Kael Dreaven
This was one of those moments I had imagined over and over again. Dreamt of, wished for, so much that now that it was actually happening, it felt unreal. Like a sweet dream I didn't want to wake up from.
Kain beneath me, soft sounds spilling from his lips, our bodies tangled, hearts beating in sync.
Perfect.
But then, the door burst open.
I froze, rage surging so fast it burned through my chest. My head snapped toward the door, already imagining myself crossing the room and wrapping my hands around Jay's neck until his head popped right off.
"What the fuck are you doing in here?" I snapped, causing him to flinch.
But then he spoke, and everything in me dropped.
"I was just coming from the boy's room… he's not there. The shield outside-- it's also gone. Someone took him."
For a moment, I couldn't breathe. My heartbeat stuttered like it was trying to restart itself. My hands went numb. My legs felt like they weren't even mine.
Gone.
The boy is gone.
