The first book on top of the pile had it’s name carved on the leather cover, painted with gold and designed with small gems that shines when the light hits them. At first, I found it hard to read the letter but the more I stare at them, the more I seem to get it. It reads, “The Helsings: Protector of the Kingdom of Doria…” I opened the book, and oh, it was empty. Empty. Like really empty! Confused, I began flipping the pages only to find nothing but an empty pages, a thick empty book.

There was another breeze. He watched the dust swirl about him as the heat rose up in invisible waves, but still, he could not feel it, just the intensity of his loneliness when he was a child.

The grainy sand hurt my knees kneeling on the ground; I knelt in the centre, covered in dust, wounds and blood, while the guards surrounded me, half in their beast form, ready to strike. Was I the enemy? I searched my mind for answers but couldn't find any. The environment seemed unfriendly, so I did the only logical thing. I ran. They chased me, and I pushed myself. I was confused. Why was I the enemy? What did I do? Fragments of memories reeled in my mind, but I was too afraid and confused to make sense of them.

At the same time, Jane looked at Brandon and said, “Why do you think I like Aspen so much? She had taken care of us so well. That’s the best proof!

The next time we crossed paths, we would be nothing but strangers. … [Extra Chapters] Sophie was six years old this year. Wearing her hair in twin pigtails, she skipped and hopped along the pavement, the butterfly bows on her hair ties bouncing up and down with every step. "Danielle! Danielle!" She threw herself into Danielle's arms as the latter crouched down to wipe the cookie crumbs from the corner of her mouth. "Slow down. What if you trip and fall?" "You'll always catch me!"

A stone table stood in the center. Something rested on it. A book. Luna sighed. Darius looked at her. "Absolutely not." "It's a book."
