NATALIA

I stood in front of the window of my room, gazing out at the world beyond. Outside, the first snow of the season was falling, dusting the warm surface of the land in a pristine white blanket. It was a beautiful sight, and one that I should have been able to appreciate fully. But for some reason, my thoughts kept drifting back to Romeo.

I didn't know why he had to come to mind now, when all I wanted was to forget about him. We'd been through so much together, and I thought I'd moved on. But as I watched the snowflakes flutter to the ground, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness at the memory of him.

Perhaps it was the snow that did it. After all, it was during a snowstorm that Romeo and I had first met.

But then the fights started over little things at first, but they'd quickly escalated into full-blown arguments. We'd tried to work through our issues, but in the end, we'd both decided it was best to go our separate ways.

    NATALIAI couldn't gather what had just happened all of a sudden. One moment, I was laying down and enjoying a blissful head massage from my dear aunt. The next moment, I was being called by one of her servent. Confused and a bit scared, I followed her without question, my mind racing with thoughts of what could be happening.Soon enough, we were in a grand balcony overlooking a massive fighting ring. My aunt sat on a throne-like chair beside me, looking down at the action below. I had never seen anything like it - men and women dressed in gladiator-style outfits were battling it out with swords and shields. The roar of the crowd was deafening, and I could feel the vibrations of their excitement in my chest.As I looked on, my aunt leaned over and whispered to me in a low voice, "This is the reason we're here, Natalia. We're here to witness the greatest fighters in the land battle it out for the chance to join my army."I felt a chill run down my spine. Army? What did that mean? Was m

    ROMEOI have never seen Natalia being so attentive towards me. It was as if she had been waiting for this moment to show me the amount of care she had for me. I had always known her to be a kind-hearted person, but the way she was carefully and gently applying the ointment over my wounds made me feel special.I had gotten these wounds when I fought against those beasts after being captured by the Dragon Master's guards on my way here to Natalia. I had thought it was the end for me, that I would never see her again. But here I was, lying in her arms, feeling her delicate touch on my skin, and I knew that I was lucky to have her in my life.As she worked on my wounds, I couldn't help but watch her every move. The way she concentrated on the task at hand, her eyes focused on the cuts and bruises on my body, her fingers gently tracing the contours of my skin as she applied the ointment. It was a mesmerizing sight, and I felt myself falling deeper in love with her with each passing second.

    NATALIARomeo told me to wait for him. And I could swear on anyone when he said that my heart skipped two beats because it was not his words that forced me to believe but it was his eyes that made me want to believe him for once.I stood there in the dimly lit hallway, my eyes fixed on Romeo as he walked away to go to his room as my aunt who turned out to be the Dragon Master, told him to stay over for a day or two. My mind raced with thoughts of what he could be planning, what he could want from me. It didn't take an idiot to tell me that it was all about his obsession with me."I don't know," I said, my voice shaky. "I don't know if I can do this anymore, Romeo.""Natalia, I don't know about other life, but, in this life, I'm not gonna let you go." When he said that, I saw something dark cross his expression. It was a look that made me want to run in the opposite direction, but my feet wouldn't budge.I could feel Romeo's eyes on me, his gaze burning into my skin. It was suffocating

My aunt's house was like a dragon's lair, and I couldn't bear to spend another day under her watchful eye.I quickly jumped into the shower, my mind racing with thoughts of my friend Sarah and how I couldn't wait to see her.

I had to get out of there before he showed up.As I finished my morning routine, I took a deep breath and summoned the courage to ask my aunt to open a portal to Sarah's home in the human world. It was my only chance to escape, and I knew I had to take it."Please, Aunt," I said, my voice shaking slightly. "I need to go to Sarah's house in the human world. Can you open

    NATALIAI stepped out of the portal and was immediately greeted by the sound of Romeo's voice. "Ah! there you are!" he exclaimed. My heart raced at the sound of his voice and I couldn't help but feel a mixture of excitement and dread at the sight of him. Standing before me, with his eyes narrowed mischievously and a sly smile playing on his lips was Romeo. He stood tall and proud, his chin held high, his sleek hair perfectly styled, and his black clothes fitting him like a second skin, making his features stand out even more.But my attention was quickly diverted to my aunt, Suli, also known as the dragon master. She was dressed in her ceremonial robes, ready to attend the blood moon ceremony, and it was obvious that I was expected to go with her. I looked back at the portal behind me, still open, and thought about Sarah, my friend who was waiting for me on the other side. She couldn't see through the portal, and I knew it could be dangerous for her if she stayed there too long. I had

I had to do something to make her understand that I was serious about this. I had to show her that I was not to be trifled with."Ok babes, if you don't want to go it's perfectly fine you can stay here or you can go back to Sarah's house," I said, my voice low and controlled.I looked at her friend, Sarah, whom Natalia was desperately trying to protect from me. She was a pretty girl, with long brown hair and green eyes, but I couldn't care less about her at the moment. All I wanted was Natalia, and I would do anything to get her.As Natalia tried to reason with me, I couldn't help but think about how wrong she was about me. She thought I was going to harm Sarah, but she was wrong. I wasn't interested in hurting anyone, except maybe for Sarah if she didn't do what I said."And as for Sarah," I said, my eyes fixed on her, "here, wear this

The cold wind danced on my skin, sending shivers down my spine. But despite the frigid temperatures, I felt a strange sense of calm wash over me.As we emerged on the other side, I surveyed our surroundings. We had arrived at the foot of a towering mountain, its peaks obscured by the ominous clouds that hung low in the sky. The air was thick with the acrid scent of sulfur, and the ground beneath our feet was barren and lifeless and it was covered with nothing but the white snow. Despite the foreboding atmosphere, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement course through me.

The urgency in my chest fueled the anxiety in my voice when he finally picked up."Romeo, it's Sydney," I blurted out, the words tumbling over each other. "I need your advice. Should I head to Natalia's now? Something just doesn't feel right, like there's an eerie cloud hanging over her due date."There was a pause on the other end, and then he asked, "What's going on?"It's hard to explain," I began, struggling to find the right words. "It's like there's something malevolent inside her, something beyond the ordinary. I can't shake this feeling that the child she's carrying isn't just a bundle of joy. It's like there's a darkness, and it's threatening both her and the baby."I could almost hear Romeo furrowing his brow on the other end. "Darkness? What do you mean?"I mean, it's as if there's an evil presence in her womb," I confessed, my voice dropping to a hushed tone. "And I'm afraid that once that chi

Elvina's eyes were a storm of defiance as she forcefully pulled my hand away from her shoulder. Her words were sharp, cutting through the room. "You can't control me.

The child she's carrying is the reincarnation of my sister, and her soul is not something anyone can dictate or tolerate."The room turned into an emotional battlefield, with unspoken truths and the weight of our complicated history thickening the air.

"Romeo," I began, my voice a delicate symphony tinged with excitement, "have you managed to reach Sebastian? I can't bear the agonizing wait any longer—I need to see Dahlia."Romeo's eyes, a canvas of uncertainty, met mine as he shook his head, "I haven't been able to get in touch with him yet, Natalia."A surge of frustration tightened its grip on my chest, like a vine constricting around my heart. I knew all too well the significance of Sebastian's elusive approval, especially in light of the unique bond he shared with Dahlia.
