After their little kissing competition, Yvonne sat at least five feet away from them and looked at them vigilantly. The servants had brought their meal over and Yvonne was slurping the rich and creamy tomato soup whose warmth spread to her empty tummy. They had their dinner in silence and after they were done, the family of three moved to the parlor. The St. Claire couple sat together on one large sofa and Yvonne sat opposite them. 'I need to find out more about this body and this world.' She…-

When the man saw her frowning face, he immediately stood up and strode towards her. 'Why is he coming here?' Yvonne took a few steps back when she saw him moving towards her. But the man was quick and he reached her in a matter of seconds and he bent down to carry her in his arms. 'What is with these people and carrying me around like I am some doll!?' She struggled in his arms and glared at the man but he did not pay attention to her actions. He was busy glaring at Mrs. Jacinth who was now…

"Will I ever get to see them again?" She thought of this and felt a shooting pain in her chest. "What about my grandpa and Vince? How will they know that I am here?" Tears started welling up in her eyes. The confidence she had earlier that her grandpa would certainly find her, had now vanished and in its place was a desolateness she experienced for the very first time. She did not even feel this lonely when she had heard the news of her parents' death. But now she felt that she was all alone…

When Yvonne woke up from her slumber, the sun was already setting outside and the room was filled with bold orange hues that made it look magical. She sat up straight and looked around her. 'Still in the same place huh?' She sighed and thought of the stuff that had exploded up in her mind. When she was asleep, things that she had no knowledge about earlier were now clear and evident in her mind. 'The capital of the Kingdom of Rosenhyde is Amarthea.' 'The Earldom of the St. Claire's family is…

"The last thing I remember?" Yvonne thought of her conversation with that big bird and then how she kept falling and falling until she woke up. 'I better not tell them about my dream, they'll think that I've gone crazy!' She shook her head and then looked at Mr. Toone. "I remember falling down and then when I woke up, I was on the floor." She pointed at the place next to her bed that she had fallen when she woke up. "Hmmm…" Mr. Toone just nodded his head and rubbed his chin in contemplation.…

Yvonne looked down at her feet and just stared at them blankly. 'Are the drug's effects not over yet?' She crouched down and touched her feet. She then stood back up and looked around. The bed that she was on looked higher than usual and she had just noticed that everything looked so big and strange. 'Did I shrink or get teleported to Lilliput?' She chuckled at her joke and looked at her surroundings. As she was looking around, she heard footsteps once again so she quickly hid behind the…

*Thud* Yvonne jolted awake from her slumber by a loud noise. The last thing that she remembers before she lost her consciousness was falling from a height and crashing into something soft. She opened her eyes and found herself all entangled in her comforter and when she tried to get out, it just got more messed up and complicated. She could feel the floor's coldness seeping into her butt because she was right now on the floor. 'I must have fallen down in my sleep.' She guessed the reason and…

"Finally the human speaks something of value." He gave a low laugh and flew forward. As he zoomed forward, Yvonne's legs moved on their own accord as they inched backward. "Take another step and you'll fall to your death." The bird spoke and successfully threatened her into standing still. "So you want to know why I have brought you here?" He was so close to her that his beak touched Yvonne's nose and she stiffly nodded her head in answer. "Have you heard of the name 'The love that breaks…

*Boom!* Yvonne held her ears to shield it from the loud noise and shut her eyes. 'Did something explode? Am I dead?' She peeked through one eye to see what the evil entity possessing Butler Powell's body had done to her. But she quickly opened her other eye and looked around at her surroundings in awe. 'Huh? Is this Heaven?' She looked at the clouds that went through her and she put her hand forward to feel it. "This isn't Heaven but I can send you there with just a snap of my finger." She…

'Huh where am I?' Yvonne looked around and found everything was a big ball of nothing. She turned around but found that her surroundings were just empty. She looked down and could see her bare feet but she could not see what she was standing on. There was no ground beneath her feet. 'Is this a dream?' She pinched her arms and did not feel any pain. 'Huh? Is my brain's cortex this weak that I can't even dream of something nice? Just a big blank!' She criticized her own brain and made a tsk tsk…
