For a moment my world stopped, and my eyes began filling with tears as I watched the only person who made me want to break out of my shell fall to her death. How can she be so cruel? My subconscious questioned. She promised she would not do anything that would bring her harm, but I was wrong.
A loud roar of thunder made the ground shake once more. A lighter shade of red decorated the scythe as my knees turn weak. I let myself fall. My hands began to shake, I have had blood on my hands before but hers? It is quite unbearable. She died in front of my eyes, and I stared helplessly.
Is it my fault? Do I owe her more than that?
Memories of Zadie flooded my brain rendering me insane. The way we danced at the ball, my hands around her waist and the way her dress hugged her tightly like it was designed especially for her. The way her smile beamed when she wanted to coerce me to do something for her benefit. I cannot seem to get her out of my brain. I am fully intoxicated by her. I can still smell her scent sending me into a delirium state.
If I could turn back time I would and bring her back to me. Nothing would make me more elated than having her beside me. Arius is raging. I can feel him. His rage is burning my body as he seeks an escape. I can tell he is frustrated beyond control with the way he let Zadie slip off right his fingers.
I can feel my muscles bulging, my veins protruded, and my golden-brown eyes became even more golden. My dark veins began spreading right to my eyes as rage took control of me. My canines elongated and this time they were hungry for blood. I might be a monster, but Zadie is the only one who can tame it. Her scent alone made me feel intoxicated and controlled. Her absence has rendered me insane, and I resemble a mad man in a mental asylum.
I no longer feel her beating heart which could only mean one thing. She no longer exists, and it is all my fault. If only I have not touched her, if only I have resisted, she would be here. Alive.
She is part of death's collection.
