"She screamed through the night," the personal maid whispered, fear trembling in her voice. "I was petrified he might have finished her already. How would I explain her death on the wedding day to her family?" The head maid, however, remained unfazed. "Lord Cyprian knows better than to see his bride before the ceremony. Rest easy, she's safe until tomorrow night." Then, hell broke loose in her head. __________ Pamela, a 26-year-old with sickle cell, dreamt of adventure.
