- I'm fine! I'm just a little dizzy. - I answered, trying to reassure him, even though I couldn't see anything around me. - How are you? You're bleeding! - Ethan spoke close to my face, his figure was a little blurry, but I could see that he was down. - Hello? It's probably nothing, just help me up, please. - I asked him, feeling his fingers touching my face, leading me to lift it. - All right, don't move. - His voice was low and close to my ear, and I couldn't deny that I shivered, I nodded and felt his arms encircling my body. - I agreed with my head and felt his arms around my body. What? What are you doing? - I was startled by the man so close and me seeing almost nothing. - Stay calm, I'm just going to get you out of here first. - And as Ethan spoke, I felt my body being lifted off the ground, grabbing his neck in fear of falling. - Please don't let me go! - I begged, cringing and holding him tightly. - It's all right! I won't let go, but you're smothering me! - And when he

- Please don't notice the mess. - He said, opening the door to give me a wider view of his room, which was impeccably organized. - Don't worry, I don't do that sort of thing. - I smiled, trying to look gentle, Ethan had me sit down on his L-shaped couch and disappeared into a room. Apart from the closed windows with the curtain and the gloomy air in place the house had a nice smell besides being very clean too, nothing was thrown in any corner, the furniture like the gray sofa were spotless as if they were new, beyond the room, there was the dining table that on top of it there was a pot of some plant did not seem to be flowers only had green leaves, the table was a dark wood, but I could not tell which was the right tone was not good with these things home. - Here, sorry for the delay, was in the bathroom in my room. - I said, leaving the hallway and coming towards me holding a red suitcase in my hands. - It's okay, it doesn't even hurt. - I answered while I watched him deposit th

I was standing in front of my bedroom window on the second floor, from up there I could have a wide view of my new neighbor's house, I must confess that I found Ayanne Reese interesting, and I could clearly see in her eyes that she had a lot to hide, I wasn't sure what it could be, but there was a small suspicion. It was the first time that someone called me to dinner even if it was indirectly, my appearance always kept people away as much as possible, and I myself had already got used to this loneliness, not that the presence of Flora and Megan wasn't enough, but I knew that life was much more than my house and two people who one day might leave. I was surprised at myself when I spent that morning with Ayanne in her house and how my appearance did not affect her at all, it seemed so natural, it was so inviting to be near her, was it normal to be upset when I saw her with that snobby guy? Draven Leblanc, that man was full of masks, and here as it was a small town it was easy to know

When I arrived at my uncle's house he almost didn't recognize me, since I had grown up and with those cuts I had become another person, but because he had such a good heart he didn't care about any of those things, and when he died he left his house to me instead of giving it to someone else who was more important to him. I had become a monster, but some people didn't see me that way and I could at least be nice to them, since I didn't have much that I could give in return. The next thing I knew I was in front of the forest behind the city, it wasn't very long or very visited since it was close to the abandoned school, it was an isolated place and became worse when there were some cases of murder of women in that region and especially inside the school, they never found the killer and never had any victim to tell the story, there was only one thing that linked the women, all were new in town. There have been people and some policemen who suspected me and still do, but since it was n

I went into the kitchen, looked in the cupboards for a pot I could use and got a deep plate from my uncle's time, put the dog on the counter and turned on the water filling the plate, when it was finished I put it beside him. - Here, boy, I'll get you something to eat. - I said, watching the animal just approaching the plate and sniffing it before starting to drink. While he was distracted drinking water I looked in the fridge what I could give him, I found two bananas and grabbed the bottle of milk, even if he took water maybe he wants some milk too, while I put the things on the counter I heard three knocks on the door. - You can come in! - I let out, imagining it was Ayanne, and hit it when the woman opened the door holding a bag. - Hi, how is he? - She said, approaching and looking curiously at the animal. - He's fine, he just had some water, I got two bananas, but I know it won't be enough, what can we give him? - I asked, approaching the woman who was stroking the dog, which

It was so funny to be able to smile even though I was just a spectator, usually when I was just watching I didn't find anything funny, there was nothing that made me truly smile, everything was too boring and unfunny. - So I found the kit, now I will need your help. - I said interrupting her conversation, as if totally oblivious to what was going on, the woman got up without a clue and agreed with her head. - Okay, what do I have to do? - she asked, stepping closer and looking curious as I took the antiseptic and bandages out. - You hold him while I give him the medicine, he can't move for anything, can you do it? - I asked seeing her nod her head in total motivation to help me, I believe it wouldn't be difficult to take care of such a small wound, but I wanted her to be a part of it, and she seemed happy to help. Ayanne held the puppy while stroking it with her thumb seemed to want to make it comfortable as she was holding it on its side keeping its leg straight. - Stay calm, ok,

Monday had arrived, and my alarm clock made sure to wake me up right on time to go to the studio, I was a little tired even though I had done almost nothing the day before, still lying in bed listening to the annoying sound of the alarm I turned it off in a slap I looked at the window and the weather was not pretty at all, it looked like it was going to rain, the morning temperature was cold, and I regretted taking off the blanket feeling all my hair shivering. - My God, how cold is this! - I got up protesting and went to the bathroom, took off my nightgown and went to the shower, turning on the warm temperature since I didn't want to freeze. - I guess winter is here. - I mumbled, starting my shower. When I finished there was a light smoke in the bathroom, I rolled myself out and walked to the sink, cleaning the fogged up glass and seeing my face rosy from the warm water, I grabbed the paste and my pink toothbrush, with the towel on my head and another on my body with my teeth brush

- How much time do we have? - I asked apprehensively. - Two weeks, use this time to research and mainly put the ideas into practice to finally execute perfectly, I want a sketch for the next class, the canvases can't be medium size, our client wants something big and well done, the studio will be open until eleven o'clock at night, I may or may not be here, but the door will be locked at this time always if you finish earlier the keys will be on my desk bring them back the day before, you can start. - I said, leaving us alone in the room. - And then! I know it's every man for himself, but we can help each other. - I heard Kiana's voice just after Draven left us, I turned to her, to see her looking at us. - I agree, in the end who will stay or not, it makes no difference since the biggest gain is having learned from Lord Leblanc himself is already a gateway. - Brendon shrugged his shoulders, I thought for a moment, and they were right, having entered the studio already gave us a gate
