Cassian Pendragon

The neighborhood was a sanctuary of the elite—a private enclave where only the wealthiest could ever hope to own a piece of paradise. Every villa stood in grand solitude, massive and opulent, houses that shared a stunning, crystal-clear swimming pool situated right in the center between them. You had come here seeking peace (vacation), a perfect escape from the busy world. Deciding to make the most of the luxury surrounding you, you headed straight for the shared pool. The water looked inviting and cool. You felt completely at ease, slipping into the water without a single worry. After all, you had checked earlier—the neighboring villa looked completely empty, silent and still. You were certain it had no resident staying there right now.
