Alex POV How long has it been since I last slept well? Since when was the last time that I didn’t have a nightmare?

It's real, looking exactly like the slip belonging to the girl on the train, although this one signifies something far more important. "A black slip?" I gape at him, astonished. "You know the Alpha?" The slip allows a person to access all levels of the palace, which according to the girls on the train, means being able to meet the Alpha. I was told only the Alpha himself or his close confidants can hand them out.

Juuust great. Veronica the Viper had just walked in. With a smirk on her face it appeared. Veronica, better known as Roni, was the beloved little sister of the King family. As the only girl, she was spoiled absolutely rotten and had a talent for manipulating people to get what she wanted. She was known as "The Viper" because all she cared for in her life was her status and image as a King mem'ber and she truly didn't care about anyone 'below' her status and would happily just shallow them whole to get them out of her way.

-All you have to worry about is looking beautiful at our wedding. I broke free from his grip and ran away, the being was too fast and managed to catch up with me. It immobilized my body and made me look at it. -No...no... -Stop fighting, you're only delaying the inevitable. My eyes focused on his gaze. I tried to break free but my face started to move on its own and my lips moved closer to his. I woke up just before I kissed him and hugged my mother for calling me. -You've been so sleepy lately, you're waking up later every day.

I fix my mouth to protest his leaving, but nothing comes out. I watch his retreating form leave the room as my eyes grow too heavy to keep open. The sleepiness soon takes over and I find myself dissolving into the darkness where the demons of my past reside.
