unbridled [completed]

four: s a d i s t i c .

my heart rate echoes like the thrumming wings of a caged bird and i can feel the hair prickling against the back of my neck. fear encloses around me as angus grabs the newspaper from my trembling hands.

"if it makes ye canty, we hear 'at charlemagne is searchin' fur a new lead tae play in th' play, the memoirs of a geisha." i'd heard about that, actually. sheila, my soul mate, had dutifully passed on the message to me in the morning without an ounce of an explanation.

my face contorts into one of pity.
