Chapter 1
"Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle all the way...."
Christmas was right around the corner and the city was filled with snow, decorated by lights and Christmas carol masked the street noise.
On her way home, Arielle spotted a small shop at the end of the alley, "hmm was this shop always here?" She stared at the shop for a moment. She always walked through the street, it was her way home which she knew by heart but it was strange that she didn't notice the shop here before, she thought.
She opened the door to the shop, and the bell on the door tinkled as she entered, "Welcome." A lady greeted her with a smile. She was probably around the late 50s, her smile had its own charm, graceful and wise, "How can I help you, child?" She asked.
"Just looking around." Arielle smiled back.
The shop was wide and spacious inside, completely different from how it looked from outside, numbers of decorated Christmas trees at every corner of the place, the shop was glittering with pretty lights, decorative materials, plush toys, music section with the music player and albums and many more, the shop had almost everything. The place was huge, but there wasn't even a single salesgirl or someone to help the older woman? How odd! She thought.
She strolled around and spotted few scented candles which had a unique and sweet smell, she took one for her best friend-Tasha, a Christmas present, she made her way to the counter. On the way she spotted a booklet which picked her interest, it's paper were of unique quality, she was fascinated by them she wanted to buy them immediately but decided against it, she already had numerous booklets back home which she had bought but never used. With a heavy heart, she left the booklet at its place and went to pay the bill. "I'll take this." She handed the candle.
"Gift?"
"Yes, a Christmas present." She answered.
"And yours?" The lady asked.
She shrugged.
"Any plans for Christmas?"
"Yes, me and my blanket, snuggling on my bed," she whispered and laughed. "Too cold outside."
After buying the gift she was checking out of the shop when the owner gave her the booklet, the same one she wanted to buy, " A gift for your next novel. May you have a miraculous Christmas!" She winked.
After walking a few blocks away she halted, "Wait, how did she know I write?" She was a popular mystery/thriller web novel writer, soon she was going to have her book published on paperback but no one knew her identity except for her best friend. She went back but found the shop closed. 'Strange!'
****
"Wake up sleepy head!" She heard someone shout into her ear. "it's a big day for you! wake up already!"
Arielle slowly opened her eyes to find her best friend trying to pull her up. "Come on wake up already!"
"Are you all set?" She asked with a wide smile on her face.
"yes! Finally, the day has come! To be signed by the Capriana publication!" She hugged her best friend and cried with joy. Capriana publication was one of the top publications of the world. It was unique too, they only signed with mystery/thriller/horror genre and every book they published was a bestseller.
"Keep that manuscript and the contract ready, I'll freshen up." She instructed her best friend and rushed to the bathroom.
"What's this?" Tasha found something on her desk. she picked up the booklet and turned the pages, "A new novel?" she exclaimed.
"Wait!" Arielle shouted from the bathroom, she had the habit to write it down instead of typing her stories, she used her gift to write 2-3 chapters of her new novel last night before going to bed. She rushed out with the toothbrush still on her hand. "Give that to me."
"Nope. You're writing a new novel? A romance novel at that?" Tasha ran around the room reading the notes.
"Just give it back." She finally managed to catch up and snatched it.
"So? when are you going to upload that?" Her best friend asked.
"Upload what? I'm not uploading it anywhere."
"But why?"
"Cause I'm very comfortable with my genre."
"Why? What's bad with romance genre?"
"I'm not good at it."
"But I liked it."
"Whatever! Let's forget about this one and focus on my current book, please? We're getting late."
"Fine, but promise me that I'll get to read that when you complete it."
"Complete it? I just scribbled a few scenarios I don't think I'll ever complete this. Now don't argue, we're getting late!"
****
The next day she searched for the booklet everywhere but couldn't find it.
"Where did it go?" She had searched the entire house.
"Did you take my booklet?" She called her best friend to inquire.
"Which booklet?"
"The same booklet you were after yesterday."
"Why? Didn't you say you're not completing it?"
"So you did take it?"
"No, I haven't touched it after you snatched it from me."
"But I can't find it anywhere!"
"where will it go? Why would anyone steal your booklet? Search for it properly, it must be somewhere inside the house."
"Okay, but are you sure you didn't take it?"
"Of course not."
"Alright. Bye, Talk to you later."
She again searched for it but couldn't find it anywhere.
***
The next day she visited the same shop to buy another booklet of the same kind but to her surprise, the shop was entirely different from when she last visited. It was narrower and dull, the beautiful lady with a kind smile was nowhere and when asked about the booklet, she only found the ordinary ones, disappointed she left the shop with a sad face.
******
On the day of the Christmas eve, on her way back home she slipped on a banana peel on the road and fell, "What the hell?" She shouted. Glaring at the peel she shouted, "who in the world throws that thing on the road? you have a bin for that!" She picked up the banana peel and threw it on the bin by the side of the road. There she found something unexpected, her booklet was thrown inside the bin, "How did you end up here?" she picked it up and cleaned it with her kerchief.
After reaching home, she placed her booklet on the table, and after writing a few more chapter she dozed off.
At the stroke of 12, the booklet began to glow and wrapped the entire room with a bright warm glow.
When Arielle opened her eyes, she was standing in front of a book shop.
"Where the hell am I? How did I reach here?"

They cuddled against each other in the bed, she clung on to his shirt holding it tightly, "What?" he raised his brows at her, "I'm scared you'll disappear," She spoke in a sad voice.

"What do we have in the schedule?" Eiden asked his secretary, slipping inside the back seat of his car."The book launch," Jerry answered him as he took the driver's seat."Let's go ahead with it, then preparations have been done?" Eiden asked, "Ms. Williams looked over everything," Jerry replied with a smile. "Our Irene did the arrangements?" Eiden raised his brows, "Hmm, let's go and have a look then," Eiden leaned back against the leather seat as they drove off. As soon as they entered the gate, Eiden kept aside his laptop and pulled his suit from the hanger, getting out of the car he downed the suit and climbed the stairs, he paused for a moment, "This looks familiar," he cocked his head to the side. "Boss?" His secretary looked at him with concern, Eiden shook his head and climbed up the rest of the stairs. But the more he went in the more he found it familiar, when he entered the hall, it hit him clear, he then turned around and asked his secretary, "what did you say the name

The portal disappeared along with his Elle, "She's gone..." he whispered into space, tears streamed down his eyes, "she's really gone..." He hung his head as he buried his face on his palms. He felt a sudden piercing pain in his heart, his face twisted in pain as he clutched his hand to his chest, suddenly he saw a sharp glare, his vision darkened as he dropped down on the floor, the honking of cars pierced his ears, he covered his ears, his head throbbed with pain as the noise in his ear worsened, with a sharp pain on his chest he lost his consciousness. The glare of the sun on his face made him stir from his slumber, the beeping of the machine rang in his ears, with his eyes slowly adjusting to the bright light, the white ceiling came into his view."Where?" He tried to get up but a sharp pain on the sides of his chest pushed him back into the bed. "Oww," He tried to move his hand but his hands refused to move, they felt so weak. "Are you awake?" A worried face came into his view,

Elle sat at her table and stared at the laptop, āA romance novel, eh?ā She heaved a sigh shaking her head, āWhat the point it was all cliche, he ate my ears complaining how bad it was.ā She pouted sulkily. She opened the laptop regardless and placed her fingers on the keyboard, she closed her eyes and took a deep sigh, āFine, letās give it a go,ā She nodded determinedly.

"No!" Arielle woke up screaming, she flinched as the lights burned her eyes, her eyes were swollen from the crying, her eyeballs hurt by the glare of the bright morning sunlight."What happened?" Her best friend opened the door perturbed. She looked at her best friend and began to sob, "again?" Her best friend closed the distance between them and pulled her into a hug. "Can't you tell me what's wrong?" She asked her rubbing her back as she sobbed in her arms. "I can't see you like this, you won't even tell me what's wrong?"The only answer she got was a whimper from her as she cried vigorously.It ha
