Another short and sweet one!

Chapter 25 – Becca

I didn't sleep last night. It was like a camera had flashed in my eyes and I'd been blinded for a moment, but now everything I'd seen in the past weeks became clear. Details that I hadn't thought odd before filtered in to clarify the image. The result was a picture of a nightmare.

I'm normally a pretty observant person. I'd been lulled into false comfort by dangerous dreams of stability, love and beauty, and freedom without consequences. They were siren calls, masking danger, and I'd fallen for it.

I headed out into the forest, hoping to catch my quarry. I'd left a message at the pond, but it probably wasn't necessary. If the stories were true, they'd see me before I saw them.

And if was I sure about one thing, it's that the stories were true.

Oh! It's all about to go down now! Hope you enjoy. Please review / follow!
