Chapter 17: Awoken Fear
Rae’s POV
I find myself brushing away a tickle on the side of my face while I slowly wake up. Barely opening my eyes, I lay here still feeling like drowning in my sorrows since Mary has been taken away from me. That was until I seen a purple light move and come into my vision which made me instantly sit up in shock.
Outside of the cell stood Zviad and that terrifying older man from earlier. Quickly looking around I see what seems to be a gray haze over the other women sleeping. I’m panicking slightly, I’m not sure if my panicking was caused from that gray haze or from the two men that frighten me the most.
Amused at my fear the older man smirks “Don’t worry my dear. I simply made sure they will sleep soundly tonight.” after a moment of watching me “Come closer.”
My eyes must be as wide as saucers. He must be crazy if he thinks I’d come closer to him. I find myself inching backwards finding my

The Unwanted Chance Chapter 18: Realization
Jeong’s POV I found my two night guards hiding in the kitchen rolling dice. I let out all my pent up frustration in their direction while I lectured about deserting their post. They quickly started defending themselves claiming they only came into the kitchen to grab a quick bite to eat. “You think your hunger justifies leaving everything completely unguarded?” My anger is getting the better of me and thought of the most fitting punishment. I now have them standing in the hallway on either side of my office door and a tray of fifty rolls each. “Since you were so hungry to leave your post together at the same time. You will each finish these rolls before day break. If you so much as toss one away or unable to finish all before the time limit, you will have to start all over again from square one.” They act like this is a joke and not a punishment. I caught one of them rolling their eyes as they both grabbed a roll i
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 19: Drug Side Effects
Rae’s POV Morning came as we all sat and waited silently. The hours ticked away slowly. It’s almost noon and still no sign of them coming to feed us. I notice the women are all acting tense, some are rather aggressive. I can’t help but wonder if it has something to do with the drug that’s in the food. A couple hours later two guards showed up and began scooting the trays of food and water under the cell door. As soon as they were within the cell all the women ran up like hungry beasts fighting each other for the food. I’ve never seen any of them act this way before as I sat there in shock. Looking over at those two guards I can tell they were just as shocked as I was. When all food and water was gone, all the women began acting normal again and went into their respective areas of the cell. Nothing, no bread nor water was left. I see the two guards attempting to pick everything up, but I noticed they seemed to strug
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 20: Safety Net
Jeong’s POV I watch her eyes slowly open and can see her narrow her eyes slightly looking towards my feet. Her eyes quickly open as she sat up in a panic pushing herself against the wall in front of me. She’s trembling while she looks around the room in shock. Have I really done something truly awful towards her to warrant this reaction? Then I remember Zviad and his father, they must have done something last night. I cast a chain around her wrists, I can tell she is about to go into a panic attack. Her chest is rising and falling rapidly, eyes wide, trembling and completely terrified. I don’t know what to say to calm her down, I’m not here to hurt her. I just want her safe. I close my eyes and take in a deep breath before opening them again looking at her. “Please, I need you to calm down.” Her breathing stops. Still sitting there wide eyed but frozen stiff not adverting from my gaze. “I wont hurt you. I promise.”
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 21: Second Dream
Rae’s POV Left alone. It’s quiet. The chill of the concrete floor running up my legs. Looking at the barrier, I can’t help but wonder if this truly is safe. I feel like a prisoner. What wrong have I done? I didn’t ask for this. Why am I being treated like this? Why are all the women being treated the way we are? I drape the blanket around myself and huddle down into the corner pulling in my legs and feet trying to get warm. Maybe this is better. Less people means I can practice more. I listen for a moment and hear nothing. I take in a deep breath and begin casting orbs and dismissing them. It’s almost second nature to me, at least I feel confident about casting them. Now, how do I use them? Sitting here for a while looking at a light floating in my hand I start wondering what to do with it. I remember those two guards concentrating a lot trying to move theirs but the way Jeong and Zviad used their powers seemed eff
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 22: Shattered Safety
Rae’s POV I wake up to footsteps coming down the hallway. Still feeling tired I force myself to sit up rubbing my eyes awake. Is it morning already? Letting out a yawn and rubbing my eyes one last time but stop when complete and utter terror shoots through my body. Opening my eyes I see Zviad on the other side of the cell bars staring me down. A wolfish grin spreads across his face “Found you.” Going into a panic I shoot back against the wall slipping on the straw under me. All I can do is grab the blanket clenching it against my chest. Anything to hide myself from this man. His gaze makes me feel naked and his smile makes me fear what he would do to me. I see him scowl and the barrier before he laughs with a grin. I watch as he pulls out a small disc like object from his pocket. Flipping the disc through his fingers he looks at me “If he thinks he can keep you safe wit
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 23: First Step Under the Sky
Rae’s POV Jeong is leading me around this place. If I ever tried to escape I’d be so lost. He’s leading me to an open door making my eyes flinch at the blinding light. “Where are you taking me?” I hear him let out a sigh “The Hunt is about to begin.” Once outside my eyes begin adjusting to the light. As I look up I see the expanse of the blue sky littered with fluffy white clouds. A gentle breeze caresses my face as my hair flickers tickling my nose. I notice two strange cage like structures. They are floating a couple feet off the ground. Each cage holding half of the women from the cell. There is a high wall and buildings surrounding us. Jeong tugs me towards the last cage taking off the rope and motions me to climb inside. It was difficult to climb inside. Even though the cage wasn’t far from the ground, the floor of the cage reached my mid chest. I wouldn’t consider
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 24: My Escape
Rae’s POV I wonder how much time we’re given as I quickly make my way through the thick brush beneath the trees. I end up stepping on a rock wincing in pain as I stop to see the damage. I have light cuts on the bottom of my feet. I never liked being barefoot, maybe they did this so we couldn’t get far away. I wont let that stop me and pushed forward. The terrain is getting steeper and there are more rocks and larger ones at that. I can hear what sounds like water. After pushing myself further around a bend I found a crystal clear stream. I scoop the water up in my hands and take a drink, it’s cool and refreshing. Maybe I should clean my feet some hoping I don’t get an infection. While rubbing my feet in the water I notice the shackle on my ankle, it has a blinking green light. I don’t remember there being a light before. Staring at it all of a sudden it dawns on me. They are tracking me. Terrified, I realize my dis
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 25: The Hunt Begins
Jeong’s POV Looking down at my wrist I can’t help but feel slightly annoyed at the securely placed tracer. The tracers are meant to link together to initiate the bonding ceremony once the chosen target is acquired. At least all the formalities are out of the way and I’m sure no one else besides Zviad dares to challenge me for her. I find myself walking to one of the windows watching the landscape move underneath. It amazes me how a structure as big as this stays floating in the air. Artifacts are truly surprising. An all to familiar voice pulls me from my observation. “You think you can claim her?” with a voice laced with anger. Turning around Zviad is standing tall glaring at me arms crossed. I cant help but let out a chuckle. “I don’t think, I know.” It’s a pity we are restrained from using our powers against other competitors otherwise it would disqualify us from claiming a woman. But that
