I was so relaxed in the warm bath. The scent is always so stress relieving. "My Lady, I'm done." Clara said. "Aww, yes."I smiled. I carefully stepped out of the bath and put on my night gown. I walked over and laid in my bed. "Goodnight Clara..." I mumbled. Clara replied, "Yes, goodnight, My Lady."
Princess Astrid's Dream:
It was dark, and it was cold. No light, nothing. But I heard something. It was someone speaking to me. "Astrid, where are you, my Bond mate?",cried the voice. I didn't recognize it. Bond mate? I'm not anyone's bond mate. I stood up, and walked towards the voice. Then, I got blinded by a light. Afterwards, I ended up at one of the farms that were attacked by the unknown beast. "Hello?",I cried. It was quiet, too quiet. I continued walking and saw the words laid out in blood on the ground, they were the words that were said to me in the darkness by an unknown voice. "Where are you? Who are you?", I shouted. I was furious, the person who did this wants to find me. Why? "Well... Well... Well... I guess I found you, Princess." ,shouted the voice.
The Early Morning:
"Ahhh!", I screamed. Waking up from that horrible nightmare. My room was dark and cold just like that dark place. I looked around the room and saw nothing. Then I felt something gently touch my feet. I pulled them up to my body and started to tremble.
"I told you that I found you." ,Mocked the voice. My heartbeat was beating so fast that I thought I would have a heart attack. I confronted the voice and said, "Who are you? And what do you want from me!?!"
The voice giggled, "I just want to be with my bond mate, Princess." The voice jumped on my bed, standing over my body. I started to panic, am I really about to cry, I'm so scared. "Guards!!! Anyone!!!! Help me!!!! Please!!!" ,with the cry of my shaky voice. The guards came rushing in to see why I cried for help. When they came in, the voice ran to the window and jumped through it, shattering it into bits and pieces. One of the guards ran to the window and looked out, while the rest came to me. "Your Majesty, are you hurt?" ,asked one of the guards. I couldn't speak, my eyes were glued to the window. "My lady? Are you alright? Your shaking terribly!" ,said Clara. She sounded very concerned and worried. The guards lit the candles in the room, so they could see better. "Ahhh!" ,screamed Clara. I jolted my head to look at her and she pointed to the floor. There were dead farm animals and blood all over the floor. I gasped. I have never felt so afraid before. Did the voice come from the beast that did this? Is the voice the beast that terrorized my people in one of the villages? Can there be a connection? I jumped out of bed, and tried to show no fear, as I walked out of my room. "Clean up this mess at once. May nobody know of this incident." ,I demanded. I walked to my father's study room, to see if I can piece things together.
