Eleanor's P.O.V Too much light!Groaning, I squinted my eyes and scrunched my nose as I twisted and turned on the bed. I raised my hand and moved it over the cold empty space beside me on the bed, making my eyes snap open instantly. No Daniel.My heart started to race in my chest frantically as I got off the bed and started searching for the familiar pine scent.Bathroom. Not there. Wardrobe. Not there.Outside the room. Not there.Under the bed. Not there.Behind the dressing table. Not there.He was nowhere in the room . Tears started to blur my vision as I forgot everything thing else that I should have remembered and started crying like a child who lost his mother in a fair.Oh God! This sunlight is ripping my apart. And, Daniel is also nowhere to be found. I don't want to live. Where's my Daniel?I stumbled to the window to close the curtains completely as the brightness of the sun kept on adding to my distress. My eyes finally adjusted to the dimmer lighting as my red eyes la

Daniel's P.O.V Sounds of footsteps made my heart pick up a quick pace as I shoot my eyes open. Turning my head my eyes glanced at the first rays of sun rising from the window. Another hectic night had yet ended. My eyes landed on my Eleanor who was snoring peacefully. Such a beautiful sight obstructed only by a single strand of that brown hair which once used to be brighter than the sun rays themselves. Flower... I don't know how to say sorry for what I've done to you because of my selfishness. I know I am not deserving of forgiveness but I can't let you go, my pretty flower.Removing the strand of hair from her face, I pressed my lips to her forehead as I got off the bed. And, as soon as I did I saw her stir in her sleep as if her heart knew I was leaving but the trouble expression soon relaxed as she faced the other side of the bed.A smile stretched through my lips as I walked to the door, opening it lightly. As my eyes took in the vision of Henry and Petroka. I placed my finge

Eleanor's P.O.V How... How can this be?How can it even been possible?My eyes have to be deceiving me! It's impossible. The sight before my eyes is impossible!My brain told me to run. Run from this place. Pretend I was never here. But, somehow my feet dragged me to the portrait.The portrait which should have never existed. How can there be a picture of Daniel and me with a child barely two in my arms!?My hand reached out for the frame as it traced over the carvings on the frame of the portrait. { ELEANOR ELINA CASSIAN DEVIN }{ CASSIAN DANIEL DEVIN }{ DANIELLE ERIS DEVIN }Reading the names all the sirens started ringing in my head as if alarming me. Telling me to run.Run far away and not to delve further into this chamber which has been hidden away for god knows how long.But my feet refused to move. I just couldn't take my eyes off the portrait. As if... as if it had enchanted me. Frozen me to the ground. Left me astounded and blank.Why?

Eleanor's P.O.V I don't know how but somehow I ended up in a room with Daniel and Henry's childhood friend, Rayene, Petroka, Devin, Valerie, Erina and, of course Henry and Petroka. And, if anyone is wondering where is Danielle. Then, she is sleeping in Rayene's room as she got tired after playing with her for the entire day."El? Are you okay?" Daniel's words brought me out of my thoughts as my eyes snapped to his hand which was placed over mine.I quickly pulled my hand back, feeling a little self conscious as my eyes snapped to Daniel's so called friend who wasn't giving me very great vibes. "I'm fine," I replied with a small smile, my eyes still fixed on his very neutral friend who was giving me some weird kind of gut feeling."You haven't eaten anything?" "I'm fine." I insisted as the air between Daniel and me somehow turned awkward. The air was somehow sensed by Henry as he piped in trying to dispel the awkwardness in the air, "So, El, meet our childhood friend. Her name is K

Eleanor's P.O.V "Rayene... Danielle..." Their names left my mouth as they both stared at me with eyes as soft as these royal cushions, as wide as the moon out there, as innocent as those little pups and as defenseless as me around Daniel. "Mom! Pleaseeeeee! Aunt Ray and I are meant to stay together forever! You can't separate us! Buhuuuu!" Danielle whined as she threw a tantrum on the bed making Henry giggle. But, the amused expression was soon converted into one of shock when Rayene decided that it was okay for a twenty one year old to throw a tantrum as if they were a seven year old.She too joined Danielle as both of them laid down on their backs on the bed, throwing their arms and feet left and right."El! You can't take away my niece from me! I don't allow it! No! No!" "Ray. Stop acting like Danielle. Henry slept on the couch yesterday because of the two of you." I scolded as Henry stood up from the couch and walked to us."Let them be, El. I'll be fine. Moreover, Rayene likes
