HADEON'S POV:I stare at her sleeping form, she had almost looked relieved to see me when I entered. I had managed to find this little town only a little over an hour before I had found her. I had put her to sleep when she starting getting hysterical and screaming at me, though muffled due to the cloth acting as a gag. Her dark hair sprawled onto the white pillow creating a beautiful contrast that makes my little angel stand out all the more. Her tear stained cheeks, her plump, dry lips, her slightly knotted hair, despite that, she still took my breath away.What is it about her that has formed such a strong desire to take root within my soul? I continue to stare at her, unable to comprehend what makes her so different? Why? Of all the Women out there, why her? Sure she is more beautiful than any woman I have ever laid eyes upon and yet, beauty has never had such an affect upon me. I thought I was immune to the charms and flirtations of that partic

HADEON'S POV:Twinkling stars sparkle in the night like scattered diamonds. The moon is full, glowing brightly, more brightly then I have ever seen before. I am sat upon the porch of my small home staring up at them. My mother is inside preparing dinner, which will most likely be another cabbage stew. We've been eating that for weeks now due to our lack of income. My father is still out working, he'll be home soon hopefully. I can hear my little sister singing softly from our bedroom, she sounds like an angel. Everything seems calm and tranquil.A shout echoes through the air as I see my father running quickly from the forest, he looks terrified."HADEON GET INSIDE NOW!!"He shouts, I scramble quickly to my feet just as he approaches and grabs my arm, dragging me into the cottage. Frightened I follow him quickly. He barges through the door, stumbling as he goes. Only then do I realise he's covered in blood. My mother screams a

HADEON'S POV:Rage. That's all I feel. Pure, furnacing, rage."Ahhhhhhhhhh!!"I screamed, letting it all out. Or at least I had hoped it would relieve me of some of the tension weighing on my body. On my soul. She is gone."GONE!!"I am livid, she dared to escape from my clutches. That stupid witch had assisted her in her escape. I sensed her using her powers in the castle and found her exiting a hidden door behind a hideous tapestry. No matter, I've had her locked up and tormented now for hours on end. I've sent my men to find my little kitten and bring her back to me alive. Then when she returns she can witness what happens to those who dare to disobey me, that witch will be used as an example that will embed itself into her mind, I'll make sure of it.A loud knock echoes the throne room."Enter!"A soldier enters through quietly, each step is forced and hesitant. His fear mixes ba

ANGELINA'S POV:As I exited the hole, I was met with little brightly coloured birds fluttering past me. I searched my surroundings keenly, listening quietly for any sign of anything that might be a threat. Yet the only sounds to reach my ears, were the chirps of the birds and the thundering roar of the waterfall. I was about to undress out of my nightgown, which was once a pure white, is stained with dirt and blood. Blood from where I must've cut myself from all the constant stumbling I managed to accomplish in my escape. There was a slight tear around the area where the blood was seeping through, I lifted my dress to inspect and found a small but deep gash had cut into my left hip.Ignoring the slight sting it gave me, I lifted my nightdress over my body and folded it neatly on the ground.
