"I won't let you" the brunette man, my father pleads on the docks right beside a large wooden ship. "Abigail please don't leave me."

"Declan I'm sorry" my mother sighs as she adjusts her dress before turning to look at the ship. "I have to get out of here. I cannot stay."

"I'm in love with you Abigail! I will never be able to live with myself if I let you get on this ship and I never see you again. I have never felt this way about anyone before. My body craves your touch, my heart calls your name, my soul begs for you."

"I'm sorry. This is what I want and what I need to do to ensure your safety."

"I don't care about being safe I just want to be with you!"

"Final call!" A sailor calls from down the dock.

"Goodbye dec" my mother smiles before she turns to leave. My father grabs her hand and kisses her before he lets her leave. "I love you too."

The dream turns blank as I hear the noises of the ship setting sail and the sounds of waves.

"You let my daughter leave!" An older voice yells. My dream clears and I see a tall man with a walking stick glaring back at my father. "We have witnesses that see you on that dock. You let her get on that ship!"

"There was no stopping her" my father pleads. "I begged, she wouldn't stay."

"You're supposed to give her orders!" The man corrects. "You're set to be her husband, she is yours. She is meant to do whatever you say! You're weak!"

"No I'm in love with her!"

"You're weak! I order for you to be executed tonight!"

"No!"

Two men in masks come up from behind my father and grab him by the arms, my father fights against them and eventually changes.

He hits the two men and uses his claws to cut their throats open. He turns back to the tall man snarling, he steps back in horror but he isn't fast enough as my father sticks his hand through his chest and pulls out the old man's heart.

The sound of my phone ringing pulls me out of my sleep. I groan as I reach over and grab my phone and answer the call, "hello?" My voice is croaky and I guess the person on the other end of the call knows I've just woken up.

"Have I just woken you up Jackson?" Liam chuckles. "Poor sleeping beauty."

"I was actually doing some prophet business" I shrug. "So you disturbed me from my work not my sleep."

"No you were sleeping" Liam says. I can practically see the large grin that is probably spread across his face. "You were getting your beauty sleep in."

"Well you don't look like this from doing nothing" I chuckle as I run my hand through my hair and begin to pick up the journals that are across the floor and set them onto my desk. "What did you call for?"
