Third Person POV:
Austin held Marlene's body, waiting for her to wake up. From his perspective, only an hour had passed, but he knew that just this hour would be a lifetime for Marlene. The perfect illusion traps he set up slowly eroding her mind, the extreme increase in her emotions, plus everything he is making her go through, will break through all the barriers in Marlene's heart.
He already had a part of her heart, but after this, there would be nothing in the world that will stop Marlene from trying to be with him. In all matters of the word, she would be completely in love with him.
"Urgh....."
Hearing Marlene moan out, his eyes focused on her. Her eyelids were slowly trembling. Right now, Austin was leaning against the wall while tightly clutching onto Marlene. The current situation is quite ambiguous, but Austin knew such a situation was required for what is to come. Soon, Marlene's eyes opened, her gaze focusing on him.
