The whispers consumed him, pulling him back and forth from the abyss. He knew they weren't there—deep down, far away, too close, a hair's breadth away, lost, gone—they weren't there in real life. Or was this real life—trapped forever looking into calculating eyes and a serpent's smile?

The whispers brushed his skin sometimes, like fingertips. He was trembling. He was flying, he was floating, he was falling.

The whispers brushed his cheeks, his brow, his jaw, his lips. They spoke of promises, happiness, love—they spoke only lies, but—

"Submit to me."

"Yes."

He had already fallen.
