Jasmine. Moonlight. A garden. I was in a sapphire gown. He was there-𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐧-watching me like I was air and he was drowning. "𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐚" he breathed. I stepped closer. I couldn't stop. He pulled me in, hand on my waist, thumb on my jaw. Storm-gray eyes. Desperate. Hungry. "𝐈 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮." His mouth crashed into mine. A claim. A century of longing. I melted- His eyes snapped open. Sharp. Wrong. "𝐖𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐮𝐩, 𝐉𝐢𝐚." I gasped awake. Heart pounding. Lips burning. A shadow stood in the corner of my room. Tall. Still. Watching. It tilted its head. A whisper curled through the dark. "𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝." I blinked. Gone. Just moonlight and silence. I didn't sleep again. _________________________________ Jia entered the most haunted palace in the country for a dare, eager to prove her bravery.
