I was still lost in confusion when a familiar voice broke through my daze. It was Luciana, my trusted vampire confidante, who had the ability to communicate with me through our unique connection. Her voice was urgent, filled with concern.

"Athena!" Luciana's voice echoed in my mind, her words cutting through the haze of my thoughts. "Help our angel! She's in danger!"

I was dumbfounded by her words, unable to process the sudden shift in the situation. Luciana had referred to the mysterious girl as "our angel," a term I had never heard her use before. It left me with more questions than answers, but I knew there was no time to seek clarification.

With a renewed sense of purpose, I swam towards the young angel who had appeared and then disappeared so mysteriously. I reached out and gently cradled her unconscious form, carefully lifting her out of the water. Her brown hair clung to her face, and her white wings glistened with droplets of water.

As I held her in my arms, a sense of protectiveness washed over me. It was clear that she needed help, and I was determined to provide it. With the young angel in my grasp, I began to make my way out of the lake, guided by Luciana's urgent plea and a growing sense of responsibility for the girl who had entered my world so unexpectedly.

As I sat by the edge of the lake, cradling the unconscious angel in my lap, a deep sense of concern washed over me. Her peaceful face held an innocence that tugged at my heart, and I couldn't help but feel a growing connection to her, despite the mysteries that surrounded her presence.

Carefully, I began to assess her condition. My fingers gently brushed her face, tracing the delicate contours of her features. There were no signs of injuries or bruises on her body, and her breathing was steady and regular. It was as if she had simply drifted into slumber.

The woods around us remained silent, the tranquility broken only by the distant calls of birds and the soft rustling of leaves. I couldn't shake the feeling that this encounter held a deeper significance, that the girl with the white wings had come into my life for a reason.

As I continued to cradle her in my arms, my thoughts raced. Who was she, and why had she appeared in our realm? What connection did she have to the mysteries that surrounded our world? These questions filled my mind, but for now, I focused on ensuring her well-being and safety.

I whispered softly to the unconscious girl, my words a gentle reassurance. "You're safe now," I murmured. "I'll take care of you."

The girl began to stir, her movements slow at first, like a sleeper roused from a peaceful dream. Her facial expression, once serene, started to morph into one of fear and confusion. Her brows furrowed, and her lips trembled as if she were on the verge of waking from a nightmare.

I watched with growing concern as she squirmed in my lap, her movements becoming more frantic. It was clear that she was beginning to regain consciousness, and I couldn't help but wonder what had brought her to this state of distress.

Her whimpering grew more pronounced, and I knew that I needed to act quickly to reassure her and ease her fears. Gently, I brushed a stray strand of brown hair from her face and whispered soothing words in a hushed tone.

"It's all right," I murmured, my voice a gentle caress. "You're safe now. You're with me, and I won't let anything harm you."

As I cradled the girl in my lap, her fidgeting and distress showed no signs of abating. Despite my gentle reassurances and comforting words, her agitation persisted, like a storm brewing beneath the surface.

Her facial expressions contorted with fear, and her whimpering grew more pronounced, making my heart ache with concern. It was as if she were trapped in a nightmare from which she couldn't escape.

I continued to stroke her hair and murmur soothing words, hoping to calm her restless spirit. But as time passed, her agitation only seemed to intensify. It was clear that something was deeply troubling her, something beyond the physical realm.

Then, unexpectedly, she began to repeat a desperate plea, her voice growing louder with each repetition. "Help, help, please!" she cried out, her words a haunting echo in the tranquil woods.

The urgency in her voice sent a shiver down my spine, and I held her closer, and i kept repeating with a gentle voice"i'm here baby, shhh calm down"  determined to provide whatever comfort I could, her cries reached a crescendo, and she let out a piercing scream that seemed to pierce through the very fabric of our surroundings.

With a sudden jolt, she awakened from her distressed state, At first, there was a glimmer of admiration in her gaze. It was a fleeting moment of awe that passed quickly. her eyes wide with fear as they met mine. The transition from her nightmare to the reality of our encounter left her breathless, her chest heaving with rapid breaths.


The angel looked around and took in her unfamiliar surroundings, a sense of fear and anxiety washed over her. Her brows furrowed, and her eyes darted around, searching for recognition that didn't come. The tranquil woods and the serene lake were a stark contrast to the world she had known, and it was clear that she was disoriented and lost.

I continued to hold her gently, offering a reassuring presence as I spoke softly. "You're safe," I repeated, hoping to ease her anxiety. "You're with me, and I won't let anything harm you. Can you tell me your name little angel?"

Her gaze remained fixed on me, and her lips trembled as if she were struggling to find her voice ;With a gentle and reassuring tone, I continued to speak to her, coaxing her to find her voice. "It's all right little angel," I murmured, my words a soft encouragement. "You're safe here, and I'm here to help you. Take your time. There's no rush."
