Novel & Cerita Disney Timekeeper

Whatever the reason was that brought me to Lucien, none of it mattered anymore. … Back home, I started preparing dinner. It would be our last meal together, so I took my time. When the final dish was set on the table, I placed the official mate-bond termination certificate right on the desk in his study, where he’d be sure to see it. Lucien still wasn’t home. I checked the time. If I waited any longer, I’d miss my flight. I called him again and again, but no one picked up. Just as I was about to hang up, an unknown number lit up on my screen.

I could not tell, but then the man appeared before me, and he looked as he had the last time I had seen him. "Are you sure you want to forge ahead, Dreamwalker?" he asked, and I could not speak to respond. I tried to speak, but the words wouldn’t come out. I wouldn't give up, though. So I kept at it until the words came out. "Are you the Dark?" I asked him, and he smiled. "I am the Timekeeper, " he said, telling me he isn't the dark. "Although you have embraced the Dark of Acquillonia yourself, I will implore you to beware because it has the Power to corrupt," he said, and I understood what he meant by it.

“You stayed steady. You didn’t shift. Everything else was sliding and you were still… you.” Mercy’s voice cut in, quieter now. “Because you make time angry.” I stared at her. Mercy met my gaze. “Time likes flow. It likes inevitability. It likes history to happen in the order it expects. Anchors disrupt it. People like you make it work harder to keep its ledger balanced.” The word ledger sat wrong in my mouth. I understood war accounts. Losses. Numbers. But time as bookkeeping was a thought that made me feel suddenly small.

It is all about the rhythm. "You're becoming a fine A****n, my fiery little hellcat," Braxius teases me when I can fend off his attack and un-sword him like he's shown me. I shrug and smile at his compliment. It has been easier to talk with him these days, and he's really trying to get to know me. He's even asked around if anyone has seen or heard about my little sister Meena. I don't know what happened to my Irish twin after getting sucked through time on the fairy hill. I've been praying she has escaped my fate in being stuck in an ancient time and place!

It seems to cool the burning heat that still swirls deep within my stomach. Time glances at me, raising an eyebrow. “Disappointment.” “This wasn’t meant to happen. Just because I’ve seen a few flashbacks to your old life, doesn’t mean that I can trust you. It doesn’t mean that I should stray from my initial plans,” I comment, leaning my head against the wall in defeat. Time frowns as he falls into his seat, looking at me curiously. “Initial plans? You’ve had plans this entire time?” he questions. He doesn’t look offended, just curious. I shrug mindlessly. If waiting this out until I can get back to the current time to find my brothers is a plan, then so be it.

I'm worried about Carter who has been nothing, but a kind and a good friend to me from beginning. Yep, that's right! These three days I had kept myself busy. I had made some progress on the wormhole machine. I couldn't risk anyone knowing, so I strictly ordered the guards and the maids to knock before entering the room and only come in if necessary. I was always cooped up in the room working, that I forgot to eat at times. Ada used to come in and remind me, but I insisted I wasn't hungry. She used to sigh and keep the food on the table before leaving. The guards stood outside the door all the damn time. It wasn't necessary cause I wasn't planning on running, not yet.

"The countdown on my interface isn't just ticking backward anymore—it’s skipping! Look!" Vikram glanced down at the digital display on his wrist unit while maintaining his stride. The numbers were a chaotic, flickering mess of corrupted code, rapidly flashing through impossible configurations before locking onto a terrifying reality: 13:00:28... 13:00:19... 13:00:11... Time wasn't merely running out; it was collapsing inward, drawing the physical structure of Shimla along with it.
