Gelma arrived the king's mansion at about six o'clock in the evening, sadly she didn't find Nathan around. Donna told her he might return only at night. She felt sad that he wasn't around, the place was quite lonely without him.
"Lynx" She outstretched her hand in a gesture to receive something from him. He understood what she was demanding for and so he handed her her new cell phone. With it in her hand, she walked upstairs to her room. She quickly stepped into her bathroom so she could have a hot bath. She had nothing to do so decided to sink herself in the bathtub. She laid there for an immeasurable time lapse, if not that she heard her phone ringing, she would have surely remained in the now cold water.
She hurriedly dried herself and wore a bathrobe. For the phone kept ringing nonstop.
She briskly got out of the bathroom so she could pick the call. Once she answered the call, she was met with silence.
"Hello!" She called seemingly confused as to why the caller wasn't speaking.
"Gelma". She froze.
"Tyler?" She asked in bewilderment, this was a brand new phone, brand new phone number, no one knew this number but her so how was it possible that he could call her? What was going on in this era? Was everything bound to happen in an abnormal way?
"Come to your balcony". He ordered and with steady steps, she walked towards her porch. Her heart was beating fast, she was in a state of trepidation. As she approached the porch, she saw a dark silhouette of a man. He looked ethereal and had a sense of tranquility. She gulped the non existent lump in her throat. She was stunned the moment he settled his gaze on her. Tyler had never looked so mesmerizing and beautiful. He was pulchritudinous, his dirty blonde hair was tied in a short ponytail, Nathan would style his the same way. His jade eyes were a feast for the eyes, his overall appearance was angelic, she had no reason to feel appall.
"What are you doing here? How did you get in?" She asked a little stern. His beauty wasn't going to cause her to be lenient with him.
"Gelma I have all the answers to your questions". He began.
"Then what are you waiting for? Answer them". She didn't want to beat around the bush.
"Gelma I know what you saw that night I approached you". He smirked causing her to stare at him skeptically.
"You're speaking gibberish Tyler, you should better leave before I inform the guard about you". She threatened but he chuckled instead, irking her.
"No one can see me but you". He said, she scoffed at his remark.
"Gelma I have the ability to do so." He told her so she would believe him but she chose to ignore his remark.
"I know what you saw...you saw Iblis". He starred at her.
"What are you saying? Who is Iblis?"
———————————————————
A dark silhouette was lurking before a wall, after a while of throwing incantations and hovering, the wall rolled to the side, giving access for the being to step in. Iblis' room was thickened with darkness, the air was tensed and uncomfortable. She walked in still, definitely angry that it was becoming difficult to resist the dark power holding the demon captive. This same power was consuming Iblis' sanity and turning him into a senior maniac, worsening his original self.
"Friend..." he began chuckling darkly.
"I am no friend of yours demon". She replied.
"Still, you are welcome to my humble abode". He smirked at her with his dark soulless eyes, for it had lost its shine, his entire eyes were now black, it even seemed they were oozing out black smoke. He looked frightening, but this was Sybil, she had no fear for anyone.
"The fae is being protected by the purest of magic". She started. "It is quite cumbersome to break through the cloaking magic about her".
"What do you mean? You are Sybil, the most powerful and evil witch in all dynasties". He held the cage with sheer force but failed to break it apart. "No magic should be above you". He roared.
"Keep it down...don't forget that annoying bitch sister of yours can hear you". She warned earning a chuckle from him, he laughed maniacally.
"What magic is so pure as you describe". He asked.
"The very magic of her fore fathers. It is strong, I would need more time. Besides her blood cannot come of any use until she is awakened". ByeShe explained.
"Don't waste anymore time, bring her to me. I shall awaken her". He said to her with a trickster smile.
"The sole reason for her reincarnation was to have her revenge on me". He chuckled darkly.
"Whatever you say, just exercise a little more patience. I don't fail". She laughed hysterically, coupled with Iblis' maniacal laughter.

Gelma laid on her bed, deep in sleep and oblivious to who had sneaked in her bed, wrapped her in his huge and sturdy arms. She felt peaceful and comfy. She would have continued walking about slumber land if she hadn't heard a certain voice call, it was the name that stroke her chords.
"Ravaya". Nathan called, while squeezing her in his arms. Her eyes flew open, her heart was in a frenzy. What had she just heard?
He went on calling the very name, it sounded so intimate, the way the name rolled off his tongue. He was finally here with her, it didn't seem like he was having a good sleep. Was it a nightmare? What could she do to calm him down. He didn't stop mentioning the name. His hold on her was bone shattering but she had to bear with it. She watched him all night, it was only around dawn that he eased up. She had not yet recovered from the effect the name had on her. She had felt a sense of familiarity right then, like she had known him for a hundred years.
