When her awareness returned, she found herself in a dimly lit corridor, the scent of damp earth and wildflowers filling the air. The familiar surroundings sent a jolt of recognition through her.But the dream wrapped around her like a warm blanket, dulling her senses.Lily stepped closer, a sinister smile playing on her lips. “Just relax, Bloom. Drift into this happiness. You’re a princess, living in a kingdom where love reigns. You have everything you need.”As the vision of her family materialized before her, Bloom felt the warmth of their embrace. Their smiles were radiant, but beneath that joy lay a darkness she couldn’t shake. “I need to wake up!” she protested, struggling a

    Bloom lay in her bed, her thoughts swirling as she drifted into a restless sleep. The weight of her recent confrontations pressed down on her, but as twilight deepened, she found herself slipping into a familiar dream, a dream she had often had, yet tonight, it felt different, more vivid.She stood in a lush garden, sunlight filtering through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground. The air was sweet with the scent of blooming flowers, an intoxicating fragrance that filled her senses. For a moment, she felt at peace, the burdens of her reality fading away.And then she saw him, Damon. He emerged from the shadows of the garden, his presence commanding and magnetic. Her heart raced as she watched him approach, his dark eyes locking onto hers with an intensity that sent shivers down her spine.“Bloom,” he called softly, his voice a smooth balm in the warm air. “You came.”“I’ve always been here,” she replied, her voice echoing in the tranquil atmosphere. The warmth of his gaze

    “Exactly,” he replied, stepping even closer, his voice dropping to a sultry whisper. “Help me forget about Bloom for a while. You and I together... it could help us both.”Lily considered the offer, a thrill of excitement sparking within her. She remembered their secret rendezvous at the mountain peak, where they had shared not just kisses under the stars but deep, intense pleasures that still lingered in her memory when her father was still an angel and she was the most cherished beauty of the heaven until Rhea appeared. “You want to?”“Why not?” he said, his gaze locked on hers, desire flickering in his eyes. “Let’s forget our troubles, just for one night.”“Very well,” she replied, her voice low and inviting.“Deal,” Samuel said, a hint of satisfaction creeping into his voice.As they slipped back to Lily’s villa, a sense of exhilaration enveloped them. Once inside, the atmosphere shifted. Samuel’s gaze roamed over her, the tension crackling between them as he stepped closer.“Do yo

    Lily stepped out vanish in the night life of the city, her sharp gaze scanning the crowd for Samuel.Samuel was a tool she could use, and she had every intention of wielding that tool to her advantage.Lily's heart raced with excitement as she followed him through the streets of the city. Samuel walked with purpose, his eyes darting as if he were being hunted. She could sense the tension radiating from him and felt a thrill at the thought of uncovering whatever secrets he was hiding.As they reached a quieter alley, Samuel paused, leaning against a brick wall, trying to blend into the shadows. Lily took a moment to observe him from a distance, a predatory smile creeping across her lips. He looked out of place, just a young man caught in a world far too large for him“What are you doing here, Lily?” he asked, trying to mask the surprise in his voice with irritation.She leaned against the wall, crossing her arms casually. “Just enjoying the evening air. But you, Samuel? You seem... anxiou

    Jenna gasped, her vision blurring as Lily continued to draw blood. She could feel her strength waning, her knees growing weak beneath her. The world around her began to spin.“Just a bit more,” Lily murmured, her voice dripping with satisfaction. “You’re doing so well.”But as Lily drank, Jenna felt herself slipping away, the edges of her consciousness blurring. A part of her wanted to resist, to push Lily away, but the bond that had been forged between them made it impossible. Instead, she surrendered.Jenna’s heartbeat slowed, her breath shallow. Just as she felt she might faint, Lily finally released her grip, pulling back with a satisfied sigh.Blood trickled from the bite mark on her neck, a tangible reminder of the bond that had just been sealed. She felt weak, almost faint, but there was a lingering warmth in her veins, a strength that now pulsed alongside the remnants of her fear.“You did beautifully, you will be rewarded” Lily praised, brushing a thumb over Jenna’s jaw, her t

    “Samuel…?” she whispered.He frowned. “What are you doing here?”Jenna blinked rapidly, as if waking from a dream. “I… I don’t know. I saw you. And her. And then… I felt strange.”Samuel’s expression didn’t change. “Go home, Jenna.”She swallowed hard. “Are you… working with her?”“Go home.”Jenna flinched at the coldness in his voice and hurried away, shaken. Samuel watched her leave, then looked back toward the elevator.Jenna drove out of the parking lot still shaken by what she had seen. She tried to convince herself she had imagined it. But halfway down the road, something made her glance at the rear‑view mirror.Lily was sitting in the back seat.Jenna’s breath caught in her throat. She slammed her foot on the brake, the car jerking violently. “How ? You weren’t”Lily smiled, calm and unbothered. “You saw something you shouldn’t have.”Jenna’s voice shook. “What are you?”Lily leaned forward, her eyes glowing faintly. “Someone you will listen to for the rest of your life.”Jenna

    Damon's POV: I could not understand what I had seen. The girl by the river. The one with the green eyes and the fire‑bright hair. I had only ever seen Rhea in dreams.
