EMELINE

Empty.

Everything was just so bland. No color, no sound, and no peace. Where was I?

"Emeline?" Someone whispered softly.

Please don't go away.

Please stop the pain.

I'm dying. I deduced with a grim realization.

Please help.

"Emeline?"

The voice sounded farther away as I welcomed the white blinding pain again...

Sound...

There were so many static sounds.

Where was I?

"I did what was necessary for her to stay sane. You can't seriously blame me for what that poor excuse of a woman did, do you?"

"You didn't think to stop her before everything went out of hand. She has triggered the curse, dammit! You know she'll change and it will be your fault!"

"Yeah right, anything happens just throw me the blame! It's easier that way, isn't it? Oh, he's already evil, why not blame him even more, right?"

I tried opening my mouth to tell them to go to hell but I couldn't even move my lips a centimeter. The ringing in my ears grew the more their voice raised.

Please stop...

Please let me sleep in peace...

"Look! I think she's moving her toe." Someone whispered, sounding not far away.

"You think?" This one sounded harsher, like thunder?

"Fine, let me check." If checking meant setting my whole body on fire then I didn't want this freaking check. And, why on earth was I feeling like someone had thrown me out of a thirteen-floor window and then crushed me under a truck at the same time?

Come on, eyes, open!

"What do you think?"

"Her pulse is falling."

If I mistakenly ended up in hell, that's what I expected to hear every day when I heard voices getting frantic and too much louder for my poor ear to conceal. Was I in demons' land or something?

"YOU SAID SHE WOULD BE FINE! YOU LIED-"

"Shut it." I choked out.

I heard a rush of air.

"Did you hear what I-"

The second voice agreed with a sigh. "Yeah, I did too."

"Rise and shine, birthday girl. Someone's late to their own party." Opening my eyes seemed harder than any other day as if someone glued them together as a prank. After my fourth try, I blinked twice, opening my eyes only to close them again.

Freaking sunlight!

"Water," I whispered at the same time someone thrust a glass of water in my shaky hands.

Once I was fully satisfied to clench my thirst, the same person took the glass and wrapped their arms around me to help me sit properly. The other person in the room covered the window, the curtains whooshing at the force they used.

With the damn light gone, I finally dared to open my eyes to take into my surrounding. Someone must have left me on a soft king-sized bed with lace curtains hiding my view to the right. To my left, red walls surrounded me, not to mention the large bookshelf was also reflecting the color. The first thing that came to my mind was this place radiated nobility.

So, what was I doing here?

The realization that I was not in my room was what made me quickly stumble from the bed. Now that the right side was exposed to me, I noticed two men watching me with interest.
