"Why my prince, you look rather rattled. It's been long you saw someone die. Come forward" she says lovingly but yet in a creepy manner looking towards the crowd.
The children here are really accustomed to silence as all I hear are my gasps, coughs and the footsteps of the person she called.
"Rise" she says to me.
I want to rise but i still can't get my system and secondly, she can't boss me around. She should just kill me instead.
"I said rise! " she screams and I feel a tingle in my throat. For fear of repition of the earlier occurrence, I place my palms on the ground and try to push myself up but I slam back into the ground as my entire body is still shaken.
"Help her up!" She orders. And instantly, two creatures appear besides me. They pull me to my feet's and hold me up.
I fix my gaze on my dirty and bare feets. Blisters and bruises allover them. How am I not feeling those? .
"Look at me." She commands me. I heard her loud and clear, there's no way anyone couldn't. But I chose to act like I didn't hear her and keep my gaze on my feets trying to steady my breath through my bloody air pipes.
"Look up! " she commands so solemnly I feel chills run down and up my spine.
I look up at her as many emotions run around in my head. I have only felt like this once in my life. How could I feel like this twice in a day!?.
"This is my prince, he is currently the most important child in My Mansion. " she says as she places her hand on the shoulder of the brown haired boy standing beside her.
He looks about my age but is definately taller than I am and also taller than this witch even. He keeps staring blankly at me. His gaze fixed un moving from my face. An act that makes me slightly nervous. But I'm to busy trying to get my breathing back to normal to care.
"I just hope he doesn't mess it up" she says again. Tightening her grip on his shoulder. I was expecting a reaction from him, but he just stands still. His intense gaze still on me.
"So Sonia, my charming son here, would be the one to show you around your new home and teach you all you need to know about my mansion" she says to me as she glids gracefully towards me.
"Agreed Son!? " she asks the brown haired boy whoes gaze Is still on me, as she looks over her shoulder.
He remains silent but still won't take his eyes off me. His gaze so intense and smoldering, my bladder is threatening to burst. I've never felt so uncomfortable under anyone's gaze. Well maybe because Noone had ever had the nerve to stare so long and intensely at me.
"Now Sonia, you won't give my prince any troubles. Would you? " she asks as she takes hold of my chin in her hand and looks into my eyes.
Her creepy red eyes boring deeply into mine. It felt as though part of her was reaching into me to try get something.
Suddenly she gasps and stagers back holding on to her stomach. The creatures all try to move towards her but she motions her hand towards them. Meaning they should stand back.
She looks up at me in shock but then replaces her priceless expression with a smile.
"Taking care of her won't be a problem" I hear a male voice speak.
I look over the witch only to find the brown haired boy smirking widely at me.
His voice so unique and heavily laced with a British accent. Oh no.. He has an accent. So did the boy in the book!. I have definately been jinxed by Reading that book.
"Good" the white witch replys as she finally stands up straight.
"And tonight, we celebrate the welcoming of our new family member, Sonia with.. " she addresses the crowd of children before us as she moves forward. She keeps silent for a while as she smirks at the crowd. The room is suddenly submerged in dead silence.
Noone was speaking before, but now it seemed as though even breathing was a noise.
"Charles! " she finally screams.
A sudden whimper is heard from the crowd.
Two creatures from behind us ( the witch, me and gaze boy) suddenly fly towards the crowd. Fly!!... They fly!! My life just became a Harry Potter movie!.
"Please, don't do this to me. Madre please stop them.... I beg you please!! " a shrill and tiny male voice begins to cry from the crowd. The creatures then pull up a little red haired boy from the crowd.
He looks about thirteen or twelve years old. His red hair scattered and his glasses not sitting properly on his nose.
"Madre please.... I'm sorry for offending you.. I promise to change. Please don't do this to me. I would do just what you tell me... Stop pulling me!. Madre please. Have mercy on me. Please! " the little boy begins to cry as he struggles in the creatures grips.
I look to my left at the witch only to find her staring blanky at the crowd like she is not hearing the child's plea. My eyes catch a glimpse of the brown haired boy. His once expressionless face, now masked with pure sorrow.
I watch in horror as this creatures float across the room with the crying boy towards another huge door. What are they going to do with this poor child!?. I don't realize when a tear slides down my face.
The little child keeps crying and beging till he is taken into the next room. His crys are heared for a few more seconds till his voice rises In a high pitch and then silence once again engulfs the room. How could she not melt at that child's pleas!?.
"Charles has gone to fulfill his purpose" she says smiling at the crowd.
"And tonight, we all feast! " she says again beaming with smiles.
She suddenly turns towards me and is met by my hateful glare.
"What is this dear? You're crying. " she remarks as she wipes my tears off my face.
"Welcome to the family Sonia" she says as she takes hold of my shoulders.
"I have a feeling we would get along just fine. " she says smiling at me.
"Take her back. She isn't hungry" she orders facing the creatures. My heart skipped a beat when I heard 'take her back', I thought she meant home. But I was wrong.
one of the creatures who were holding me up, begins dragging me towards the door back through the way I came.
"Handle my daughter with care! " she screams at the creature and I feel it's grip instantly lessen on my arm.
So much fear and obedience for this woman. What is this new game life is playing with me!?. As if Harry had not done enough harm to me this night, now I have to face this!
I hear the door slam shut behind me as I am ushered back through the same route that led to the room. I am a huge talker, but right now, it feels as though silence and I have been married a long time.
I walk in silence as tears begin to slid down my cheeks. What's going on? Would that little boy suffer because of my presence?
Soon enough, I am standing before the wooden door. Behind which lays the same room I woke up in a few moments ago.
The creature gently pushes me into the room and slams the door shut. I stand in the partial darkness looking into this room. A room I know nothing about. I don't even know it's size. For all I care, there might even be creatures under the bed or in the dark.
I have always been scared of the dark. Today is officially the worst day of my life. Memories of earlier this night, memories from before I was abducted begins to flood my mind. Causing me to crash to the ground. My back resting on the door.
I miss my room, my stuffed bunny, my brothers, Mr. Jacob, i miss my home.
I begin to sweat and sharp pain takes over my arm as sweat runs over my newly acquired and hideous scar~from the burn.
I quickly draw my arm up to my lips and begin to blow cold breeze on my scar. Hot tears escaping my eyes. I always took everything as a joke. But right now, my life seems like a horror movie.
My stomach begins to sting.. My ulcer treathening to manifest anytime soon.
What is happening?.. Where am I?. Harry definitely didn't do this. Thinking about him brings about fresh and bitter pain.
My crying is interrupted by a sudden sound from a dark corner of the room.
"Who's there!? "
Song for the moment; Freak by Doja Cat.
Panic had already began to build in my system and my forehead head had began to produce sweat at an unbelievable rate. I felt as though I would pee on myself."Who's there!? " I ask again in fear, but my question is replied by a screeching sound.. All of a sudden, a rat dashes towards me causing me to scream. The only thing on my mind is how to get to the bed.I make my way towards the bed screaming, jumping, crying and swinging my arms in all directions as I hop from leg to leg. I jump on the bed sitting on my legs as i watch the rat run about the partially dark room.I finally adjust to a better position when my calves begin to hurt from me sitting on them. I draw my knees to my chest and use my hands to strap them put.I begin to wonder what is going on. Where am I?, how did I get here?, do my parent's have any idea where I am or last was?, am I going to die here?, what happened to that li
The creature pulls on my arm and I resist the pull. Although there is no more space between us, it moves closer to me as though daring me.An action which most definitely irritates me and puts the will to stand up for myself in me.It pulls again and I stand up and push it away aggressively. The feel of touching it is inexplicable. It was as though my palms came in contact with rid cages that layed directly beneath the dark hood.What was more alarming was it's reaction. It didn't stager as expected but rather slid across the room till it got to the door. The movement was so smooth you'd think it slid on ice.I scream as it jumps from across the room growling and lands right before me. One hand on my neck and the other hand raised with nails which seem to have grown longer, ready to claw my face.I close my eyes as I anticipate the antagonizi
I quickly wipe off the tears that are forming in my eyes before they fall. My mouth drops open at the sight before me.There are a over a hundred bathtubs in here. But that's not it, these tubs are meant to be white, but they are all brown and clearly dirty. The color of the water is another story. And let's not even talk about the tuns of naked girls taking their baths in this filthy things!!. The question is; are they actually getting clean or dirtier!?.I keep starring at all the girls. Different shapes, heights and color. How did they end up here?. Were they all abducted like me? Don't they wanna go home? And are they honestly comfortable getting into such polluted water!??."I also was a spoilt brat when I first got here. Didn't take a bath for the first three days. Till my pits became fragrance factories, and I had to decide which I liked better between eye stinging, cringe worthy or nose bleeding
I keep my gaze fixed on this creature for fear of my life. I look up and I see the creature looking straight ahead. I want to turn to see who the creature is starring at but fear has other plans so I don't move a muscle.The creature suddenly let's go of my hair and stands up growling. It then begins to walk away ~ I really have made alot of creature enemies between last night and this morning.I get up and use my palms to brush off bust from my body. I look behind me to see who saved my life or at least even say thank you. But all I see is almost everyone's heads starring towards the bottom of the stairs.Whoever it was had apperantly began to walk down the stairs and the look of admiration seemed to be plastered on everyone's face. I can't see through the crowd so I have no idea who it was. But the British accent makes me think it's gaze boy (the white witches 'most important child') ~i gave him the na
I spend the rest of my time reminiscing over Desmonds words and all I have just learnt. The white witches name is 'Madre' ~ sounds like mother.. Yuck!. The creatures are called 'fratellos' ~ what an odd name. And did Desmond just insinuate the possibility of my death at the hand of these monsters!? ~of course he did. Who knows what to expect from this nut hole anyways!?I don't like it here one bit. I wonder what my parents must be going through. They must be out of their minds searching for me. Harry clearly isn't behind this. And somehow I wish he was. Then I'd know getting out would be alot easier.And ugh! How did I not think of this!?. My driver. Poor Mr. Simon must be in alot of trouble. They might be thinking he kidnapped me! Oh dear LORD, help that poor man out of any trouble he may be in.I look down at my hands and I sight that hidious scar. The one Madre inflicted on me. I forgot to ask Desmond what it s
I turn around and find a Fartello standing behind me. It looks into my full bowl and then back at me. I look away from it as I don't like this creatures and want no form of direct contact or interaction with any of them.It suddenly takes hold of my bowl and tilts it into Gabbys bowl. A little but odd starring contest is held between them for a few seconds and then it walks away. I notice Gabby tensen in her seat and then she begings to discharge the aura of discomfort.I begin to fundle with my hands under the table. I keep looking around at people who are busy eating in silence and some who are done with their.. Food.~honestly, how are they consuming this!?I keep looking around till my gaze again falls on Desmond who is apperantly done with his meal and was resting majestically in his seat his metal dancing between his fingers. His gaze is glued to me. Goodness knows for how long he had been starring. He doesn't seem to car
I try to rise up with my blurred vision but i fall back to the ground. My whole head feels as though its been put in an oven. My hearing also drops.I look up and find the fartello standing above me growling deeply and loudly. It stands looking at me for a few seconds before it fly's away.Gabby and Tori rush to me "are you alright? " Gabby asks as they pull me to my feets. My head begins to spin and I crash back to the ground.They try to help me up again when suddenly Gabby let's go of my arm in what seems to be fear but Tori keeps her grip firm on my arm. I look up to where their eyes are glued and i find Desmond marching swiftly towards us.He takes hold of my arm and begins to pull. Tori dosen't let go of my arm till Gabby moves close to her and whispers something to her. Only then does she reluctantly let me go.Desmond keeps dragging me through the room on
I had stayed here about two minutes crying to my hearts content. Everywhere has began to get dark and I am still uncertain what my fate holds. I know exactly nothing in particular about this place.Why.. Why am I here?. God.. Did you really have to place this in my fate?."Sonia, are you there!? " I hear Gabbys voice call."Sonia!! " I hear Tori's voice call."I'm.. I'm here" I call out to them wiping my tears. Gabby and Tori appear from a corner."Oh God!. Thank God we found you. If not for Desmond we many have tolled the whole mansion without still finding you. " Gabby exclaims.They sit beside me. Gabby to my left and Tori to my right.. What does she mean 'if not for Desmond?'"What's wrong? " Tori asks me.Honestly, I don't understand this girl sometimes. One minute she is caring and another, she is sassy."Nothi

It's been a year since Desmond left. I'm staring out the plane's window listening to Trust In You by Lauren Daigle. After all, life has put me through, what else can I do than trust in God.It's been a year but my heart has never grown to love Desmond less. In fact, his departure had only made me realize how less meaning my life has without him.I'm on my way to London. I finally got admission into Imperial College. I wanted to attend a small school back home but trust my father to want big.I don't think staying around more English people would do me good as each one would remind me of how my Desmond is the very best.My dad just had to go choose the 5th best university in the United Kingdoms. He says he wants me out of Canada to help me forget the mansion but that place has been sculpted so deeply into me that not even a memory loss would wipe it off.&nbs
"But he asked me to give you this. "The doctor adds holding out a folded paper to me.I collect the paper with tears in my eyes and he gives me a comforting smile before walking away.I stare at my wristwatch and it reads 11:00 am.I missed him. My last chance of seeing him and I missed it.My phone containing all his details totally crashed and not backed up! Why Sonia, why?He... Desmond is gone. Gone to his home town and I'm here in Ontario Canada Left with only hopes to see him again someday!.I open the paper and it reads;*Hey, sorry about my wobbly writing. It's been a while I held a pen.If you're reading this, then I'm on my way to the airport and you're definitely shedding those precious tears of yours.I wish I could say this to you in person but time a

Love is all they fell for each other and;Finally, the day came.One Month After;Sonias POV;I rush out of my house as usual. It's become a habit to rush out of my house whenever I'm on my way to the hospital to visit Desmond.
Wow!I'm so sure a lot of you hate me by now cause of what happened to our Gabby, Ekene, and Tori.And I'm sure when Desmond died you hated me even more but I hope we're all good now😅.I could never kill my Desmond. Hell no😅🙈We're nearing the end of this beautiful book💃💃💋____/|\_____/|\_____/|\_____/|\____With bandage wrapped around her head, plasters on some parts of her face, and her right feet wrapped in a bandage as she'd hurt her ankle but didn't notice. Sonia is still seen smiling.It's been a week after they'd escaped the woods and Desmond is still in bed. The Smith and Daniel families have become close. Even Tori's grandmom had grown a bond with the families during the week.Sonia and Desmond are alone in the hospital room. The sun ray beautifying the room.
Authors Narrative;Jason thinks Sonia had spent too long in the I.C.U and decides it's time to see what's going on and who this 'him' is.He opens the door just in time to see Sonia raising a pair of scissors in the air ready to stab herself."Sonia! "He screams before running into the room and wraps his arms around his little sister to hinder her movements.His scream and reaction draws everyone into the room.Dana, Timothy, Tori's grandmom, the rest of Sonia's family, and Mrs. Daniel who's just found out it's her long-lost son who's laying 'dead' in the I.C.U."Sonia what's wrong with you!?" Jason screams as he struggles to keep Sonia in place."Desmond! "Mrs. Daniel cries as she spots her son on the bed."Leave me! He can't die! If he doesn't come to me, I'd go to him
I freeze as I stare at the doctor. Is there another language where that means 'he's fine?"W.. What? What do you mean couldn't save him!? "I scream."I'm sorry dear. Too many internal injuries. He lost a lot of blood and some serious damage was caused to some of his organs due to the punctures. " the doctor states.I watch nurses begin to exit the room and I stand facing the door. I suddenly begin to hear the voices that makeup silence as I walk into the room.I suddenly understand how light could transfigure into darkness in just a blink of an eye.I suddenly understand how one second is enough to destroy years of hard work.I suddenly understand that death has always been lurking in the shadows. Awaiting the perfect time to steal life.I suddenly understand the fact that life is not defined by t
I turn around in shock only to find a young man running towards me. I stare at the man a little closer and my jaw drops. Jason!"Sonia! "He screams picking me up in his arms."J.. Jason? "I question in disbelief."It... It really is you. " I state. Tracing about his face with my fingers. He's grown a beard."You've grown a beard. "I note."And a mustache seems to be coming along. "He adds with a bitter chuckle before pulling into another hug.We remain wrapped in this hug when I hear my name again."Sonia! "I look up and find Oscar. My second eldest brother walking slowly towards us like he's seen a ghost.Jason steps aside."Sonia! "He screams hugging me and I struggle to breathe."Y.. you you'r
I stand in panic and run a few steps towards the city noise. Maybe I can get some help, but on second thought, there's no way I'm doing that. What... What if something happens to Desmond.What if... What if Mader comes back? I run back to Desmond."Desmond? Come on open your eyes. "I beg with tears as I tap his face gently.He doesn't respond and I notice he isn't breathing."D... Desmond? "I call in fear.I feel about his neck with my fingers. Not knowing exactly how to but hoping to somehow find a pulse."Desmond! "I scream when he doesn't reply."Please Desmond open your eyes! "I scream in fear. He can't leave me. Not now, not ever, I can't be this close to a better life hopefully with him and then he'd leave me. He's been my strength for the past three years. It can't all go to waste!
