How long had I been trapped here?
Time had blurred into a continuous loop of darkness and despair in
this cold cell beneath the coven’s luxurious estate. It might have been three
months or even more since I’d been betrayed and incarcerated by those I’d
once called family.

The air felt cold and tasted metallic. I could no longer perceive what was
the scent of my blood coating the damp stone walls or the smell of urine and
sweat. I could only hug my bruised and battered body on the thin cot,
attempting to keep myself from freezing.
Theo, whom I’d once laughed with, had turned into the harbinger of my
torment. His eyes, once warm and friendly, now gleamed with cruelty that
chilled me to the bone as he demanded, every time he came, that I surrender
my magic to the coven.
But he was nothing compared to Miss Clarissa Vane, one of my teachers at
Arcanum Academy, whose sadistic talents turned the fabric of nightmares into
reality. With her twisted magic, she could weave dreams so vivid, so terrifying,
that even the strongest were reduced to tears, and she inflicted them on me
daily, trying to terrorize me into relinquishing my magic. Her cruel delight in
my torment was a clear testament to the darkness that had seeped into our
coven.
But I resisted.
Every single time.
The agony of the beatings and the sting of betrayal were unbearable, yet
the thought of relinquishing my magic to them was an even greater torment. It
belonged to me, and only me.
The single meal they provided each day was just enough to keep me
clinging to life, yet deliberately insufficient to leave me weak and powerless. A
cruel reminder of how far I had fallen. While hunger slowly ceased to gnaw at
me, thirst became an unrelenting tormentor. Dehydration left me dizzy and
frail, often too weak to stand. The headaches and dry mouth were constant,
painful companions in my captivity. The pain from the beatings, the icy floor,
and the tight cuffs around my wrists and ankles, which prevented me from
using my magic in retaliation, seeped deep into my being, reminding me of my
utter helplessness.
Everyone had turned their back on me, leaving me abandoned and
forgotten. The only break in the silence came from my ragged breathing and
the distant sounds of the coven’s life going on without me.
How could they treat me like this?
Yet, amid all forms of brutality, none cut as deeply as that of Lia, my best
friend, my almost sister. Her visits were the sharpest form of torture. She’d
stand just out of reach, her face twisted into a cruel sneer, taunting me with
words that pierced deeper than any whip.
