Lost Hearts In the Shadow Realm
Draft
A cold wind swept through the night as Lara repeated Kaelan's words in her head. "I'm looking for someone who can save my world... you". It sounded absurd and yet she sensed that he was speaking the truth.
Lara
I think you're confusing me with someone else
She said backing away a bit
Kaelan wanted to say something back but suddenly the air around her became heavy as if the night itself was growing thicker
The wind carried a quiet dark whisper and an ominous presence settled over the forest.
Then Lara heard a laugh melodic but cold as ice
Unknown
"Kaelan you disappoint me"
Came a female voice from the shadows
A tall, slender figure stepped from the darkness. Her flowing, midnight-black hair fell like liquid silk over her shoulders, and her emerald eyes sparkled with superiority. She wore a deep dark dress that clung to her body like a living shadow

Lyara instinctively sensed that this woman was dangerous
Kaelan hardened his expression
Lyara didn't know much about the Shadow Realm but everyone knew the name Seraphina. A powerful witch who once betrayed her own family to claim the dark powers for herself. It was said that her heart no longer beat, that she only consisted of magic, hate and desire for power
Seraphina
"Kaelan, Kaelan..."
she stepped closer, her fingers gliding gently over his chin, but his expression remained cold.
Seraphina
"You promised me that you would rule by my side, and now I find you here... with her?"
Her gaze fell on Lyara and jealousy flashed in her eyes
Lyara didn't back away she didn't know why but she sensed that Seraphina was a rival. One that Kaelan not only wanted but wanted to own.
Lara
What do you want from him?"
Lyara asked challengingly
Seraphina looked at her disdainfully and laughed softly
Seraphina
How sweet, the little girl thinks she can stand up against me?
She raised her hand and an invisible pressure settled around Lara's throat. She gasped.
Kaelan responded immediately with a quick movement he grabbed Seraphina's wrist
Seraphina sighed and let go
Seraphina
Always so protective... Kaelan, you are mine you promised me
Lara saw the pain in his eyes, the struggle in his soul. Something connected him to Seraphina something that held him back
Seraphina
Don't forget who you owe your life to, my prince. If you dare to betray me... you will pay with your blood
Then she turned and disappeared into the darkness, but Lara knew that this was only the beginning
