Betrothed

The Tower

Later in my bed with Serena sitting on her bed across from me I began thinking if I should tell her what's been going on. "Scarlett are you alright? I told you I would be here so you can tell me anything and I promise I won't tell a soul." I looked at her and I felt that I could trust her but there was this feeling telling me that I had to it a secret about the voice in my head. "Well I can't tell you everything just yet but I will tell you one day." She smiled at me and I looked out the window behind her seeing a tower and I got up from my bed walking to her side of the room. She then followed my gaze and I stopped at the foot of her bed. "That's the forbidden tower of the black bull no one is allowed to enter there because it is believed that the spirits of the white and black bulls along with Nyx's spirit visit there and there have been many actiddents there." I couldn't believe that the one place I was being summond to was forbidden what was I supposed to do to get inside there without getting caught. I later tried to go to sleep and my head still hurt so I decided to look at the clock it was thirty minutes from midnight so I made sure to quietly put my slippers and bathrobe on and snuck out girls without being seen. When I made it outside I tried to find my way to the tower but I couldn't tell where I was. I then soon began to hear wings and I was worried what to say when Erebus landed right behind me. "Out before dawn again, now I know you're not part of the dark daughters group so what are you doing here? Did you come to see me again?" I turned around slowly and looked at him while fiddling with my fingers. "I... I uh I'm out for a walk around the school since I didn't get much of a tour my first day." He folded his arms and shook his head at me. "I'm not stupid Scarlett now what are you up to?" I breathed and decided I had to tell him which to my surprise felt ok. "I'm heading to the forbidden tower because during the ceremony and the rest of the time in my classes and I can't get it out of my head." He put his arms down and closed the distance between us making feel uncomfortable. "Then you must be hearing the voice of Nyx and since I am supposed to protect her children I will go with you so that if we get caught I'll take the blame." I smiled and he took my hand leading me to tower. Later on when we made it to the tower we went inside and walked up a set of stairs. When we finally made it to the top I heard the voice again. "You have come with another but he must hear this too." Everything then went black and when I opened my again we were in some sort of cave. A light then began to shine and I grabbed onto Erebus having him hold me. When the light disappeared I saw very beautiful woman with long brown hair and a white dress. I then watched confused as Erebus got down on one knee and bowed to her with his hand over his heart and his head down. "Nyx."
