Wren's life is about to change forever - but not how she expects it to. Kidnapped on her wedding day, she finds herself trapped in a mountain cave, unable to return home with no company outside of the inhuman creature that took her. *** "Wait, Wren! Not that way!" It was darker here and panic limited her vision, but she could see it reaching for her; its wings like two huge looming shadows behind it. "Get away! Don't touch me! No, let me go!" She shrieked. She screamed in earnest as a hand took hold of her arm, and then even more when her own hand reached for something to hang onto and grasped at empty air. She had been scrambling towards a sudden drop! The hands hauled her back, but she still struggled. She didn't want to look at it, and she still wasn't sure she wouldn't rather take her chances with the open air instead. "Stop it, I'm not going to hurt you! You'll hit your head on the rock or something. Wren, please!" It knew her name. Somehow it knew her. She was going to die! "Let me go! Stop touching me!" She was sitting on the rocky floor now with her back against an uneven wall, and it was trying to pin her down and hold her still. She kept her eyes turned away and struggled helplessly, but it was no use. It was strong like a human man too, and she couldn't keep it off of her. The wings had moved until they curved around them both and shut out a lot of the light. Its face was so near hers that she could feel its breath brushing against her skin. "Please just look at me for a second. Just look. I'm not going to hurt you." One of the hands grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn, and then she was looking straight into a pair of dark brown eyes. It had a human face too. She had been expecting something monstrous or ghastly, and the surprise made her falter for a moment. He looked young, with a bad haircut and an earnest expression on his face. "I'll let go of you, okay? Just don't lunge around like that anymore, you'll get hurt." He whispered.

He's bred to be the perfect human. Cunning, alert, strong. She's natural, soft, forgotten along with the rest of humanity. But when these two worlds collide, destroying everything they thought they knew about each others race- there's a shift. His behaviours change, he's intrigued, addicted. She's afraid, but undeniably drawn to him. Can two people so different love each other even when their worlds tell them not to? ________ "My brother knows." I blurted. His usually composed expression broke, showing a slight amount of panic I would've expected to see from one of us ground dwellers. "What?" "He figured out I must've been seeing someone in secret, and I slipped up... he knows you're from the sky, he knows I see you often to talk, he knows I helped you." I admitted, shame flowing through me. He took a deep breath and glanced towards the house behind me. "And what did he say?" I did the same, letting air fill my lungs entirely until I was ready to admit it. "He said that because you saved my life... he wouldn't mention it to anybody else. But that I'm not to see you anymore a-and," He watched me so intensely, like his whole identity revolved around this moment. "...And?" "And that I am to marry William r-right away." I stuttered over the truth knowing it was impossibly hard for both of us to accept. Adrian only stared back, sadness washing over his eyes like a fog, some of the purest emotion I've ever seen from him. "Do you... want to marry him?" This time I paused. I didn't want to, no. But how would telling him that help us in any way? "He- he's strong," I defended William in an effort to stop this conversation from going any further. But Adrian's brow creased. "I'm stronger." I was taken aback at how quickly he defended himself, but the thing is he isn't wrong. He is stronger.
