As the day wore on, Annabelle found herself glancing at the clock every few minutes, counting down the hours until nightfall. She couldn't shake the feeling off.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, Annabelle made her way to the garden, her heart pounding in her chest. The moon cast eerie shadows on the ground, and the trees seemed to loom over her like sentinels.

Her mother was already there, her figure shrouded in darkness. "Annabelle, I'm glad you came," she whispered, her voice trembling.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldHEbPsd7u
"What is it, Mother?" Annabelle demanded, her patience wearing thin. "What secrets have you been keeping?"
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2tClEPb02
Her mother took a deep breath before speaking, her words spilling out in a rush. "The scroll, Annabelle... it's a family heirloom. One that holds the key to our family's power."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ372BCksoWd
Annabelle's eyes widened as her mother's words hung in the air. Power? What kind of power?
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDSiqFfmBO
And then, her mother dropped the bombshell: "You're not who you think you are, Annabelle. You're part of something much bigger than yourself."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1SfyWHMGr
Annabelle's world went spinning. What did her mother mean?
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JFQq5TnGi
Annabelle's mind reeled as she tried to process her mother's words. "What do you mean?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbLNJMRkzX
Her mother hesitated, glancing around the garden nervously. "We're not just a family, Annabelle. We're a legacy. A legacy of power and magic."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXFYyicFSz
Annabelle's eyes widened in shock. "Magic?" she repeated.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWIBizIFN9
Her mother nodded. "Yes, magic. Our family has been hiding in plain sight for centuries, wielding power and influence. And you, Annabelle, are the key to it all."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKK7zM4J4y
Annabelle's head spun as she tried to wrap her mind around the revelation. Magic? Legacy? It sounded like a fairy tale.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJiOrXPh5t
But her mother's next words sent chills down her spine: "You're in danger, Annabelle. There are those who would stop at nothing to claim our family's power for themselves."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjS37bBtpi
Suddenly, the strange occurrences and eerie feelings made sense. Annabelle was being targeted.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcPL10OGmS
Her mother grasped her hand, her eyes pleading. "You must be careful, Annabelle. Trust no one. Not even Phoebe."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiVWNC4MXN
Annabelle's heart raced as she realized the truth. Her family's secrets were deadly.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnchqDAoZq
Annabelle's mind was racing with questions, but before she could ask any of them, her mother vanished into the night, leaving her alone in the garden.

As she stood there, trying to make sense of everything, Annabelle heard a rustling in the bushes. She spun around, her heart pounding, and that's when she saw him - a tall, dark figure emerging from the shadows.

"Who are you?" Annabelle demanded, trying to keep her voice steady.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bjNTJQowI
The figure stepped closer, his features illuminated by the moonlight. Annabelle gasped as she recognized the piercing blue eyes and chiseled jawline.

"It's me, Liam," he said, his voice low and husky. "I've been watching over you, Annabelle. Keeping you safe."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCgO4ZRsAJ
Annabelle's mind reeled as she tried to process this new revelation. Liam, the mysterious stranger she had met in the woods in her dream , was somehow real and connected to her family's secrets.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8RaZ5gZF4
"Why?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0eOcRsTme
Liam's eyes locked onto hers, his expression intense. "Because you're in grave danger, Annabelle. And I'm the only one who can protect you."
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGDRIoG68D
As he spoke, Annabelle felt her legs go numb. She didn't know what to believe or who to trust. But one thing was certain - her life is becoming a roller coaster.
