He was often reminded of his boundaries and the dangers of
going beyond his realm, but he had a mind of his own and wanted to explore the
forbidden grounds.
And now he had set his eyes on her and was consumed by the
desire to own her, oblivious to the obvious hurdles that lay between him and
her.
He would get her today, he thought as he set out fearlessly, taking care not to invite any
attention.
He hoped she didn't scream as her eyes remained fixed in
horror as he advanced swiftly, but just as he was about to grab her, he heard
a scream behind.
