Prologue: A Haunting Past
Bella's POV
They say when you are dying its peaceful but why is it so horrible. I thought it was supposed to be flashbacks of your life but all I could see was his face, the face of my worst nightmare. Today had been great it was peaceful and relaxing. I was visiting my dad in North Carolina, the warm sun shining down on me with waves crashing in the background, this was my safe haven, or so I thought. Memories were haunting me in the darkness. Slowly coming out of the darkness I could hear someone calling my name, their voice strained and in pain. I thought angels were supposed to be happy and sound like wind chimes.
"Bells..Bella….wake up bella….NOW DAMMIT WAKE UP!" Why was the voice yelling at me? It sounded hurt in pain but I was in pain too, it hurt. I was slowly leaving the darkness but as I did it hurt. My wrist felt like it went two different ways , and my legs they felt on fire. The fire lead up to my girlie bits they felt like flames would be there. Coming out of the darkness made it worse, it felt like I was torn I was coming apart splitting right down the center. The pain made me scream. I slowly opened my eyes scared to see who was with me. I had to open my eyes I couldn't stay in darkness with the face. It was more tourture to face the face than it was to feel the pain. Pain meant that I was alive the pieces of the face meant I was in hell, my own personal hell.
As I opened my eyes I saw my dad. Red eyes that were puffy from crying, but why I was here alive with him. I slowly opened my mouth ignoring the pain in my throat. "D-ddd-dad…," I barely croaked out. He was here with me but where was here. The room was bright forcing me to close my eyes suddenly. It was to bright to be nighttime but it wasn't day either it was all white. While trying to figure out where I was and find my voice again to ask he interrupted my thoughts.
"Shhhh baby girl rest, just don't go back to seep before I get the doctors." What was he talking about doctors. I had only been at the beach, what happened? I tried to remember but then it hit me in my flashbacks. Times like today were time I wished I still lived in North Carolina. It was warm . relaxing, the bright sun shining down on me with the tide rushing in. I was here for the summer visiting my dad during my break from school. I had just told my dad I was double majoring in culinary and English. He wasn't to happy but he supported me no matter what. He was working so he had told me to go enjoy the sun and beach since we didn't have this in London my new home. After enjoying my day at the beach and watching the sun set I was walking back to my dads beach house I was lost in thoughts until a heard a scruffy voice from behind me calling. The voice was close to close I could feel the hand on my hip and his lips next to my hair.
"Daddy, please tell me it didn't happen…ple-ple-pppppleaseee tell me it didn't," I cried. It couldn't happen I didn't deserve this, I was only 21. I had never done anything to deserve this was God punishing me? I couldn't bare to think what happened it hurt to much physically and emotionally. I was sobbing now my heart was racing. "Ddd-daddy, ttteel mmmmmee itt dddidnt hhhappen…" I stuttered.
