"My life is over" I thought to myself as the Announcer threw me into the other three remaining Domestics, Samuel helped me up to my feet. The Announcer turned to us as the crowd disappeared from my sight as the curtains came closing in. the four of us were walked into a scrappy, wooden carriage that rattled intensely with every rock in the road. We were all silent and filled with fear while hearing our chains ching from everyone shaking.Usually I can be calm but the thought of dying at 18 isn't a good thing.

The  Carriage stopped, the door slammed open and an old Domestic grabs our chains and walked us out. The old man was gentle and whenever i look at him he gave me a fake smile, trying to lighten my mood. I was the first one to walk out of the carriage and saw the old beaten castle with many cracks from past battles. The air was heavy with grey skies and crows surrounding the perimeter. The gate opened and i saw a busy army training, the smell of blood filled my nose and made me start to watch the soldiers spare in a gruesome way. Tantibus can heal instantly when they are fed daily, they spar with no armor and with real weapons. Blood stained the soil. I walked into the actual castle and saw the walls were all brimstone with red carpets and torches with flames that glowed so darkly that they almost seem to be black. The man directed us to the Throne room,  I looked down from being  taught to look down to our masters.There they sat the King and Queen of the Black Knights, King Viktor Bloodgood and Queen Wisteria Bloodgood in the center and their children ,two sides. Two sons on the King's and the only daughter and the other son seated on the Queen's side. A wave of primal energy so strong that it took my breath from my lungs, from the sudden blast, I stumbled to my knees trying to catch my breath, but all i could do was to cough,
"Ahh look Father the poor thing has never felt Pheromones as strong as ours! What a pity!" the son to the king's right said pointing and laughing, the daughter laughed as well. Samuel ran to help me up "I'm fine!" i snapped at him from being angered by how snooty they are, I stood up to look directly towards them, breaking the rule that was enforced on me ever since I turned five years old. Their pompous eyes widened with surprise.

Kai's p.o.v.
The girl with hazel wavy hair looked up towards us with such hatred, but the most unusual thing about this Domestic is her eyes, one was cobalt blue and the other was a emerald green as bright as the forest in the east kingdom. I could tell that my family would be disgusted from how different she was, they only like normal , bland humans to be their domestics. I'm guessing that I will end up to be put with her.
"Why what have we here?" Scarlet said in her usual bratty tone, standing up
"Heterochromia iridum as a one of our Domestic?"  Alec in a mischievous voice stood up as well
"So disgusting!" Cain yelled joining in with my siblings
"How different?" I said in a curious tone slowly standing up

Eve's p.o.v.
"Children!" the Queen snapped, the all jumped and turned to look towards their mother
"Sit down" the King said tapping one of the arm rests lightly, they all obediently sat down
"Now that you've seen the four Domestics each of you may chose their most suitable human" the Queen said as we all happened to line up.
