I never took the time to fully observe the lodge. Despite the circumstances, it was really pretty. A little mess here and there but it was a nice place.
I sat in place at the dining table covered in a red table cloth in the main room. Rotten meat (human?) and other mashed remains lathered the table. Gross.
Anna came from upstairs carrying what seemed to be the box from earlier. Which of course the box inhabited granola bars and a twenty pound weight. I'm still not sure why the weight is there but I'm guessing she uses it to workout. But I'm sure by now she can lift a far heavier weight than that.
As my mind lingered on the thought my eyes wondered up to Anna's arms. She was strong and her arm were so defined and muscular. I shook my head and avoided eye contact with her, my face turned a light shade of pink.

"Are you okay?" Anna asked, "you look sick." She examined my face as it grew a darker shade of pink as she kept looking at me.

"Stop looking at me." I turned to look away from her and cover my face with my hands.

Anna studied me before reacting to my obvious embarrassment. She smiled softly but deviously like she had a hidden motive behind her kind smile.
I peeked at her from between my fingers and made direct eye contact with her. I quickly hit my eyes again. I felt her rough but gentle hands slowly remove each hand from my face.

"Your eyes are pretty." Anna said as she moved her hand to stroke my face.

How did I get myself into this? One minute I'm living alone in the woods fending for myself just struggling to find food. The next I'm taken by some entity to join its little game. To watch us suffer for its own enjoyment. But now I'm in some silly romance book with the very killer who was supposed to take my life.

I sigh and shake my head leaning my face towards Anna's. You're overthinking it Jake. My mind clears and seems like time stops as Anna and I are gazing into each other's eyes. Our faces were so close that if one of use move a single inch closer our lips would interlock.
     I yearned for a romance between her and I. A kiss is all I needed. At this moment I wanted the love and attention of another that I had not received for a long time. I'm stuck in the entity's realm but can that really deny me love?

My thoughts were washed away as Anna pushed me closer to her and we were then locked into a passionate kiss. Could love in the fog coexist with the entity's ever growing desire to watch us suffer?
