Blank, everything was blank. White, just plain white. Not a single thing from the past two years was in my memories, I had no idea how I got to the hospital; that I went to France, that I came back and most important that I lost my mother. I just couldn't remember anything as if I had erased all of my memories from the past years. I just couldn't. "So how are you dealing with all of this so far?" Nina asked me once we were alone. "Like shit, I don't remember anything as hard as I try I can't and it's frustrating. It's like trying to watch TV when there is Static at the end it makes my head hurt." I said with a sight. "The doctor said to give it some time you can just expect for it to come back in one hit, do you?" She said. I shrugged. "I just feel that with this memory loss I'm hurting people." I said. "You are not hurting anyone Alex; everyone is happy that are okay, that you are alive." Nina said. But even I knew that it was huge lie, but I guess I was getting the chance I deserved to make things right. Copyright of all the songs used to: Avril Lavigne & RCA Records and EMI Music Records

"When will you accept me?'' Lucian murmured against my skin. The wonderful feeling only grew as he stepped closer, the thick muscles between our layers of clothing pressing against my back. He dipped his head. I could feel his lips against my ear when he spoke. "When, Victoria? I am tired of fighting with you. I know you want me just as much as I want you. Admit it." I couldn't. "Admit it, Victoria!'' Lucian's voice went deep when he raised it. Goosebumps prickled my entire body as he whirled me around so that we were face-to-face. I exhaled softly, hating the dominant position he had over me. Lucian wretched my chin up. His eyes were burning with a lustful smolder. "No." Oh, I would definitely get myself killed tonight. I knew my defiance was angering him further but saying I wanted Lucian would mean I was accepting defeat. And I didn't do that. Love was a game and I was determined to win it.
