This book is almost finished, then I'll be taking a break from writing. So stay tuned for that. Sorry for such a long break, it's just I had immense writer's block for some reason. Onto the story!!
"You need to run, now!", Damian says.
"No, I'm not leaving you!"
My body shutters, as my eyes widen, rousing me from my slumber. Nightmares. I should have known they would be subsequent. Perhaps the library would help.
I quickly get out of bed and put on a black silk robe and matching slippers. I gradually grab a candle from the desk, careful not to wake my husband or the maids and head to the library. My eyes wander over the shelves of spell books, taking in their titles and contents.

"It's for my people. The kingdom won't save itself, right?"

"The kingdom won't save itself, this is the only way to bring a truce [peace].", Damian says, curling towards me with a smirk, as my hand folds into his.
