Cam was neither outside nor inside. He stood in his dorm room, but it could be any place he wanted it to be. He sat down on the soft grass on the edge of the lonely, windswept cliff in Ireland. The warm sunshine and sparkling blue sea helped him calm down. He looked down at the white envelope with the broken gold seal clutched in his hands. Cam frowned and opened it again, removing the letter written in cursive and gold ink.

So, we finally have a chance to play a game together. It's a deadly game and the stakes are high. It is not too late to back out, Cam. I will give you some time to reconsider. But if you do decide to continue, here are the rules:

1. She is safe in any dorm room or any place private.

2. She is not safe in any public space.

3. From this day forward, you will receive clues before it happens. (Because I do enjoy playing this game with you and I do not want it to end too soon. Never assume that Lucifer cannot be generous, my friend.)

The envelope was on his desk when he stepped in his room that night, a week ago. He thought the worse part of his evening was watching Luce and Daniel kissing in bed. He was wrong. Seeing Lucifer's letter in his room made him sick. It was only a message, but it felt like an intrusion, an unwelcome visit. His room was tainted by this vile letter. Cam had repeatedly tried to burn the letter and envelope, but they would just reappear moments later.

Staring at the sea impassively, he ripped up the letter and flung the pieces into the air. Seconds later, a new letter materialized in the envelope. Cam could feel doubt and fear creeping into his mind. But for Luce's sake, he would not fail.

Kate's Notes:

Hey, everyone! 147 views now! Wow. Thank you again for reading my story. I have good news and bad news. The good news is I am going to try to post up some new scenes (a new "chapter") every Wednesday, from now on. The bad news is that each chapter will only have a few very short scenes, like this one. I will try to limit myself to 250-300 words for each scene. Though this one is 319 words. I guess it's ok if I don't go over the limit too much.

The reason why I'm doing this is I just don't have a ton of time to write like I did in the past anymore. I was going to give up writing this fanfiction, but then it made me sad to abandon my story and never see certain scenes (I have so many notes for scenes!) I thought of come to life, in a way. Also, I don't want to disappoint the people that are following my story and looking forward to how it turns out. I also wonder how it will turn out! Lol. I'm not sure yet...

So...this is my solution. To only focus on important scenes and try to write more simply, without worrying too much about all the details and wording. This way, I can write faster and hopefully still keep the story interesting. I think you will still be able to understand the story ok, though i might have to...leave out a lot of things. I'm not sure yet. But I figure it's better to have bits and pieces of the story written down than giving up on it entirely.

I am also not sure if I will ever go back and try to make the scenes longer and tie it all together better. I probably won't have the time or motivation to do it. Lol.

So...I hope that I can capture the essence of the story in a series of very short scenes. Lol. I think it will force me to really get to the point and not waste time. I hope everyone does not mind too much... If you do decide to stop reading, I totally understand. Thank you for liking my story and reading this far.

For those of you that decide to keep reading and seeing what I can come up with, THANK YOU! I really do love to write and I have a lot of nice ideas for this story that I want to share with you all. I do sometimes have writer's block or too much stuff going on to write. But I think I can at least do one short scene a week. I really want to be able to finish writing this story. Making myself write 1-3 very short scenes a week might be a good way to make sure I don't give up on it. *fingers crossed*

BY THE WAY, DID YOU SEE THE COVER FOR UNBROKEN? Lauren Kate's book about Cam that is coming this November. I love it. They released the prologue too, but I didn't get a chance to read it yet. Excited about this book, though I don't like Lilith and the idea of Cam having to save her. Lol. But I guess I don't know enough about her to really hate her.
