COMPLETED ___________________________________________________________ I do NOT claim the original work of Gaston Leroux "The Phantom of the Opera." I also do NOT condone things discussed, written, or otherwise made known through my work such as stalking, kidnapping, marrying kidnappers/stalkers, or the like. My only wish is to make Leroux's book accessible to modern readers with a few plot twists here and there. I can only hope I have done his acclaimed work justice with my retelling.

Erik Destler has been giving Christine Daae voice lessons for a year. One day, unexpectedly, he asks for her hand in marriage. Although Erik has been planning the proposal for quite some time, Christine is completely unprepared for such a question by a man she knows only through lessons. She declines his proposal, which drives Erik to do the only thing he thinks possible. He kidnaps Christine on a cool autumn night. A series of events unfolds with Erik trying to get Christine to fall in love with him and Christine trying to escape, but each attempt proves to be futile. Christine knows she has to make Erik see that he can't control her and that she doesn't belong to him. But, the more she tries to attain her goal, the more she gets to know the workings of his mind. So, who will win? The kidnapper or the victim? Or, perhaps it is out of their control. Perhaps the victor is 'fate'.

Christine daae was always have been told by her angel of music but she would have never guessed she would love him after she got kidnapped by him after being married to raoul an acholic

What if in the final lair scene of Phantom of the Opera Christine makes a different decision? But what if this decision is the wrong one? Or maybe The phantom won't accept her love. And if he does will it last?

Erik Destler has lived alone for a long time, without family or friends...until now. After over two years of watching from a distance, he finally decides to 'save' his only love- Christine Daae. However, in order to save her he feels he must kidnap her. 17-year-old Christine Daae has basically been alone since her mother died. Her father rarely comes home at night and she doesn't associate with the friends she once had. Lonely and depressed, she treads through life hopelessly. Her loneliness is about to come to an end, though... The problem is, it's against her will. To be kidnapped and to have her freedom stolen isn't what Christine wants. But, can she really hate this masked man who has shown her nothing but kindness? And what will she do when she discovers Erik's true feelings for her? Can she forgive him? Can she love him, as he loves her?

Sequel to my story- In the Presence of an Angel. She was his muse, his reason for being, his everything. Without Christine Daae in his life, Erik Delozier feels he has nothing to live for. He thought he could let go and move on, but that was before he saw her again... He hadn't known she would visit the mansion on the exact same day, at the exact same time as he. It was fate. It couldn't be denied. And he wouldn't ignore fate...

Erik Destler and Christine Daae have a lot in common. They both love to perform, they both have quiet, humble personalities, and because of their pasts, they are both sad and lonely most of the time. When obtaining lead roles in a summer production of a play called "The Abductor", Erik and Christine get to know one another both onstage and off. Almost immediately, Erik -who has never known love- develops deep feelings for Christine. He knows for certain that his feelings will never be returned, but he also knows he can't control his heart. Christine knows better. The last thing on her mind is a relationship. In fact, love is something she fears due to the horrors of her past. Therefore, she believes that love can be a choice, not an uncontrollable feeling. And she has made her choice... or so she thinks. Once she learns of Erik's feelings for her, everything changes. Christine may think that love is a choice, but can she really control her heart? Even though there are problems and obstacles in the way, can she help but choose to love?
