Far away, in a land where the cattail trees are larger than skyscrapers and ponds are the size of oceans, lies a castle placed ever so gently on a massive lily pad. This world is a regular paradise, and the rulers of this aquatic utopia are the Mallards. The regal family pride themselves on ruling the land, which they have dubbed Idyll, but a danger arrives when the neighboring land invades. What peril does this incursion hold? Will the dignified Mallards be dethroned? Or will they drown the landlubbers as they have all their opponents before?

"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine."
