Lily's heart was racing as she made her way back to the castle. She knew she had to warn Benjamin about Thomas's ominous warning.
As she entered the castle, she saw Benjamin pacing in the hallway. "Lily, I've been looking everywhere for you," he said, his eyes filled with worry.
"I saw Thomas," Lily said, her voice barely above a whisper. "He said Alexander's plan is already in motion."
Benjamin's face darkened. "We have to act fast," he said. "We can't let Alexander ruin everything."
Just then, a loud noise echoed through the hallway. They turned to see Alexander standing in front of them, a triumphant smile on his face.
"It's too late," Alexander said. "My plan is already in motion. And there's nothing you can do to stop it."
Benjamin's eyes narrowed. "What have you done, Alexander?" he growled.
Alexander chuckled. "You'll find out soon enough," he said. "But for now, let's just say that you'll never be with Lily again."
And with that, he turned and walked away, leaving Benjamin and Lily to wonder what lay ahead.
Suddenly, the castle doors burst open, and a group of guards rushed in. "Benjamin, you're under arrest," one of them said.
Benjamin's eyes widened in shock. "What's going on?" he demanded.
But before anyone could answer, he was dragged away, leaving Lily alone and frightened.
Lily's heart was racing as she made her way back to the castle. She knew she had to warn Benjamin, but she didn't know what Alexander's plan was.

Benjamin's face darkened. "We need to be careful," he said. "We don't know what we're up against."
Just then, a loud noise echoed through the hallway. They turned to see Alexander standing in front of them, a triumphant smile on his face.
"It's too late for warnings," he said. "My plan is already in motion. And soon, you'll both be out of the way."
Lily's heart skipped a beat as Alexander's guards stepped forward, surrounding them.
"What have you done, Alexander?" Benjamin demanded.
Alexander chuckled. "You'll find out soon enough," he said. "But for now, let's just say that you're both going to be taking a little trip."
And with that, the guards closed in, dragging Benjamin and Lily away.

Lily struggled against the guards, but they were too strong. She was dragged away, her eyes fixed on Benjamin's helpless form as he was pulled in the opposite direction.
"Benjamin!" she screamed, but her voice was muffled by the guards' hands.
