“We have to keep moving, here hold my hand.” Caleb reached out and grabbed my hand tightly.
We were moving gradually around the corners of the woods to get a better view of the area. I
kept counting my steps in my head to keep up. If the dogs were getting close, that meant we were

The guard dogs I’ve seen around the castle were vicious and relentless. Nothing to be played
around with. The dogs were highly trained and ready for whatever needed to be done. The last
thing you wanted to be chased by in a field. If we were even seen by one, that would just have to
be our luck.
My fate of being taken in was also consuming me. I imagined myself being brought into the
castle in handcuffs, while my Aunt Celine laughed in the corner. Seeing both of my parents in
disgust, wanting to reach for my throat and giving me away right on the spot. They wouldn’t hesitate to cut off all access and put me in captivity on the moon.
