Author's Note: So here's Chapter 2! Ugh It's so short, not even 1,000 words, but I needed to post it. What I do is I write to I come to a fitting stopping place, and then I post it. That Is why they are so short, and probably have errors because I don't look over them. Anyway, I want to thank everyone who reviewed, and I want those who care to know that I will be posting another chapter of Thieves of My Heart soon.

I really hope you like this chapter! Please review and tell me what you think!

Mark of the Destined

Ch.2

Damian's POV

Damian awoke to a strange sound. He sat up slowly. The first thing he realized was that his back and head hurt, a lot. Second, he realized he was in some metallic room. He looked around in confusion. It wasn't until he saw the control panel that he started to remember.

He remembered the strange men, and his father freaking out and putting him on the ship. Damian still couldn't believe he was on a spaceship, but saw no other explanation for where he was now.

A strange noise came from the door of the craft. Damian looked over, and saw a sharp metal object sticking out of the door. Damian knew it wasn't there before. He went over to get a closer look, and when he was a few steps away, it started to move.

Damian jumped back in surprise. The object seemed to be cutting through the door, and Damian realized it was some kind of knife. The knife cut through the door in a large oval, and the cut out door fell away.

With the door gone, Damian stood facing a group of men. Fear immediately coursed through Damian, he was thinking these were the men who were after him, but then he realized these men were different.

First of all, these men were all incredibly tall, probably close to seven and a half feet. Second, they all had blonde hair, unlike the other men who had multi colored. And third, these men were dressed in dark res, with black accents.

Damian felt a bit less scared when he realized these were different men, but fear returned ten fold when he realized that they had broken onto his ship, they were huge, and they had guns. Damian backed away until he felt his back hit the wall of the ship.

The intruders entered the ship through the hole they made, and all except for three went off into the ship. The largest one, who Damian suspected was the leader, looked down at him.

"Who are you?" The man asked in an English, but with a strange accent Damian had never heard before.

Damian couldn't make his mouth work, so he just stood there in fear, looking up at the giant.

The man grabbed Damian's shoulder and shook it. "I asked you a question boy." He growled. "Who are you, and what are you doing so close to our planet?"

Being shaken broke Damian's paralysis, and he tried to answer. "I... I… " The man shook him again, so Damian started to speak rapidly out of fear. "My name is Damian, and I don't know why I'm here. I was put on this ship, and I was knocked out, and I just woke up when came on the ship, I swear."

"That's quite the story, and it sounds like a shit cover up for coming here to kill our king."

Damian knew being accused of wanting to kill a king could not be good. "I swear its true! I don't want to kill your king! I don't want to kill anyone! I don't even know what planet I'm near so why would I want to kill the king of some random planet? Please, I never knew of space travel before today. I'm from Earth! Please believe me!"

"Ha! Like you could be from Earth! No one from Earth is able to leave without being accompanied by someone, and your obviously alone!" The leader turned to the others. "Take him to the prisons. We will take him to the king to see what he wants us to do with him."

"WHAT!? NO!" Damian screamed as two other men grabbed him. "LET ME GO!"

Lucien's POV

I watched as the ship disappeared, and prayed that Damian would be safe. I then turned to go back upstairs and face them. I knew that by now they would have already entered the house, and I couldn't let them find this room, if they did, they would easily be able to track Damian.

I went up the stairs, and quietly closed the hidden door. I took a deep breath, and walked into the living room. Standing in the center of the room, facing the opposite direction was Xadievyn. Men I didn't recognize, because the men he used to work with were probably killed when it was discovered they allowed me to escape, surrounded him.

I decided to act brave and cocky, because I knew it would piss them off.

"Hello Xade. Long time no see. How are you?" I said with a smirk.

Xadievyn whipped around to face me, and scowled. "Better, now that I've finally got you." He said in his disgusting voice that sent disgusted chills down my spine.

"I'm so glad that I have brightened your day." I told him cheerfully.

Xadievyn scowled again. "Enough games Lucien. Where is the prince?"

"I'm so sorry, but he's not here."

Xadievyn ran at me, and looked like he was about to strike me, but thought better of it. "What did you do with him?" Xadievyn growled.

"I sent him away. You'll never find him."

Xadievyn grabbed me by my throat, and lifted me up. I couldn't breathe, and dark spots appeared in my vision. "I'd kill you, but for some reason my king wants you alive. But, I'm sure my king has a punishment much worse than death in store for you." Xadievyn then let go of my throat, and I dropped to the ground.

I tried to take in air, but was still unable. I could only choke and watch at Xadievyn took out cuffs, and went to put them on me, before I passed out.

Oh, and in case you are wondering, the leader of the the giant people who Damian was talking to was not the love interest. You'll meet him in the next chapter.
