"Mother? Is that you" I whispered. I have no idea where am I. I just found myself walking in total darkness.


"Amara..." I heard it again..

"Where are you mother?!" I screamed.

A large snake crawled to my feet and crawled back to the ground. I started walking even though I couldn't see what I was walking on.

Until I was being dazzled by a very strong light. I immediately blocked my hand to see what it was. What the fuck is that?




"Amara.. You've been looking for me for a long time, haven't you?" A woman laughingly said.



"Who the hell are you?! Stop hiding in light!" I annoyingly said. Then her dazzling light gradually disappeared. Which made me able to see her.



"Athena

"Athena.." I said while clenching my fist. "Glad that you recognize me.. even though this is first time you have seen me." She said with a playful smile on her face.



I let out the sword snake on my hand. I saw her bring out her shield. Where my mother's head was.

"GIVE ME MY MOTHER'S HEAD!" I screamed and hurriedly went to her to swing the sword. But she suddenly disappeared.


I was catching my breath due to extreme rage. I groaned. "ATHENAAAAAA!! STOP BEING A COWARD AND FACE ME!"


I felt someone's presence behind me. I turned around to check. My snake sword fell off the ground. My knees and hands were. trembling.

I can't move. No... Fucking hell no..

It was Athena. She was proudly holding her shield and her other hand was holding Sage's head.


"Look at your face.. There's a fear in your eyes.. Its fascinating Amara.." She laughed evilly.

My chest tightens. What is this feeling? I've never been this scared before. "What did you do to her!!!!" I screamed on the top of my lungs.

"SAGEEE!!"


I screamed and immediately sat up in bed.  It was just a dream? A nightmare? But how? As I scanned the whole place, I realized I wasnt on my room.

"Disgusting." I whispered when I saw a naked guy sleeping beside me. His hands and feet are both tied to the bed. He's the guy I met at the bar. Ofcourse I didnt let him to touch me.


I lazily picked up my clothes on the floor and went to the bathroom. As I looked at my reflection in the mirror. I suddenly remembered that dream, with Athena.



Why Sage? why her? The lifeless image of Sage suddenly flashed in my eyes. I closed my eyes tightly. Along with the feeling of tightness in my chest. What the fuck is this feeling?


I opened my eyes. I studied my reflection in the mirror. I looked at the lower part of my breast. This mark.. Its more like a tattoo. An image of an unknown woman was imprinted in my skin.


I have had this since the day I sprang out from my mother's womb. My fingers traced the my mark.







"Hey! Are you there? Untie me now!"
