Chapter 11: Something Unexpected
Anaya’s P.O.V:
It was nearly ten at night when the elevator doors to Lancelot’s office dinged open and he stepped into the room, looking utterly exhausted and ready to pass out.
“Mr. Eustis?” I ran out of my cabin and reached him just in time to catch him before he collapsed on the ground. “Lancelot!”
“I d-don’t need help!” He fought against my hold on him as he stood up on shaky legs. “Book me a hotel for tonight, now!” He snapped at me as he walked towards his desk. “Where’s the diary I gave you?”
“The diary?” I asked him dumbfounded. He couldn’t possibly be thinking about that damned diary at a time like this? “Are you sure you don’t want to rest for a little while?”
“Do not tell me what I should and shouldn’t be doing Ms. Johnson. Get that di

Chapter 12: Revelation Anaya's P.O.V:The feeling that I'd messed with something I shouldn't have finally set in as the temperature in the room kept dropping enough to freeze.Lancelot's back was still turned to me, and although I couldn't see his face, I had a feeling it wasn't going to be anything good. The women all around the room seemed to be frozen in place enthralled as they kept staring at his face, their eyes wide and mouth wide open as they looked at Lancelot. And then suddenly, their eyes changed, becoming void of any emotion.Then I heard Lancelot speak, in a voice I've never heard before. A voice so cold it made me shiver all over again."Leave this room and forget you came here today. You will come again when called, if and when I need you."And then, as if in a trance all fifteen of them walked out in perfect synchronization, their eyes dull like they weren't even human but robots on

Chapter 13: Clam Before the StormAnaya’s P.O.V:“What’s a Scribt?”I’ve never heard the word before, but I knew it couldn’t be anything good. And by the way Mary was looking at the floor; I knew it was something awful. “Mary?” I asked again, this time with a firmer voice.“It’s like a P.A of sorts. We keep track of the women they’ve slept with, make sure no woman is repeated and cover up after them so no one finds out about them.”I narrowed my eyes at her, “So basically, we’re their servants.”Mary winced at my tone by nodded unwillingly. She knew I was right. There was no other word for it, we were pretty much going to be slaving for them. “Do I have a choice in this?”“You do.” Mary turned towards me. “You can choose to walk away, but if you do that then your memories will be era

Chapter 14: Truth Amid the MythsAnaya’s P.O.V:“Mum, have you ever heard the word Incubus before?”Two hours after Martin had dropped me off home, I’ve had a hot shower to clear my mind, had the biggest dinner of my life- mostly because I wouldn’t be able to enjoy mom’s cooking for a month- and then I’d shad to tell my mom that I’d be off to distant lands for a month, slaving for the Prince while he extended his kingdom…quite literally. Mom hadn’t taken it well, as I’d expected and I’d had to convince her that I’d be okay and I wasn’t going there on my own, although I wasn’t that convinced of my own words. That is why I was up packing a huge suitcase with my mom at two in the morning.Mom froze midway while folding a dress she was convinced I’d need for the inauguration party. It was kinda old but it was gorgeous and it was a

Chapter 15: Hidden desiresLancelot’s P.O.V:Anaya looked from the plate her mother, Samantha Johnson, had given me and back up to my face and repeated the process a few times before she gave me a purely evil look, as if I’d just murdered her pet hamster.I took a portion of the pancake into the fork and held it out to her. “Want some?” I asked, raising an eyebrow, to which Samantha burst out laughing and Anaya’s jaw hit the floor.“Yes Anaya,” her mother said in between chuckles. “Want some?”She closed her mouth and glared at her mother. “Yes, I’d like to have my own breakfast please.”I shrugged and put that forkful of pancake into my mouth while Samantha placed some more pancakes into another plate and drizzled it with maple syrup. Anaya took the only available seat beside me and placed her handbag on top of the counter.

Chapter 16: DesertedLancelot’s P.O.V:I was jealous, okay? I couldn’t watch you sleep with one woman after another and I couldn’t stand the fact that I was the one who had to call and make arrangements for you two to fuck when all I wanted to do was strangle the life out of you both!Her words rang in my head as I licked her taste off my lips. I’d intentionally sucked some of her energy, just to show her how dangerous I could be, but as a result, I now had her taste in my tongue and her essence in my blood.She tasted of strawberries and mint with a hint of spice...chilies? Simple and sweet with a bite, just like her personality.I clenched my hands on the steering wheel, having already started driving ten minutes ago with Anna a silent presence beside me. It wasn’t just sweet and simple, it was also very addictive. I could feel her energy inside me, her life force. Incubi ar

Chapter 17: A Sudden Turn of EventsAnaya’s P.O.V:We reached Reefwood an hour later than the intended time. Lance and I had stopped talking completely and I felt like hitting myself on the head for bringing this upon myself.Why couldn’t I have just lied and made up some story? I could’ve easily told him I’m a bit of a feminist, which is why I didn’t like the way he was treating other women? Oh noooo, I just had to go ahead and tell him how I really felt!“You worry too much about everything. Stop thinking and focus on the task at hand.” Lancelot’s cool, controlled voice rubbed me in the wrong direction.“Oh, yeah? What’s that?” it came out harsher than I’d expected and I’d also forgotten the fact that he was my boss.But Lancelot didn’t scold me for that. He simply ignored my reaction and spoke like I hadn’t said a th

Chapter 18: DifferencesAnaya’s P.O.V:“Lancelot Eustis sure lives up to his reputation, doesn’t he?” Keith mused as we watched Lance and Trevina walk away.“He’s not that bad…just-““Cranky?” he asked. “Don’t get defensive over them Anna, they don’t deserve it.”“Why do you say that?” I asked as Keith led me to the nearest door that happened to be the ground floor restaurant.“You know who they are and what they feed on, so there’s no need to ask.” Keith deliberately lowered his voice so no one else could hear us. Since the hotel hadn’t been decorated yet, this was the only restaurant open right and all the staff members had their meals here.“I understand that, Keith and I’m not being defensive. I can never understand or accept how they ‘feed’ but it’

Chapter 19: Ancient ArtificesLancelot’s P.O.V:The call came just as I was about to head out to work. A mental ‘knock’ asking for permission to enter my mind. Since we were dimensions apart, it was the only way of communication. So I locked the door, sat down on my bed, and closed my eyes, concentrating on the fine fabric that was the link to the other mind. It didn’t take long to reach the other end.“Lance?”I opened my eyes to the darkness of the void. The darkness was everywhere, spread in every direction, but that didn’t bother me. The darkness wasn’t claustrophobic as was known to be predominant in Shadowland, the incomplete direction that had never had a chance to form because the makers had died halfway through making it. The most important fact was that the inhabitants in this space were illuminated from within so we could see each other.“Miaka.&rdquo
