I felt something on my forehead. I shook my head to get it off of me.
It tickled.
I shook my head again. It didn't budge!
"Wake up, my love."
My eyes opened that very instant.
I blinked them to get the blurriness out. Where was I? This was not where I was staying.
I sat up on the bed and the covers fell off.
My eyes met his.
I did not know he was sitting there.
I raked my eyes over his clothes somehow expecting the blood to be on them. I remember what happened last night. He had definitely changed his clothes because even though they were dark in colour I could not see the blood.
"Wh-you . ." I stared at him as I fumbled for words. "you . ."
"Are a creature of the dark?" He added with a slight tilt of head.
I shook my head. "That's not what I wanted to say but yes." That was a bitter truth as well.
Since she had set it himself it only meant that whatever I knew was too true.
