site of a thin line of light coming from under the door. That was surely not there before. I looked at it a little more, before I slowly sat myself up, looking around the small dark room to see if anyone else was with me, but I couldn't tell so I looked back towards the line of light.

"Yes, my father knows your coming, he's not the happiest." A voice said coming a little ways down. The voice belonged to Chip, who seemed like he was talking on the phone.

"Don't worry, I heard a lot of Masters who are coming are bringing their little pets. Yes, yes." His voice said.

"Don't worry, I'll let you pick which one of his you want."

"See you then, good bye." A click soon sounded and I listened as the sound of his feet hitting the cement get further and further away. Soon, I was left in silence again, the line of light still shinning and I looked at it until my eyes become heavy, and slowly, I went into a dreamless sleep.

"Skyler." A gentle voice said, rubbing their hand along my back, and at first, I thought it was fake.

"Skyler." The voice said once again, moving my hair from my face and I let my eyes flatter open.

I looked at who it was, my eyes going large. It wasn't Atticus, or Aby. I quickly rolled away from the person, until I felt my back hit a wall. I winched a little but kept my back pressed against the wall, the figure staying where they were kneeling.

"It's okay." The voice said.

"I'm just here to help you back to your room so you can change." The voice said softly. I had to guess the voice belonged to a boy.

"Who are you?" I said swallowing.

"Colton. Or what Master Hill calls me as, the door boy." He said.

"Wait, you're the boy who opens the door. Like the first time I came here?" I asked, moving a little closer.

He laughed a little. "Yep." He said standing up.

"I need to get you upstairs so you change into the dress the Master wants you to get in." He said walking over to me softly before reaching down and picking me up in bridal style, taking me out of the room.

He didn't really give me a chance to tell him I could walk so I just kept quite as he took me up the stairs, the light hurting my eyes. I looked away and pressed my face into his chest, and that seemed to not bug Colton.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt after a little." He said as he started to up go up more stairs. I could easily see that this was the hall where Heath's and I's bed room was. When Colton stopped by the door, he softly set me down and opened the door for me.

"Master said to get changed into the dress then head down to the kitchen and help Aby with the cooking." He said watching as I walked into the room.

"Colton."

"Yes?" He said tilting his head to the side.

"What did Master do with Heath?" I asked and Colton looked at me for a moment.

"I don't know but I think Atticus might be helping him." He said shrugging.

"Thanks, Colton." I said looking at him. He nodded his head, a soft smile across his lips before he closed the door for me to get dressed.

I looked around until I spotted the dress across my bed, as I got closer, I raised my eyebrows. It was a lovely dress, the shoes, which looked new, were sitting next to it, along with ear rings and a bracelet. I looked around to make sure no one was watching and I changed out of the cloths that smelled horrible and just before I got into the dress, I jumped into the shower really quick then got out, drying my hair and pulling it into a nice braid and then started to slip the dress on.
