The monstrous ‘bird’ began scraping it’s hooked claws across the floor, creeping towards me slowly, as if I was unsuspecting prey. I felt light-headed and my head began to spin. It could sense my fear, I was sure of it. All this while, it’s piercing gaze never leaving mine. Covered in black feathers that resembled a dark night, the bird looked like a menacing cross-breed between a vulture and a stork. Where would I go? How far could I reach with that hobble anyway? I watched in horror as the glass slid higher and higher until the ‘bird’ squeezed itself in and magnificently landed on my marble floor with a thud. There was so much pain that I couldn’t even bolt. Swamped with fear, I felt my heartbeat pound in my ears. It was almost a silent sound, but enough to make the creature pause, cock its head to one side and straighten its back, obviously threatened by the noise. Slowly backing away, pain shot up my leg. The way the creature lifted the thick glass with no difficulty, I knew there was no telling what it could actually be capable of. I broke out in a sweat even though a gush of cold air found its way into the bedroom. It hooked its oversized talon on the handle of the window panel and slowly began to raise it. In that spur of the moment, the monster of a bird made its move. My mind began to run, should I scream, or pinch myself to snap out of this ‘dream?’ I stood there clueless, helpless, completely terrified out of my wits. I felt my body begin to cringe, causing my insides to shrivel.

The bird kept gawking at me with it’s steely gaze eyes completely fixated on my moving form. I gasped and backed away a few steps glad my bladder was empty. It was huge - almost as big as a wild snow wolf! My mind froze still. But no! As I carefully peered at it with eyes still adjusting to the light and reeling from shock, the actual size of it dawned upon me. Was it really a ‘bird?’ It has to be, I comforted myself. I instinctively placed my right palm on my thundering heart and willed myself to calm down. There, standing right outside my window sill was the biggest ‘bird’ I had ever seen poised completely still with such majestic. The instant bright light made my eyebrows curve into a furrow and blink vigorously… it took me at least a few seconds before I could finally see again. I scrambled around till I found the light switch and flicked it on. Once I was done and out of the toilet - sleep now thoroughly evaded - my limbs still felt wobbly. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and continued limping in sheer darkness. A sigh of relief escaped my lips when the pain didn’t shoot up my leg, as it had the first time. I lowered my foot shakily back down, testing the waters. In all irony, I leaned against the very furniture that inflicted pain, to nurse the injured foot back to life by massaging it with gentle pressure. Shoots! I cursed as the cupboard packed a punch against my foot. Why did I have to gulp down an entire bottle at bedtime anyway? Rushing to get the deed done, I hadn’t even switched on the lights. That heavy feeling… mixed with unearthly grogginess. I grumbled as my feet shuffled heavily, attempting to drag myself to the loo at three in the morning. Each vampire is deadlier than the other, and Robyn soon realizes she would need her wits to find her sister. Too bad they don’t get along!īut Robyn needs her focus, because no matter how captivating and gorgeous Dante may seem, her motive is way beyond him. His brown wavy locks, captivating eyes, and rippled muscles are the only thing that keeps Robyn going.

Even if the search didn’t finally destroy Robyn, succumbing to Dante Ivanov’s - a mortal born to protect the vampires - deadly looks, just may. Her job of searching for her sister would place Robyn in the midst of blood-sucking creatures and passages with cryptic clues that never ended. But it would be a breeze! That thought was the only mistake Robyn made. So she set off, into the Castle, into the hell she never anticipated she would set foot in.
