_______________________________

The darkness swallowed me when my eyelids slowly raised. The warm and sticky air started to suffocate me already. My breathing had slowly morphed into ragged. Panic flooded my system. What scared me more was the realization that I couldn't react. I couldn't even lift a finger, let alone move my body. I didn't know why my body felt numb and heavy while my head was dizzy. My vision blurred on the edges making me so badly want to throw up.

A lone tear slipped from the corner of my eye before they were shut close again on their own accord. The slumber overpowered my will.

A little more sleep couldn't be so harmful, right?

That was where I had been wrong. When I next opened my eyes, I was lying on an unfamiliar bed and when I tried to move, I still couldn't. My brain started to focus on the surroundings rather than the emotions that were threatening to burst out of me. My habitual panic after waking up in new places alone, threatened to take over me.

By some miracle I hadn't already gone into a frenzy of palpitations and trepidation. Perhaps it was the drug that they had given me that kept me calmer than usual. Yet, it wasn't enough.

I still couldn't feel even my fingertips, it was so numb and that was the reason that I started to freak out. The drugs might have been wearing off because the new surroundings had started to give me palpitations. The only thing I wanted to do was get back home, I wanted to go home to my family so badly.

I was scared. In fact, I was terrified.

The movement on my right caught my attention, my vision still blurred from the drowsiness but the silhouette looked oddly familiar. My brain kept chanting like a mantra, 'be brave, do not under any circumstances let the other party know how badly he was affecting me' but my facade of bravado couldn't stop tears from escaping.

My tongue rolled around with difficulty, slurring my words, "W-Who... are... you?"

Only to hear the words that chilled my spine. Or rather it was the familiar voice and the creepy tone.

"Oh my darling, I have waited for such a long time to have you. But now, now you are exactly where I want you to be."
