UNKNOWN POVI hear the rogue alarm go off and it couldn't have been done with better timing; I use this time to have a look at the unused wing and which rooms would be best to use, but I make sure I don't disturb the dust as I move throughout the wing. I found three rooms that were good for what I wanted near the back garden. I need to get into contact with that sedative male again.I need four canisters of the sedative he made for Angus, but in gas form, three set up with spray releases and the fourth set up as a handheld gasser. Then I can use the three spray release canisters in the rooms and I can set up a trigger system so as someone enters the room, they will go off and knock out whoever it is. The fourth handheld canister I can use to re-enforce the sedative if needed until I am ready for her to wake up.I head back to my room at the barracks to get together everything I needed to set this trap. I overheard the queen and the prince talking about 'The Punishment' for the rogues

SERAPHINA POVHe hesitates for a little bit longer. I whimper in his arms as the tears I was holding back finally start to fall. I then feel his fangs sink slowly into my neck. He holds himself still before he retracts his fangs and takes two small pulls. He then swipes his tongue over my skin, sealing his bite. He puts his head back into the cruck of my neck.I feel as his body tries to reject the blood, but I know what he had taken wasn't even enough to get to his stomach before it was absorbed into his bloodstream. It isn't long before his breathing evens out and I can feel that he has fallen into sleep. I allow myself to relax and join him in sleep shortly after.I am awoken a little later by a soft knock on the door. I move slightly and lift my hand, signalling the female in the doorway to enter. It isn't long before I see Teresa standing on the other side of the bed."Can I?" she whispers"Of course, he woke up and now he is actually sleeping.""His temperature has increased. It

CHARLOTTE POVI wake up wrapped tightly in Stefan's arms. I am still shocked that someone would poison my father. I try to move so I can go to the bathroom, but Stefan tightens his arms even more and whispers."And where do you think you are going, Angel?""Well, I was going to go to the bathroom as your little devils are bouncing on my bladder..."He laughs as he lets me go. I get out of bed and practically run to the bathroom, making him laugh even more.Once I am finished, I go and climb back into bed with him. He pulls me tight to his body and kisses me with barely controlled passion and dominance. In one move, he rolls us over so I am underneath him and he slides inside me. We both let out a low growl as the pleasure runs through us. He builds the pleasure more and more. Just as I shatter and he releases inside me, my phone goes off with Chrysta's message tone. I smile as Stefan sighs,"I miss being at home... At least then we don't get all these interruptions!" "Stefan, we are

CALEB/DOMINIC POVI try to find my way through the darkness. I have been going crazy. I haven't been able to talk to Dominic for some time and I wonder what is going on, as he has never blocked me out like this. He has never sent me into the darkness and kept me there. Just as I have never knowingly done that to him, we have always had an understanding between us, even when we were hunting and when we found her our mate... I then see a small sliver of light. It starts low and then gets brighter and brighter. Wanting to be out of the darkness, I blindly move into it. I begin to stir as I feel the bed I seem to be laying on dips and I hear a sweet female's soft voice, "Go back to sleep, my King. You need the rest."Then it hits me 'The Need' I feel so thirsty I need to feed, I need blood, I turn over, wrap her in my arms whispering along her neck allowing my fangs to lengthen, not really caring if I scare her or not,"No, I don't need rest. I need you."I don't think I just react as I

STEFAN POV"Please Stefan, wake up! Stefan, wake up!! Stefan. Please WAKE UP!!"I slowly come out of the darkness feeling little soft hands shaking me and hearing the soft words surrounded by sobs of a young female's voice. I open my eyes and as they slowly focus; I realise it is young Chrysta."Stefan? How did we get here? Where are we?"She sounds so confused. It's a little foggy and I have one hell of a headache, but I slowly remember the message, the search with Charlotte, Michael and Owen and then the gas. I put my hand on Chrysta's cheek."Chrysta?? Are you okay? Are you hurt?""Stefan, I have a sore head, but other than that, I seem to be fine. Where are we?""Don't you know?""No! Stefan? How did we get here?""Come on Chrysta! Don't play around. How could you not know where we are? We came looking for you. You sent Charlotte a message saying you were lost." I look around the room,"No Stefan, honestly I don't know, the last thing I remember is walking down one of the halls in
