Prologue

The grip on my wrist was getting stronger, I knew that. How could I not? The fingers were cold, rough and brutally digging into my arm. But I also could feel, as this pressure increased, myself slipping away. My mind was clouding, my body growing numb, and all my eyes could focus on was the dead, piercing stare in front of me, semi covered by a few stray dark blond locks.

"Trust me…" his voice whispered. The sound sent chills down my spine. I tried to reason, but any time I did, the pressure came back, and I was brought back to him. Were my feet touching the ground? I was falling, slipping, deep into his grip. Behind me, I heard another voice, so sweet, calm, low, recognizable. I felt his cold lips near my ear, raising the hair on my neck.

"Trust us." Should I? My heart said yes. Did I ever listen to my mind? Not often. Would one more time hurt? Confusion, exhaust, was taking over me. I was dizzy from the heat inside me and the growing pressure expanding from my right arm. The eyes on me were stabbing into me, as if reading my mind…the cold sensation in my back was pulling me away from reasoning.

Why was this happening? I trusted them, or I had…before. Now, I didn't know. My heart was hammering against my chest; my breathing was labored, slow, and painful. Their scent was intoxicating me, pulling me further into their strange, sickening embrace. I forced myself to close my eyes, to shut his glare out. Again, the hand on my wrist tightened. I heard a shuffling close by, and felt someone come to me. Two little hands placed themselves on my face, and I opened my eyes to the sudden freezing sensation. It felt as if the hands had just been dipped in a pool of frozen water. I looked at the pale, small, feminine, so familiar face surrounded by short black hair looking straight at me with a soothing, kind face. I exhaled.

"Come, Nessie darling. There's nothing to be afraid of." The voice rang in my ears, high pitched and clear. She smiled and took my hand, leading me outside.
