I jolted awake, Launching forward. my wild eyes flickering around the room searching, searching for any sign of life, being, person.
I slowly let my tense muscles relax and the iron grip around the hilt of the dagger loosen.
no one was here.
After one last glimps around the room my eyes finally could close and i drifted off into a slight slumber, never peacfully, never completly asleep.
Ch 1.
Waiting patiently i quietly fiddled with the deep blue saphire ring on my finger. I never took it off, that was a vow i planned to keep.
Shaking my head i tried to block the memories. i tried to excape his face, our experience and that night.
Relax i whispered to myself. he isnt here. He couldnt hurt me anymore, not like he hurt him.
But i couldnt help letting my eyes expertly sweep through the busy crowd.
Fool. He is still on the island. He probably forgot about you already.
"Alice Stone?" The receptinat called out, her green eyes finally resting on me. Standing up i smoothed down my black skirt and followed the woman into the confrence room.
I smilled as i walked out of the skycraper, i had got the secretary job.
I felt slightly accomplished and realived, i was one step closer to my goal, to our goal.
Letting myself fall into the tipical newyorker lifestyle i tried to erase my past and embrace the future.
it was going so well.
I was starting over, just like i wanted and then HE showed up.
Apeared when i was just getting used to the confort life, a life without pain and death. A life without saddness and darkness.
My name is Alice Stone and for the last 5 years i was kept captive at a secret facitly for assiasian training till four months ago i got out.
My freedom, if you'd call it that, came with a price. but the reality is you can never really get out, sooner or later they'll come for you trying to suck you back in.
Sooner or later you'll realize the easy life wasnt ment for you. But i made a vow.
