The next several months were brutal to say the least. Angelina and Dean had grown rather close to one another seeing as they spent most of their time together. Their master only allowed for them to leave in order to hunt out food every other night and only with him. Angelina and Dean both strongly disliked the man but respected him out of fear. Days turned into nights that turned into days and a few months later the man grew agitated and more intolerable. Angelina and Dean had noticed this and began to make them more on edge also. Anastasios was a strange fellow, he never said much of anything to either of them. When he did address either of them, he always made it more than clear that he didn't perceive them as an equal. Both Angelina and Dean had grown rather close since they had felt they only had each other and plans of making an escape had began to come up in their daily discussions. Neither one was aware of how or where they would run to once they did make an escape. They both decided that an escape would need to come soon.
As Angelina made her way to the bedroom door she looked back over to the girl who was now wide awake and standing in front of the bed. She certainly did look to be innocent but Angelina knew better.
"Keep in mind what I said, don't you dare hurt Dean." Angelina warned her once more before opening the door once she did she nearly had gotten knocked over as Dean pushed her aside running over to the girl and grabbing her into an embrace and spinning her around she wrapped her arms around him and smiled sweetly although Angelina wasn't fooled she saw something sinister in her eyes. Angelina shot the girl one last look warning her to behave before she stepped out of the room and closed the door. As she began to walk down the hallway to the stairs she could hear Seth's voice whine out to Roman as he protested going on his short vacation. She sighed deeply and closed her eyes a moment before continuing her way down the stairs.
Anastasios threw Dean against the large rock with great ease. Dean had the wind knocked out of him but it wasn't at all very painful. The pain mere mortals feel is much worse. Once you were immortal Pain was more mental than it was physical. As the dark man stalked up to him he grabbed him by the shirt collar leaning in closely.
"You will not defy me. I am your master as I am hers." He pounded his fist into the boulder cracking it in several places and then continued to speak. "There is no escape, do you understand?" Dean shook his head nervously "When I am finished with you both you may be so lucky that I let you go. However keep this show of disrespect up and I may kill you." Anastasios laughed "or perhaps I will kill her and make you watch." Dean cringed at the very idea of watching Angelina suffer and his master had known it. "Ah, yes just as I suspected you wouldn't want that now would you?" Dean just shook his head as the man let him go and stomped off. Angelina rose from the corner and ran to Dean, throwing her arms around him.
"Are you alright?" She asked. Dean embraced her tightly, his breath was shaky.
"I'm fine."
"No more trying to escape, Dean he could have killed you." Angelina cried.
"Fine we will stay for now, but there is no way I will give my eternity to that man." Dean's voice was rough and Angelina could tell he was serious.
As Angelina reached the bottom step she had already heard enough. Seth for the most part was obedient but he still had a rebellious streak in him that would never go away. Angelina and Roman accepted this; Dean on the other hand was easily annoyed with it. Angelina walked into the living room to see Roman sitting on the couch holding his head in his hands. Seth was standing in front of him Flailing his arms.
"It isn't fair that I am expected to leave." Seth cried "She should leave I was here first." He stomped his foot putting emphasis on it. Roman rubbed his temples then sighed deeply, Angelina could see his resolve with Seth was weak.
"We talked about this Seth; you need to go just for awhile." Roman looked up at the younger man attempting to reason with him. "It is in your best interest as well as all of ours." Seth clenched his fists and as he took in a sharp breath.
"Fuck that whore upstairs can I control the fact that she wants me? Is that my fault?" Seth screamed as Angelina's mouth fell open and Roman's head shot up in surprise. "Maybe my best interest is to leave this family and go out on my own." Just then Angelina felt she had all she could take.
"Sit your ass on the couch now, Seth." She screamed out, Seth turned and looked at her he could practically feel the daggers she stared into him. "I have heard enough" she continued. "How dare you threaten us." She stood there with her hand planted firmly on her hip. Seth knew better than to continue to argue now.
"I'm sorry" Seth said quietly as he stared at the floor. Angelina turned her attention to Roman.
"And how dare you tell Seth about that girl lusting after him." Roman sprung up off the couch and grabbed Angelina by the shoulders holding her still.
"Look at me." His command was simple but his voice was sharp. Angelina tilted her head up looking at him with reluctance. Her mate hardly ever made a demand of her so she knew he meant business.
"You think I told him?" He questioned her. "Do you think I am that unaware of what we are dealing with?" He looked into her eyes "Do you think I could be so insensitive to Dean?" Roman released her and walked out of the room but not before punching a monstrous hole in the wall first. He looked back over his shoulder for a moment after doing so only for enough time to see Angelina mouth out the words "I'm sorry"
As the years went on Angelina and Dean learned to accept that Anastasios was in control, or they at least learned to let him think he was. The three had moved up the shores of Greece to that which is now known as Bulgaria near Turkey. Several hours a day were spent traveling the group would only stop at night to find shelter and only for a few hours. Sometimes they would stop and Anastasios would train Dean on how to conduct himself in a fight. They didn't encounter many people along the way and most of whom they did Anastasios would either turn or he would greedily feed on them alone. Angelina and Dean were only allowed enough to keep their strength enough to be able to function. When they would encounter any number of persons Angelina and Dean were made to help him turn them all. He would then leave them alone and behind. One day Anastasios was kind enough to confide in them that they were headed for Romania and that once they stepped foot on the soil of his homeland that he would then let them in on the plan that he and his brethren were going to execute.
Angelina had wanted to run to Roman and throw her arms around him and beg for his forgiveness but she was unable to move once she heard Dean's voice. She knew she was with him and she also knew this could get very ugly very fast. Angelina spun around looking at Dean briefly before her attention focused on Mia who was standing behind Dean but slightly to the side. The impossible girl stood there as Dean clutched her hand. While Dean looked at Seth as if he wanted to wrap his hand around his throat, Mia stood there batting her long eyelashes at him probably wishing she could also get her hands on him too. Angelina rolled her eyes and Seth crossed his arms across his chest as he and Dean stared each other down.
"Why are you all down here yelling?" Dean asked "is Seth causing more problems now?" Seth eyes instantly grew colder and he shot Dean a dirty look.
"I don't have problems as big as yours." Seth breathed out as he hopped up off the couch and followed in the same direction that Roman took off in. Angelina and Mia locked eyes once more, as Angelina shot her another dirty look but Dean caught it this time and went to reach out for her. Angelina moved in close to him wrapping her arms around his neck and hugging him as Mia just glared at her, Angelina returned the glare as she pulled Dean in closer to her. Angelina could have sworn she saw a look of jealousy cross over Mia.
"I have to go find Roman and Seth" she explained as she pulled away. "We will talk later."
