Cooper's POV:

     This half-naked girl, wearing a pink crop-top, white jeans, and black heals, with blonde hair that has red dye starting from half its length, gray eyes, and exuding confidence, is on my bed. Why does she look so familiar, it bothers me I cannot shake this feeling. "Hello Young Master, my apologies for feeding off you much earlier; I was clueless, uninformed if I had known that it was you I would have then I would not have scared you," she stated, my mouth was agape. She is so well spoken and polite, it does not fit her personality, it seems a bit too forced. I asked for her name; she told she was Emily BlakeWater. "Emily, please stop the formalities. Just be yourself" I laughed as I visibly watched her shoulders dropped "Thank God, I thought I was going to have to be "prim and proper" forever," she said mocking air quotes with her fingers when she said "prim and proper."

       I laughed as she dropped the Mrs.Mary Poppins politeness and out came Emily BlakeWaters. "Now that we have cleared up that, what did you mean about 'feeding' off me?" I asked puzzled. "You should remember me, I did change my appearance a little bit, but when you were walking home from school, I was the dead girl. Obviously now, as you can see, I am alive and well. I am somewhat of an incubus; I am a Rachitti, a demonic spirit that feeds off fear and insanity; You must have heard a small little voice, whispers even, inside your head as you looked at my 'corpse'? Well, that is the primary way we feed. Now that we have clarified any confusion on my behalf, what happened to you?! You look kind of hot." She stated I blushed at her last sentence.

    Well, it was nice to meet you, thanks for the compliment, but I am gay so maybe in another dimension. I went back into the bathroom to change into my night attire, which was very comfortable might I add. When I came back, Emily was gone. I decided to sleep.

Cooper's Dream:

   "NO, PLEASE STOP" I screamed as I reached my hand out but nothing happened. My hand went right through them. Dylan and some woman. Everyone was smiling, congratulating the two on the marriage. He had already moved onto another; I watched as I was my world crumble, the little part of the mating bond Morgana kept was causing my body to fall into excruciating pain. Blood was dripping from my eyes, ears, and nose as I kept screaming, I was going to stop this somehow. I chanted every spell I know; every forbidden spell was performed. I summoned every demon I knew how, Tosumaki, Gomorrah, the three most powerful female demons in existence, Madama Butterfly, Madama Styx, and Madama Khepri. "WHY IS NOTHING WORKING!? Someone, just please end the pain..." I was forced awake as Morgana used an awakening spell on me.

  When I woke up, the room was a mess, Morgana, Derick, Amile, and Emily were all looking at me with shock and fear. They all rushed to me checking my vitals, seeing if I had a fever and finally asked if I was okay and what had happened. I explained my "dream" to them. Fear overridden Morgana's face, she told me that what I had was not a dream. It was an omen. What was unknown was when the event happened, if it has already happened, currently happening, or will happen. I wanted to stop this, but I cannot. He hates me, and she very clearly makes him happy.

Dylan's POV:

    'Ambivalence' that is the only word to describe my situation. I am happy that Cooper is gone, but I have a few things that scare me:

    One, where did he go? The witch never told us where she sent him; this makes my wolf uneasy for some reason. Two, why do I have a feeling of unease? My wolf has recently been talking about something big will happen, that will affect me. I asked the Elders, and they said their wolves have also been forewarning them about a significant event. Three, why has Victor, my Beta, been so depressed recently? He does his work efficiently still, but he no longer communicates or smiles unless around Jasmine. Everyone has noticed it, including Jordan, we've done everything to cheer him up, but nothing works. The worst part, we don't know what is upsetting him, and he refuses to tell. Jasmine knows, but she was sworn to secrecy by him, she refuses to betray her mate. Four, Victor went to the elders shortly after leaving Cooper's room, and he looked a bit shaken. When he walked out of the place his eyes held, regret? I went to the Elders immediately to see what could have shaken fearless Victor to his core; when I walked into the room, the Elders suddenly got quiet, attempting to hide a book. They were discussing something of great importance, that is the same book Victor was holding as well. When I asked what they were talking about, they immediately got quiet and did not disclose. I have no power to force them into telling me, if I attempt to I can be harshly punished.

    Questions were racing through my mind: What did Victor find in that book that was so important he brought it to the Elders?Why did the Elders find the book so valuable? Why do I have a feeling of regret? Where is Cooper, WHO is Cooper?
