ATHENA'S POVMy eye lids fluttered open as I gained my consciousness back. It felt as if I had been out for long, but there was no way I could find out.I guess the old man must be really tricky. Since he stays in a place like this, obviously, he was someone we ought to be wary of.It meant he could have sent Daniel out to get him an apple because he wanted to capture me.By the way, where was I? Right there, I realized that there was too much heat where I was, and when I tried to sit up, my head hit something wooden.I became alert, and used my hands to feel my surrounding. No matter how far my hands wanted to reach, there was always a wooden covering, restricting them like I was placed in a box.Hold on. Could it be that I was placed in a coffin? A gasp of shock escaped my mouth as I used my hands to trace the shape and confirmed that I was truly in a coffin.Fear gripped me and it became a bit difficult to breathe. I wondered if he has buried me deep into the ground.Oh, no. That m

ATHENA'S POVI looked around in fear, and tried to move away as fast as I could, probably I could find a place to hide, but it felt as if each place I turned to, the monster was still coming from that angle.“Shit! What do I do?” I muttered under my breath, feeling like my heart was going to jump out of my chest.Then I heard a loud cackle again from Naamah. She seemed to derive pleasure from my fear, and even as much as I tried to overcome the fear, and think it wasn't real, it was all futile.“Help! Daniel, help me!” I called out to him, but Naamah's cackle only increased more, and it became even more difficult to think that Daniel would be able to help me this time.Soon, I felt a cold chill around me, like a creature who I wasn't noticing it's presence was breathing cold breath on me.“Please let me go.” I pleaded, beginning to lose hopes that I would make it out of here.“You really are something, Athena. Didn't you know that you should be expecting things like this in a journey

OCTAVIA'S POV.My eyes flew open and my heart suddenly gained wings. I found that I couldn't bring myself to close my mouth as I grabbed my phone and shot up into a sitting position.Why had he written it in capital letters? Did he…Did he…My hand flew to my mouth and my heart was pricking with the combination of fear and guilt. He didn't know what I was doing, did he?My heart raced hard and my lips went dry. I started to type;*Went to get something…*I erased it. My fingers were trembling too hard, and writing was a hassle. I hadn't even confirm if he had discovered my unfaithful acts, but I was trembling, and shaking like a leaf. *Had to see someone…*Once more, it was erased. *Is something the problem?*"No, no..." I grunted, unable to send a message. Immediately I swung my feet off the bed, dropping my phone on the bedside table, and picking up my shirt with trembling hands. Leaving was the right thing to do, not texting him back. If anything happened and he happens to discov

ATHENA’S POVJust as those claws had grabbed me, Daniel grabbed me back and a part of my cloth tore open.“Come on, we’re almost at the barrier. Run!” Daniel urged and I tried to run as fast as I could even when my legs almost went frozen from the touch of the monster or whatever it was that grabbed me.“What barrier?” I asked out of curiosity.“It’s a barrier that keeps mystical and monstrous creatures from disturbing whatever we are here for.”“Does it mean we’re close to our destination?” I asked as I ran with my all.“More like we’ve gotten there.” Daniel spoke and then he halted.I almost tripped because he didn’t alert me but I was interrupted by a loud growl before I could speak about that offense.“Now, we’re safe.” Daniel said softly and I let out a sigh of relief.I dropped down on the ground and smiled happily. It meant that I was going to leave here, with my sight. It would be easier to escape from any scary thing with my sight back.“I’m so glad we made it, Athena.” Danie

ATHENA’S POVI was awed by his beauty and porcelain face. His smile was so charming that I could fall for him in one heartbeat and the curiosity in his eyes made him look innocent and sweet. His physique was what most girls would certainly fall for.Now, I understood why those girls even had to bully a blind girl like me all because he looked so handsome. “Athena, can you see properly?” He asked, looking at me, out of concern.I fluttered my eyes like I was bringing myself back to reality, and I moistened my lips.“Yeah… yeah, I can see properly. So, this is you.” I smiled, unable to get my eyes off him.Daniel blushed and itched his neck as he avoided eye contact with me.“I guess. So, how do you feel as you’ve gotten your eyesight?” He asked with a smile on his face.“I feel great!” I raised my voice high enough and I screamed in excitement.It felt as if everything was just getting to me. I could finally see and now that I see, the world looks really beautiful. I twirled around an
