Eve~
They had no faces, but I heard their voices, every damn word laced with hate. They all pointed fingers at me.
"Cursed!"
"You will doom us all!"
"Kill yourself!"
I held my hands to my ears, willing myself not to listen, but to no avail. I could still hear them; they surrounded me. I clutched my chest as fear seemed to swallow me whole. I raised my head again, willing to beg for mercy now.
But my eyes widened as I came to the horrifying realization that it was not their fingers that were pointed at me. Now each of them had guns, all aimed at me.
They all cocked their guns with a terrifying click and pulled the trigger. A blood-curdling scream tore out of my throat as I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Princess, wake up," a voice broke through my terror.
I jerked away, thrashing against the hold I found myself in.
