Just as I was about to doze off to sleep, I heard a heavy thud on my door. I sat up to look at Mom, but she was deep asleep. I lay back down and chalked it up to the house settling.

But then I heard the thud again. This time, it was louder.

Terrified, yet bold, I took a torchlight down the stairs to see what it was. The creaking of the stairs beneath my feet sounded louder in the dead of night.

At the bottom of the stairs, I swung my torchlight around the room, trying to see what was making the noise. But there was nothing. Just an eerie silence.

Then, I suddenly heard a whisper. "Stella."

I stood in the kitchen and was suddenly surrounded by a screeching noise that ran chills down my spine. Turning around, I saw that one of those creatures embraced Sarah, my sister. Its big, slender arms wrapped around her, and her eyes had wide stares of terror.

I screamed, inching forward to rush towards her, but it was too late. One of the creatures pounced upon me, and I felt something sharp pier

The nightmare was fresh in my mind, and the terror that lingered in my heart was hard to dissolve.I got out of bed and started my morning routine just to get it off my mind. I showered, put on my work gear, and went into the kitchen to make coffee. My hands shook while pouring the coffee into the filter, and my mind kept wandering right back to the nightmare.I sipped my coffee, reaching out for my phone to check if there was a message from anyone.

That sounds terrifying."I felt the lump well up in my throat as I hugged her back. "I've been so scared, Mom. I don't know what it means or why I'm having it."My mom squeezed me into a tight hug as her face changed from empathy to shock. "Stella, this is.

We don't want to spook him."But before Sara could respond, Jethro's voice boomed from across the room. "What's going on, Tunisha? Who are you talking to?"For one split second, Tunisha's smirk fumbled before she gathered her bearings once more. "Oh, just. Uh. Business, Jethro.

    Author's P.O.V ★ caramel ★A warm golden light crept along Tunisha's face, nudging her to wake up. She turned and twisted before her eyelids fluttered open to an unseen ceiling. Disoriented, she sat up, and her eyes wandered into the dimensions of the room in an emerging fear. Where was she?She felt a panic set in as she scrambled her mind in trying to remember how she got there. Her mind was like a single board, not telling her anything. "How did I get here?" she asked herself aloud, her voice shaking slightly.She swung her legs over the side of the bed, and fragments of the previous night began to resurface.

    Sara's P.O.V I hummed softly to myself as I cleaned Vincent's bedroom, my hands gliding easily across the surfaces. My eyes strayed to his dresser, toward that one drawer he'd always said not to touch. Curious, I wondered what could be so special in that one little drawer. "A surprise?" I asked innocently.My fingers found the handle and drew the drawer open in a second. Inside were heaps of photos. The first I picked was of a man crowned, an aura of melancholy diffused about him. A lot about him seemed so familiar, yet I just couldn't place who he was.I went onto the next picture couple embracing. The woman's face stirred something in my system. "Emma? Elias?" I blurred my head racing. Then, a sharp pain pierced my head, and pictures slipped from my hands as a groan escaped my lips.A voice reverberated inside my head, "I love you, and you are forever mine." But it wasn't Vincent's voice. There came confusion inside me. Picking up the coronation picture, the rise of tears was to be

    Jethro's POV Three Months later…%.Three months had passed since that fateful day. I sat in my throne room, full of the grandeur of a restored kingdom but my heart was still shattered. Ryker's defeat and Tanisha's demise brought peace, but only Eldrid still stirred in my heart.Elias entered, his face solemn. "Your Highness," he greeted low. I did not even look up. "Did you find her?" I asked without any expectation of a different answer.The pause that followed was all the answer Elias needed. "Nein, Your Highness." I looked down, my eyes welling up hot. I had sent Elias to scour the ruins-to search every inch of the explosion site. But there was nothing. No sign of Sara. No indication of her fate.I clung to hope, tenuous as the thinnest of threads but refused to break. She may yet be alive. She must. Elias stepped near. His footsteps made quiet echoes in the still hall. "I have searched every possible place, Jethro," he said, using my name rather than my title. "I have interrogate

    Jethro's P.O.V.I stormed down the corridors of Ryker's lair-my sword slicing through the shadows. Guards leaped to intercept me, but with rage fueling my movements, I cut them down with precision.Finally, I burst into Ryker's chamber, my eyes locking onto the man himself.Ryker stood calmly, an amused hint dancing on his lips."Where is Sara?" I yelled, my voice echoing off the stone walls. "Where are you keeping her?"Ryker's smile spread wider, but nothing fell from his lips. "Liar!" I spat, my hand tightening on my sword hilt. "I know you're behind this." Ryker somehow managed to lift an eyebrow. "Sara? Do you think I have Sara? You ought to know me by now, Jethro. If I had Sara, I'd leave a message. But I don't have Sara." Anger spilled over and I was yelling, "You're lying!Ryker's men drew their swords and, in the dim light of the room, angled them at me."Be careful, Jethro," Ryker said, his voice thick with malice.

"Let's just say you're guessing with me."Memories came flooding back to Emma's visit, the figure in black, the knock to the head. My mind reeled; fear clawed its way up my throat.Tanisha did not even bat an eye. "You see, Sara, you're quite valuable to me. Your.

    Tunisia's POV I was sitting in my dark living room; only a little light was in view, as it was occupied with dancing candles casting gruesome shadows on the walls. Marcus came in. "Ma'am, our spy says Emma is planning to open Sara's gate of energy for the war," he informed me with low urgent tones.My gaze jerked up; my eyes slit. That gate was the key to unimaginable power, and I wouldn't allow Emma to unlock it. "And?" I pushed my voice tight with anticipation.Marcus did hesitate this time before finishing, "Emma's trying to harness Sara's energy to aid her cause." My fist clenched alongside my jaw. That would be Ryker's death sentence. Failure. Defeat. No, I wouldn't let that happen."We cannot let that happen," I muttered to myself as my mind started racing. "Ryker would lose." Marcus stood before me, a look of neutrality upon his face. "What do you think we should do?" he asked.I smiled, cold and calculated. "We'll kidnap Sara, rendering Emma's plan useless.

    Emma's P.O.V.I pushed the door open of our modest home, worn out. The last few days had messed with my head, turning into a blur of anxiety and fear, as Mamma's condition deteriorated further with each passing hour. I walked toward her room, apprehension hanging heavy in my heart. Inside, she lay frail, pale with clammy skin."Mother?" I said, my voice barely more than a whisper. I took her hand in mine. She stirred, her eyes fluttering open. "Emma. . my dear," she whispered, just barely audible. I forced a smile onto my face, trying to hide my tears. "I'm here, Mother. You're going to be all right."But before I could get her reply, Lia strode into the room, a frown etched on her features. "Emma, don't tire her out," she reprimanded, firm in her voice. I frowned, suspicion dawning that something wasn't right. "Lia, what's going on? Mother isn't getting better," I said, accusation creeping into my tone.Lia's smile was syrupy and sweet.

"So that's why you came to me."I smiled back, feigning innocence. "Can you blame me? You are the most powerful man in the realm after all."Ryker chuckled, his eyes glinting with desire. "And what do I get in return?"My heart skittered as my gaze met his. This was it."Whatever you want," I whispered, my voice husky.Ryker's eyes flashed to mine, an inferno of intensity blazing there. "Will you?" he asked, his voice so low it was little more than a whisper and sensual.My heart fluttered at the sound as I nodded, my lips grazing his.
