Y/n P.O.V

  I woke up the next morning, sweating, from a nightmare. My heart was beating really fast. But I've had nightmares before. I always managed to overcome them. I took a few deep breaths, and I managed to calm down. I got up, and slowly, sleepily, I walked to the bathroom. I washed my face, brushed my teeth, and I walked back into the room. I changed out of my pyjamas, into sweatpants, and a dark red hoodie. I wasn't really feeling hungry, so I picked up the book I started reading while I was lying comfortably in bed.
  At some point, after around half an hour, I finished the remaining 60 pages in my book, I got up, to take another book, from the bag I threw last night somewhere in a corner. I walked to the bag and grabbed one of the thriller books, and started it. While I was reading, I heard a knock on the door.
  "Come in!"
  I said loud enough to be heard from the other side of the door. I heard the door open, and I looked up to reveal 2 red-headed boys, which I deduced were Luke and Kieran.
  "Good morning!"
  They said at the same time.
  "I'm Luke!"
  Said the on the left
  "And I'm Kieran!"
  "Nicen to meet you two."
  I told them as I put my book away, wandering why were they here.
  "Well, the boss sent us to get you down for breakfast."
  "Well, tell Sylus I'm not very hungry."
   I told them, and they nodded their head and walked out, closing the door behind them. A few good minutes later, I could hear heavy footsteps coming towards my room and one powerful knock on the door.
  "Come in!"
  I said again, and in came Sylus woth a frown on his sharp features.
  "What do you mean by 'Tell him I'm not hungry' ? Huh? Do explain"
  He said like he was gonna go boom any minute.
  "Means, I'm not hungry, Sylus. I can't eat right now."
  "You have training today. You have to eat. I don't want you fainting on me. Come. I don't want to hear it, kitten."
  He spoke in an annoyed tone and looked straight in my eyes. Eventually, I got up and put the book on the nightstand, walked to him, gave him a mean glare, and walked past him to the dining room, where there was a tray of food for me. I sat there and ate.
  "After you finish eating, I want you to relax an hour and them come downstairs to the gym. You'll be training there. Is that clear."
  "Train with who?"
  "With me, kitten. Don't ask dumb questions."
  I finished eating and afterwards I went back to my room, to stay a little before my training. I read during that hour, and then I changed my hoodie to a black shirt and went to the gym. I opened the door that I thought would be the gym, and I saw Sylus in a black tank top and black sweatpants. He looked kinda hot. No, noooooo, Y/n, he kidnapped you. You're not allowed to think that.
  "Well, come in here, kitten. You aren't going to wait there, are you?"
  I walked in, looking around the gym. Where we were right now was a big mat, and he's standing there looking at me.
  "OK, what are we gonna do."
  "Attack me, kitten."
  "What?"
  I asked him
  "Attack me. Use your Evol."
  I used my Evol to strike him, but he   blocked it.
  "Hm....weak. you're weak, darling. When I read your file, I saw your Evol was 'Dark Matter'. Am I right, kitten?"
  "Yes, why?"
  "Kitten, what is dark matter?"
  He asked as if wanting to prove to me I'm stupid or anything.
  "Sylus, dark matter is 80% of our universe. Even you, as a human being, have dark matter inside you. And don't get me started on Wanderer's. They are dark matter 99%."
  "Good, kitten, you're not absolutely dumb. Quite the opposite. You could bend anything and anyone to obey you, yet you don't know how to control your Evol. That's bad. Give me your hand, kitten."
  He told me, and I gave him my hand. I realised what he wanted, and I moved my fingers a bit as if charging my Evol, a dark mist, as if absorbing light, envelops my hand.
  "Good, well start small today, yeah? Just play with it. Make a sphere of darkness and play with it, kitten."
  I tried my best, and I only made a ball of darkness and tried to keep it there.
  "Concentrate on it, kitten. I'm serious."
  "I'm trying, shut up already, Sylus."
  "Concentrate!"
  He repeated himself, and I threw the dark matter at him, actually hitting him. The next thing I saw was his Evol around me, all the while my Evol was wrapping around his.
  "It's trying to resonate with my Evol."
  "Put. Me. Down. Sylus."
  I said, annoyed. And he did. He then came very close to me, towering over me and having his hand through the dark mist around me. My Evol didn't react in a bad it, it just coiled around his Evol.
  "It's weird. What's it doing, Sylus."
  "It's... connecting us... I think."
  I let out a big yawn. Because the usage of your Evol for too long was exhausted.
  "I think you should rest up. Me and the twins will be going to banish the DeepSpace Hunters that came looking for you, kitten."
  "What? Who came?"
  "The soldiers addressed this woman, Jenna."
  "She's the captain.*
  I said as I yawned again. I felt Sylus behind me, and the next thing I knew, I was in his arms.
  "I'm not letting you alone in your room. Hunters are everywhere. You'll stay in my room. I'll have Mephisto watch over you."
  "Why your room?"
  I ask, curious.
  "Because it is a bit more hidden away. You don't find that easily."
  "That makes sense."
  I said, and he walked through the huge penthouse, thinking that I'll need a damn map for the place. He eventually got to his room and walked in with me. He layed me in the bed and looked at Mephisto.
  "Watch over her, and don't be bitchy. If anything happens, you announce me."
  "CAW!"
  The crow said, and then Sylus turned to me.
  "Don't go out until I'm back. Alright? Please. It's for your own safety."
  "Alright."
  I told him, and he smirked at me and left.
  I stayed there, and after a few minutes, I looked at the crow
  "Can I pet you?"
  "CAW"
  It said and flew next to me. And I took it as a yes, and I pet him.
  After a few hours, I had to change from the still sweaty clothes, and realising I couldn't leave the room, I had no other choice but to take something from Sylus. If he killed me good if he didn't even better.
  "Do you think he'll kill me?"
  I asked Mephisto. But he didn't do anything. He just looked at me. I went to Sylus' closet, and I looked inside.
  "What to take? And why is it so cold in his room?"
  I muttered as I ended up taking a pair of his black sweatpants and a red shirt. I changed, and I realised it was already 10 p.m. So I went to bed. I got in his bed and under the covers.
