Page 1 of The General’s Captive (The Rift #1)

L ooking back on my life didn’t take me long as I hadn’t really had a chance to do much with it before chaos claimed it. But then I wasn’t the only one as chaos had claimed many and had cut even more short.

Did that make me one of the lucky ones?

I never thought of myself as a survivor before it happened. I came to learn, like most people living a normal life, that it was actually sheltered. Safe, for the most part.

Oh, how wrong I had been.

Because just like everyone else, we had no idea what was on the other side.

We had no idea how so many mythologies came to be told. Why they had been passed down through the ages with no idea where they came from and in fact it wasn’t just stories told to children or to ensure the masses believed in the gods.

No… they had been a warning.

A warning that one day they would come back and that a dark God would lead them. He was known as nothing more than The General. But to me, he was so much more.

He was the master of my dreams.

And in them, he wanted one thing…

To take me as his captive.
