Their Possession

One

In the middle of the night..

Elora is sleeping peacefully in her own bed in her own room. She pulled her bedsheet close to her body unconsciously due to the sudden increase of coldness in her room.

One hand trailed from her ankle to knees very slowly and the other hand caressed her face, from cheek to neck. Another hand came into view and removed the bedsheet which is covering her beautiful body.

Her red sleeveless night top is visible now. Her chest heaved up and down steadily, showing that she is still sleeping. A hand which is staying in her neck trailed down to her cleavage slowly, one finger circled around her nipple over her cloth then suddenly pinched it harshly.

Elora gasped and sat up on her bed. Sweats are forming over her forehead. She frowned thinking why is she sweating when the room is so cold. She turned her head towards the clock which shows the time is 2:25 am.

This is the second time it has happened this week. This nightmare is so weird. Why am I feeling like someone is touching me, she thought.

She stood up from the bed and froze in her place. She felt someone's presence in her room. She gulped slowly. Controlling her fear she walked towards the door hurriedly without turning around.

After walking out of her room, she ran towards her parents bedroom. She knocked on the door while calling them. "Mom, Dad, Mom.." Hearing their daughter's scared voice, they opened the door worried.

"Elora, sweetie what's wrong?" Her mother asked softly.

Her father also came behind her mother and asked her the same question.

"I'm so sorry to disturb your sleep, mom. I - I think someone is in my room, can you please come and check my room." She asked with hesitation.

"What? You both wait here. I will go and check it." Her father said before leaving them and walking towards her room. After a few minutes her father called them. Hearing him call them, they both walked into her room.

Elora's POV:)

I walked inside my room slowly, trailing behind my mother. Now the light is on. I rotate my head around the room searching if someone barged into my room. But no one is here now. I don't even feel that chillness I felt earlier.

"Ryan, is everything okay?" My mother, Siena asked my father.

"Yes. I think El is playing with us." He said with a smile.

"What? Elora. Is this true?" My mother turned towards me looking angry.

"What, no Mom. Trust me I really felt like someone was here." I said with wide eyes.

She chuckled shaking her head. "Okay I trust you. Now go to sleep, you have a big day ahead, right?" She walked outside.

My father came forward and shuffled my head "You became so playful nowadays, Elora." He said before walking out with my mother.

I stand still thinking what happened right now. I guess I'm paranoid because of that nightmare. Mom is right. I should sleep because I have a big day ahead. My graduation day. I'm so happy for this graduation because I got homeschooled till I completed high school. But for college, I asked them adamantly, because I want to attend college in person.

I closed the door and switched off the light before going to sleep.

Third person's POV:

Elora stood in front of her mirror admiring her dress. She is wearing white short dress with a silver lining across her chest and waist that matches her silver eyes. Elora always thought that she has a weird appearance due to her brown hair and silver eyes with pale white skin. She ran downstairs after wearing her graduation coat over her dress.
