RUN IF YOU STILL CAN
HIDE AS LONG AS YOU WANT
BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER...
I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN.

Maeve Alice shouted at the top of her lungs when the nightmare visited her again, water gushing from a nearby brook filled her ears, letting her eyes roam around the dim forest, laid back she made when bats suddenly appeared.

"You're awake"

Maeve's heartbeat became faster than the usual, Those thin lips made her lips tremble, those cold eyes made her feel chills into her body. She rolled herself at the cold dead ground while sobbing.

"Please don't hurt me, please don't"

She was begging to be spared. The handsome man squatted in front of her, it's manly scent drilled her nose but it never took Maeve's worries away.

"I'm not gonna hurt you my lady"

Maeve briskly sat up with high hopes on her face, she wanted to go home so bad, but the thick mist was clouding the way, horror trees was like looking at the every inch of her move. The man was gawking in front of her when it lended his hand.

"I'll take you home"

Without doubts, Maeve took the man's hand until she felt heavy, her eyelids were slowly closing, making her visions blurry.

The man poisoned her, she thought.

False hopes shattered as she felt being brought up by the strangers strong arms, numb was already eating her up until she faded into darkness.
