Chapter-5 

Waking up...I moaned from the tapping sun-light against my face, eyes squint shut trying to ward off the filtered sunlight drifting in my room. I pulled the duvet up over my head to keep it out. It's not going to work, my brain is awake now. When I sat up, I could see dust-motes dancing in the wall of light. I yawned and moved out of my bed to realize how much each and every joint in my body ached.  

What happened last night? Why am I reeking like a skunk? Why can't I remember anything? 

I reached for my phone when I heard the beep sound 

The display showed (1) message from unknown, I hit the open button to see

You have nothing to fear as long as you keep your mouth shut 

                                                                                               -Trevor

A ghostly whiteness spread all over my face when I looked down at the black lacy dress which was now covered in mud. 

A vague memory of last night crept in my head; I shut my eyes tight and concentrated to remember what happened 

memories flashed like lightning

Trevor's mansion, party, Karen, Revenge, blood, fangs, woods, asylum...Erick 

Why are you doing this to me? 

W-wh-what are you? 

Trevor pushed me and my back hit a tree 

His eyes turned dark and something white, shinny and sharp came out of his mouth 

He replied in a steely tone, what do you think?  

And everything went blank 

With the horror expression still evident on my face, I locked up myself and curled under the sheets. I just wanted this nightmare to end soon and when I wake up with a dropped jaw, buggy eyes and sweaty palms I will be happy saying  

It was all just a dream. 

It was all just a dream. 

It was all just a dream. 

AWESOME! 

I avoided looking at the clock fearing the slow passing of time that will only seem slower if I watch its progress 

It's been around four hours now, I hurt myself (physically) in all possible ways to wake up from the nightmare but still nothing changed.  

The faint knock at the door which was continued by the maid's voice made me rise from the bed to reach the door knob. I cracked the door open to find Martha smiling at me with breakfast on the tray.  

I let her in. When she placed the tray on the table and turned her heels towards the bathroom to set the towel and bathrobe, I spoke in a trembling tone 

Martha, I don't remember coming back home myself, what happened last night? 

Mr. Kingston bought you home Ms. June, he told that you were lost in the woods and when he found you, you were being unconscious. She answered with suspicious eyes. 

I started to panic as soon as those words left her mouth 

That's not true. I could remember every single thing that happened last night 

When I was about to tell her the truth, I heard Trevor's steely tone at the back of my head 

So if you are going to tell someone what u saw in there, then I will make u spend the rest of your life at asylum and if u think spending life at a madhouse is better, then who is going to rescue your pathetic little boyfriend from my custody.
