'Why is this happening to us?' That is the number one question asked by our listeners. Well, I've got a story for everyone today that might shed some light on everything. Let me tell you about the legend of Twilight..." Listen up kiddies, because long ago there were three kingdoms. The more famous two were Midnight and Sunlight. Simple enough with the whole yin and yang thing. Castle Brightlight was blessed with the Sunlight magic and Castle Darklight was blessed with Midnight magic. Only one kingdom stood above the two and this was known as the Twilight Kingdom and they were said to be blessed with all the magic of the known universe. And yet the 3 kingdoms fell... Jane had heard the legend so many times she could recite the official story by heart. Yet in a world filled with death and destruction, the story didn't seem to matter..well to anyone but her. Jane risks it all to save the world and yet she harbors a deep secret that could cause her loved ones their lives.

Chapter 1 Prologue

Two years had passed since she'd last looked down from this cliff. Memories of the past screamed in her ears.

"No, no Prudence hold on. Please hold on!"

"I love you..."

She can still feel his hand in hers as he let go. Tears sting her eyes and her hands tighten their hold on the flowers. Gentle drops of rain begin to fall, wetting her clothes and sticking strands of hair to her face. She closes her eyes against the pain as images float through her mind.

"We're in this together, right?" He smiles at her and flips his ash blonde hair out of his hazel eyes.

"Together for eternity and more," he answers.

Anger rushes through her like fire as thoughts of the attack drown out her happy memories with him.

Stryder smiled at her before swinging his sword, severing the rope in one clean cut. The bridge falls to a tightrope and she only barely grabs hold of a loose strip. She catches his hand with an iron grip, crying out as their momentum stops, ripping her shoulder out of the socket. She looks over to where the others stood. At least they were halfway across and maybe they could reach the other side. They jerk and she looks up to see the frayed end of their rope begin to break.

Stryder was the one to steal their future away. He took everything from her in the breath of a moment. He'd stolen her true purpose for living.

He's almost within my grasp, baby. I'll make him pay for what he did.

She lays the rose bouquet before two lonely tombstones, her hand resting lovingly over the names written in the polished stone. Her vow hardens her heart and she turns away before the tears can fall.

A car waits for her at the bottom of the hill and she hesitates, looking into the abyss one final time.

"I love you," she whispers softly before walking down to the car and driving away.

Prince Cone, has always been hungry for more power and more and more. After his coronation, he attacked Salem. The attack was so unexpected, Salem never prepared for it. They were caught off guard.

As Lucien stared at her with the coldest eyes anyone can ever possess, he felt victory for the first time. He walked to the princess with the slave collar he'd won for ten years rattling in his hand as he walked. He reached close to her and with a swift movement, he collared her neck. Then, he tilted her chin up, staring into the bluest eyes and the most beautiful face ever created, he gave her a cold smile. "You are my acquisition. My slave. My sex slave. My property. I will pay you in spades, everything you and your father ever did to me and my people." He stated curtly. Pure hatred, coldness and victory was the only emotion on his face. .
