"But I also heard more" she said.
What more could there be to it, I thought.
"After you left to come to your room, they continued having their conversation and that's how I heard" she added.
I just stared at her, waiting for her to tell me what the heard.
"I heard the reason as to why they wanted to do such disgusting act with you, they said that if they all mated with you, they would all become immortal, just like you" she said.
My heart dropped right to the ground by hearing that. So, I was right, they were actually using me for a ritual.
"Gosh! I have been so stupid, for all these years, I haven't been able to understand what was going on" she scolded herself.
It was not like I was going to say she was in on it as well.
"For years, they have been bringing all sorts of women here and then, one day, she'll just die from the same sickness that you suffered from, it was only Spear's mother that was able to survive long enough to give birth to him, but she also died while giving birth to him" she said.
"They have brought more than ten women after her death and all didn't pass a month" she continued.
"You were the one that had reached more than that and I think they have also succeeded in whatever they are planning to do, I always knew that it just wasn't a coincidence that all the women they bring here always die with some unknown sickness, just like how your immortality isn't an accident" she said, getting up from the bed.
I felt that she knew more than she is letting on but I didn't try to push her further.
"Please, help me get out of this place" I begged her.
She just stood there with an uncertain look in her eyes.
"Look, keethana, it's not like I don't want to help you out, but it's hard, almost impossible" she said.
She was my only hope of getting out of here and if she is refusing to help as well, then I think the best option was for me to just kill myself, I thought.
I got up from the bed and walk over to the TV compartment, looking for something to hurt myself with.
I found something with a sharp edge and without thinking, I slit my wrist with it.
"Keethana" she screamed out my name and she was right before in the blink of an eye.
I feel to the ground as the blood rush start to over power me.
At that moment, I was so happy that I was going to die with my virtue intact.
But then, my celebration was cut short because by the time Naeemi picked up my hand to tend to the ripped vein, there was no cut there anymore, only the blood that has started gushing out had stained the place.
"Keethana" she called out, in surprise.
I pretended that I couldn't hear her as I had thought that I have gone already since I couldn't feel no physical pain anymore.
"Keethana, your hand, it's healed" she called out.
That caught my attention and I suddenly opened my eyes to see that she was speaking the truth.
I was so furious at that time.
"Now they have taken away my only source of freedom" I screamed out.
Suddenly, the word immortal made more sense to me. That meant that I won't ever die in my life. I have been turned into a vampire only with the blood sucking emitted.
I kept on screaming my heart while Naeemi tried to console me.
"I will help you out" she said.
