Victoria's Pov 

Night time arrive in a blink of an eye. I close my eyes and go to the dream world.

In the dream

I am a countess preparing myself for a speech that I will do. I change myself from a night gown to a long sleeve red dress and put on a black crown with red jewels around the crown. I huffed out a breath.

" Ready, Countess Valor ? "  my second in command, Astoria said.

" Ready " I answer with pride.

Astoria lead me to my balcony and I see every vampire waiting for me. I clear my throat before speaking.

" Greetings, fellow vampires, I'm truly delighted to have you all here. In this day and age, th- "

Before I can start my speech, I see everyone gasp at me. I look down to see an arrow on my lower abdomen, blood trickling down my dress staining it a dark Crimson. Who did this ? I question before I fainted.

Meanwhile 

Sofia's Pov

I prepare myself to enter Victoria's dream. As soon as I am in the dream, I use my hood to cover my head. I smirked to myself when I withdraw an arrow from my dress's pocket. I use magic to make it invisible and fly until it hit Victoria's lower abdomen. Instantly, everyone gasp at her wound.

I turn away from the crowd and go to my own directions. When I wake up, I smile in victory at what I did in the dream to Victoria.

Back to

Victoria's Pov 

I wake up in my own bed with no wound on my lower abdomen. Thank goodness, it was all just a dream. A very terrifying dream. I go down the stairs for breakfast. I am enjoying my breakfast peacefully until I see Asher drinking coffee.

" Why are you here ? " I shouted.

" I stayed the night here yesterday. Let me guess you had a nightmare " he smirk when he saw my confused face.

" How do you know ? "

" I can feel magic radiating out of you so someone put a spell on you last night "

" In the dream, someone attacked me and I never saw it coming "

" Aha, it must be magic or else how come you can't see someone striking towards you. Do you know who attack you in that nightmare ? " he sit laid back on the chair across from me.

" That's the thing I don't know. Could that nightmare mean something ? " I think to myself.

" Maybe or maybe not " he shrugged his shoulders.

" I need to go to work today so bye " I left the dining table.

I change my outfit to my work outfit. 

" You look nice " Asher lean on the door.

" Don't you have anything else to do ? "

" No . But, I'll get out from your mansion "

" I don't believe you "  he scoffed.

" Of course you won't . I just remembered that I need to pay someone a visit "

" Who ? "

" Not gonna tell you " I roll my eyes at his remark.

Meanwhile

Asher's Pov

I change my clothes into a casual one. I snap my fingers to teleport myself to the person's location. I knock on the door and expect someone to open the door.

" Why are you here, Asher ? " Cynthia asked me.

" I might need your help on something "

" Don't just stand there. Come in "

" Someone with magic invade Victoria's dream turning it into a nightmare "

" Do you want me to make her a protection charm ? "

" I want you to cast a spell on her so no evil can invade her "

" Can't you do it yourself ? "

" Unfortunately, I can't. If I could do it, I wouldn't be here in the first place begging for your help "

" Give me a few days "

" I appreciate your help . Thank you, Cynthia "

" No problem, anything for a friend " I get out from her house.

I teleport myself to my apartment. I lay down on the couch until a thought interrupt my mind. I get back up and call Rick.

" What's up, man ? " he greet from the other side.

" We need to figure up a plan to defeat Sofia "

" I'll be there before this call ended " the bell ringed signaling someone is outside.

I open the door and find Rick with Astoria. I let them inside my apartment.

" You didn't tell me that you bring your girlfriend with you " I said.

" I had the same nightmare as Victoria " Rick's girlfriend, Astoria said.

" Because of that, I realize that this is something serious " Rick said referring to his girlfriend.

" We need to stop Sofia "

" The main problem isn't Sofia. It's Felicia who's behind this " 

" Who's Felicia ? "

" My step mother " Tori said.

When did she get here ?

" I came in as soon as I heard that Astoria is here " Tori answer the question I had in mind like she can somehow read my mind.

" Your mind is so loud " she complained.

" Sorry "

" So, what's the plan ? "
