Sophia woke up in a room which looked like it was decorated by a five year old. She felt a small hand on her leg startling her."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you". The little girl spoke. Sophia looked at her like she had seen a ghost. The little girl was extremely beautiful, her lush white hair complimented her emerald green eyes. She looked really young. "She couldn't be above five years old" Sophia spoke inwardly. "I'm not a child. I'm way above five years old ", the little girl answered correcting Sophia's thoughts, sending chills down her spine."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that out loud"."But you didn't". The girl retorted. "Here, drink this. It'll help with the pain you're feeling ".Sophia took the cup from the girl's hand not trusting the content."I didn't poison you, I saved you. You wondered into the wrong side of the forest. My name is Maya ". The little girl spoke with excitement."Maya, it's a nice name. I'm So—" a loud screeching sound filled the room causin
"Walk with me ." Lewis spoke, directing the command to Philip. Lewis made sure to signal his guards, letting them know his next move. They stood by the pool side, embracing the view. "I called you here to talk business". The old man snapped his fingers and just like that Philip was surrounded. "What is this madness?" Philip yelled. "It's just business my boy." Lewis pattes his shoulder before walking away. "Bring him to the car". He instructed. The guards tied Philip up and out him in the car, driving closely behind their boss. The old man picked up his phone and called his granddaughter. "Hello, who is this?" Sophia asked. "Give the phone to your lover". She instantly recognized his voice and did as she was told. She hurriedly gave the phone to Tyler. "Grandfather". She mouthed. "Speak to me". Tyler affirmed. "Where should I drop your delivery?" He queried. "I'll send the address." Tyler hung up immediately and returned Sophia's phone. He placed a kiss on her forehead, cupp
She pulled away from Tyler, looking at him with tears in her eyes. "It was you," she quavered. "I saved you that night, you were the one in the fire, I got burnt from saving you ". She stepped back from Tyler, trying to get a hold of herself. "Sophia, calm down". He coerced her. "Don't touch me!" She yelled. "You caused that fire, you didn't need saving. You're the Dragon Marshal, you could've stopped it". She pulsated. Tyler reached for her hand, trying to explain what she saw. He knew she was special and one day she was going to see everything. "Please, listen to me". Tyler pleaded. "My face got ruined because of you". She snapped back. "Well I never asked you to save me!" Tyler bit his tongue regretting what he had just spewed. Sophia looked at him with mixed emotions of pain and anger, most of all, sadness. "You're right, good night." She took to her heels, wanting to be as far away from him as possible but she couldn't, it wasn't safe. Sophia was extremely lucky to have
Lewis decided to take the winning side."Walk with me ." Lewis spoke, directing the command to Philip.

The shocking turn of attitude towards Sophia left her in shock. She wasn't human neither was she with the man she began to love. She had only read about fairies, surely as a child she wished to be one but seeing as her wish had taken the most important person from her life, she couldn't be more devastated.As the days went by, Sophia and Tyler lived like mere housemates, coexisting and barely crossing each other's paths. Tyler hadn't told her to leave his house but where would she go? Sophia had paused her learning with Maya, after the incident with Tyler, she lost interest in everything. Nothing seemed fun anymore. Sophia thought it'd be better to move in with Maya and look for a job. With Tyler ignoring her and and irritated me her presence she knew her time was coming to an end. She reached out to Maya hoping her friend could help her for a while, at least until she can afford a place for herself. Maya agreed and asked that she came over after letting Tyler know. Sophia got tired
The sun beamed directly at his eyes, Tyler let out a faint yawn. "What a night !" Tyler groaned while sitting straight up on the bed , with his right hand rubbing his forehead due to the hangover from last night's clubbing and drinking. There were movements on the bed and his gaze shifted from the window to the other side of the bed . Just beside him was the lady he picked up from the club and had a one night stand with. He traced her body with his eyes and was amazed how endowed she was, her face was covered with a red veil. "She looks pretty, but what is it with the veil covering her face?" He thought to himself. "Morning damsel," he spoke, trying to wake her from her sleep. He stretched his hand to pat her gently on the hip. The lady frowned, troubled at the slight disturbance. She shifted in the bed, before opening her eyes, "Where am I?" She asked, slowly raising her body from the bed. Gazing at the man before her, she immediately noticed she was naked and had nothing
It was ten years ago. Tyler was involved in a terrible fire outbreak, which got him trapped with no way out. He had no one to save or rescue him from the flames that surrounded him that very day. All he could do was scream out and await his end. His vision soon became blurry as the smoke grew thicker. Tyler slowly began losing consciousness. But it was at that very moment he saw her. Sonia Walters, the one who risked her life to walk through the flames and pull a terrified Tyler out from the burning building. "Hold on to me!" She had yelled, placing his arm around her shoulder. Tyler did as she instructed, following his young savior, until she showed him the way out to safety. Upon reaching safety, he fainted due to the smoke. A bruised and partially burnt Tyler woke up to find himself in the South. He had been rescued and taken somewhere else. Away from home and away from the young lady who saved him. He never got the chance to see and thank her for her help. After ten years in
Philip felt pleased with the event transpiring in front of him. Unknown to the Walters family, the whole incident was part of his conspiracy. It was all his doing. Although there was a change in his scheme. Philip had hired those men to drug and take turns with Sonia, he wanted to film it and send to the Walters family, but it didn't go the way as planned. Sonia managed to escape their hold, ending up in Tyler's arms instead. Even though the stranger who rescued his fiancee wasn't among the men he hired, Philip was still glad that he was a man. As soon as the guys from the bar reached out to him about the situation on ground, he immediately went for the next course of action which was acquiring the surveillance footage from the bar through a bribe, bringing the photos down to Walters's home to ruin his engagement to his fiancee. What more could be expected of a 30 years old bachelor who still lives with his parents and believes marriage is a charade? Disgusting! Philip hated th
