Melting Snow (Book 1, Eli [Ellie] Snow Saga)

Prologue

Prologue

Sitting on a chair with my arms wrapped tightly around my legs, head resting on my knees I start thinking of the three dead bodies lying lifelessly on the floor as the smell of warm blood fills the air, leaving the taste of it in my throat.

I try to remember how I became like this, so I understand why I did it. But of all my memories, I can’t think of anything that would make me this way, not really, but that’s probably the answer, I’ve always been this way and everything I’ve been through recently has brought the demon out of the shadows. I’ve been living a lie for so long now, that maybe it’s time to embrace the truth and admit I am a monster.

As I slowly open my eyes to see the damage, I can already imagine what it looks like. I sit looking around but all I see is blood, I can taste it as well as flesh. I’m hungry again but I don’t want to move, I just want to sit and smell the warm comforting smell while looking at where their throats would have been if I had not ripped them out with my bare hands and teeth.

I should think about leaving soon but it’s so quiet here sitting in the dark. So I close my eyes again to savour the smell and decide I’m going to embrace all the darkness in me and stick to the shadows instead of walking in the light.
