Ann was angry but her greatest joy would take place at the break of dawn. She spared one last glance at the princess' door, swiftly moving to her room without delay."Akeelah stop hitting the door and just come in like you usually do," Levi spoke in his husky voice. When the banging refused to stop, he got up to see who was at the door but before he opened the door, a group of men in black clothing broke in.
