prologue

♢ alaïa

i was running for my life, for my future, for me. for each step i took, my breathing became more shallow. i've been running around the part of my town that i'm not familiar with trying to lose him for about half an hour or so. never have i ever imagined myself in this kind of situation. everything I've achieved, everything i've worked for these past years of my life will go to complete waste. i was depending my life on how much and fast the stride i took, if i ever slow down the hope that lies deep down in the pit of my heart will completely be gone. i have to be quick and intelligent and not spend too much time on thinking irrelevant things that couldn't be bothered right now. i cleared my mind not risking to get caught by the devil.

i halted abruptly seeing the well-known neighbourhood, my lips turned upward knowing that just a little bit further i would be safe. As i began speeding towards my home, i was pulled back by the waist and a clothing was put above my mouth. guess the little celebration of finding my way back didn't last that long, huh? i struggled to free myself from the tight grip but it wasn't enough to keep my eyes open. and right there and then I knew that it'll be the last time i would breathe this air of freedom.

i felt i was being carried and placed on something really uncomfortable. i began to stirred out of my unconsciousness and i opened my eyes but it was dark, really dark. i couldn't see anything except the light illuminating from under the--which i guess--door. my hands and foot were tied tightly and it was starting to hurt me. not one bit of the recollection in the pass hours came back to me, I didn't know how did I got here and why. the sound of rustling comes from my right break me from the train of thoughts. i turned my head and saw a shadow of a tall man, to say i'm scared was an understatement. i'm scared like the crawl into a hole and die kind of scared. he was getting closer, two more long strides he would be right in front of me. 

thump, thump, thump.

my loud fast heartbeat was the only thing ringing in my ear. i didn't even realise the man was crouching to my eye-level. his face--which i couldn't see the features but only the structure--started to get close to mine. my breathing speeds up and as i thought he was going straight, he moved it to the side. to my ear, what he said makes me cringe a little and did what really terrified me.

"let the game begin, should we?" he said wickedly as while caressing my face.

tell me what do you think about the prologue :-)
