Isabelle

My eyes felt heavy as I tried to open them, the softness of the surface underneath me was surprisingly new as though I was on a bed. I could feel the particular race in my heartbeats once I realized someone's presence beside me. I tried to move but my body felt trapped under a heavyweight that would crush me if I moved any further.

What if they have caught me? No!No!No! I can't let it happen, I need to run away before they kill me. I need to...

Before the completion of my thoughts the fear that'd consumed me lifted the weight over my body, I opened my eyes and shot up straight. Panic rushed through my veins before I could even take in my surroundings.

My hands shook and my eyes began tearing up, the thought of what they might do to me made my heart sink in fear. I clutched the silk bed sheets tightly, the thought of processing the surrounding didn't come to my mind. Fear--It was the only thing I could feel.

"Kaden, She's awake ," A voice that came from the side of the room was what broke my daze. My stare moved to where the sound had come from.

I spotted a guy standing at the corner of the room.

Who is Kaden? What if he's one of them?

More tears rolled down my cheeks, my heart thundered against my chest. I moved back till my back rested hit the headboard. I could not control my overwhelming fear.

The first sob escaped my mouth, "Please don't kill me, please," I shielded myself.

Suddenly I felt a light touch on my hand, the contact made me flinch but the person didn't move their hand. Whoever it was, his touch was very gentle. Too gentle to consider it to be one of my captors but again, I couldn't get myself to relax.

The small sobs constantly left my mouth and my body shook due to the impact.

I felt the dip on the side and my breathing got caught in my throat but then I heard a soothing voice speaking, "Shh...You're safe, no one is going to hurt you,"

My body reacted on its own, and I found myself raising my head to look at the person. It took me a moment to recognize him, he looked very familiar, and the memory of what had happened in the forest crossed my mind.

He was the one who'd saved me from those unknown animals.

"You won't hurt me?" I questioned, though it was even lower than a whisper he seemed to hear it, and his answer came almost instantly.

"Yes, I won't hurt you, Isabelle," For some reason my name falling from his mouth felt like the frigid ice inside of me had thawed. I could not tear my gaze away from him.

Could he be lying to me? He saved me once but what if he turns out evil like them too?

"You are not lying to me? Are you?" I sniffled wiping my tears with the back of my hand, I still hadn't moved an inch from my place. Even though he indicated no danger I was still unable to fully trust him.

"I'm not lying to you, Angel," He cooed his hand moved to caress my cheek, he gently wiped my tears with the pad of his thumb. His touch caused a spark to spread throughout my body and I found myself leaning into it whilst my eyes closed on their own.
