I turned away and walked faster. He yelled after me. He sounded disturbed and angered. I could'nt take it anymore. I stopped dead in my tracks when I realized I was being stupid. Where was I supposed to go? Im lost now. I recomposed myself still feeling neglected. I walked under the flickering lamp. I still feel his breath lingering around. I swallowed my saliva and sucked it up. I can't quit now. I've always been controlled. I want to be free.
"Free?"
I shut my eyes tightly. I did not dare myself to open my eyes.
"Never."
A gust of wind blew my hair back. Sending chills down my back. I opened my eyes to find that I am back at home. I grabbed the bottle of beer next to me. I chugged it all down until I felt woozy. I got up and felt him grab my waist.
"Alice, my dear, Mind making me some dinner?"
I didn't respond. I quickly made him something quick and left him alone.
"Where are you going ,Alice?"
He smirked knowing I can't go anywhere without his permission.
"Just getting some water." I muttered easily.
He nodded his head.
It's always the same everyday. I can never leave his side.
He hired a demon for a reason. I'm not like the others, I am not a monster.
I sat down and took out a book. He kept glancing at me and making faces.
"You should really look more presentable."
I rolled my eyes.
"For what? For who?" I looked down at my old faded jeans and a simple t-shirt. Who am I trying to impress? I haven't socialized with anyone other than this psycho.
"You want to be free?"
I looked up at him, excitement oozing out of me. Just one book can free me.
"Yes."
He laughed manically.
"Silly girl, I'm giving you a chance to make friends. To go out more. To learn and study people."
I just kept nodding my head.
"I'm leaving now then."
He pushed me back on the chair.
"Like that? You look disgusting. Clean up."
I left to my room. I quickly 'fixed' myself. Im pretty much used to this already.
He could just sell another soul and have another one but why me?
I just want to be free.
