"Cleo, look at me!" I try to open my eyes and look at Alex but my eyes are heavy and everything hurts. I feel my brain try and process what is happening. Why is he crying?
The tears are falling from his eyes and I think I am being held in his arms. I try to reach out and clean his tears but my hands are so heavy...
"NICO!" He screams clenching me tighter. I try to tell him to let go, his arms are crushing me, but my voice doesn't come out "NICO, CLEO IS HURT!"
I hear someone else say something, another pair of hands pass through my hair. They seem to want me to live. I grab on to that thought and hold onto it as hard as I can.
"Stay with us Cleo..." someone says, and I think the voice is so familiar. "Please, princess..."
His voice is so compelling, it makes me want to hear it forever. Pain shoots through me again making me scream and my vision disappear into black dots. I feel someone touch my face, and it was so warm and so comforting I let myself rest just for a second...
The world goes black.
I let go of the string holding me awake.

A/N I am sorry whoever took the time to read some of this, I accidently posted the second and first chapters and not the first 😅 sorry!!
Also this story contains detailed mention of rape and abuse as well as other traumatic topics. This story is NOT true or accurate and was concocted from my imagination so I'm sorry if it offends anyone.
Thank you for taking the time to read it and please comment
