I looked around and noticed that I was in a dark place. Fear and anxiety surged through me immediately. I gasped as I started running, praying I would find myself in a well-lit area.
"Mum! Dad!" I called out, increasing my pace.
I suddenly found myself in a brightly lit area and a smile spread across my lips. My eyes widened when I saw two people on their knees, and they appeared to be my biological parents.
"Mum…" I whispered as I walked closer, wondering why they looked so distressed. I noticed a man crying, holding her hand, and I felt the aura he emitted.
"Father..." I said softly, walking faster.
Just as I was about to call out to them, a man with an axe appeared before them and chopped off their heads, which fell to the ground and rolled.
I yelled, covering my open and trembling mouth with my hands as tears slowly streamed down my face.
"Mum! Dad!" I cried out as I ran towards them. I wanted to confront the man. Why would he kill them right in front of me? What did they do?
As I was almost reaching them, I slipped and fell to the floor, gasping and quickly opening my eyes.
I realized that I was in my room and everything was bright. It was already morning.
I sighed deeply and placed my hand on my racing chest.
"It was just a dream after all," I whispered.
I remembered the dream again and felt a deep sense of hurt. Tears were already welling up in my eyes and I tried hard to hold them back. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
"Mum…" I whispered, my voice cracking.
"Dad... I will find out who did that to you. That dream is definitely telling me something. Someone killed both of you and I promise to uncover the truth," I swore, jumping to my feet.
I went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth, took a shower, and then got dressed. I wore a dress and walked to the door.
When I opened it, I met a maid ready to knock. On her raised left hand was a tray of food.
"It's time for your breakfast," she said softly.
"You can keep it, I'm not eating now. I would rather eat later," I replied, trying to leave, but her soft voice stopped me.
"Please, you should eat... I beg you."
I turned to her and furrowed my brow. "And why do you insist that I eat? It's not something you should force."
"No, please. I'm not forcing you," she said, shaking her head. "The Lycan King says that whoever brings the food for the Luna must make sure she eats and report back to him."
I looked down and smiled bashfully. "I can't believe he is doing this. Anyway, bring it in. I will eat now since that's what he wants."
She nodded and we both walked in. I sat down on the chair and she placed the tray on the table in front of me. When I checked, there were a few slices of bread, a cup of hot milk, and scrambled eggs.
I ate a few pieces of bread, drank a little milk, and took just two bites of the scrambled eggs.
I stood up, nodding my head. "It was nice, thank you."
"Wait, please. Don't tell me you're done eating?" she asked, leaning closer.
"Yes. Is there a problem?" I asked.
She swallowed hard. "King Oregon says you need to finish your food, and that we should force you if you don't."
I chuckled and nodded my head, then sat back down and continued eating. "Are you happy now?"
"Yes, thank you," she replied.
I finished everything and stood up. "I should leave now," I said, walking towards the door.
"You can go, you don't have to worry. I will clean the table and take the dishes away now," she said.
"Okay. Oh, can you keep this away from King Oregon?" I asked, and she raised her eyebrows.
"What is it?" she asked.
"Don't tell him that I went out," I said.
She chuckled and waved her hand in front of my face. "You don't have to worry, I'll just tell him that you ate well."
"Good, bye," I said.
"Goodbye!" she chuckled, waving back.
I went to Laura's bedroom and knocked on the door. She opened it a moment later and smirked when she saw me standing by the open door.
"I've been expecting you," she whispered, then turned away and walked back into the room. "What took you so long?"
"I need the trainer as soon as possible," I whispered, entering and shutting the door behind me.
She chuckled and furrowed her brow. "You want him now? I thought you were against the idea before."
"I was never against the idea," I defended. "I was just angry, but I'm over it. I don't care anymore. I just want to be trained by a capable trainer."
"Well, as you wish. So, when do you want him? How soon?" she questioned, and I swallowed heavily.
"Can you bring him in today?" I asked.
"Hmm... You're really filled with enthusiasm for this," she said, sitting down on a chair.
"I won't deny that," I whispered, standing in front of her.
"I'll give him a call today so that you can see him tonight. Both of you can start your work tomorrow immediately," she said.
"Thank you," I smiled.
She chuckled and shook her head. "Don't thank me yet. I just hope the plan goes well."
"I hope so too," I whispered, biting my bottom lip.
"You can go now," she said, and I nodded my head. But before I walked away, I turned my head, looking around.
"Are you looking for someone?" she asked, smirking.
"What?" I whispered. "No, I'm not."
"Anyway, Isabella isn't here anymore. She moved," she said, but I hurried out of the room.
"Why is she telling me that?" I whispered, scratching my head. "I didn't even ask."
Suddenly, I smiled and nodded my head. "I'm glad she moved though!" I whispered to myself, almost screaming with excitement.
