Happy that my beloved is in clean and dry clothing, I comb through her hair, braiding it loosely. I finally cover her with a quilt and tuck her in. I am satisfied that Wren is as comfortable as I can make her.
Turning might take a day, maybe two. I will wait and watch over her until she opens her eyes again.
Until she comes back to me.
My sweet little bird.
Spinning like a top, my body is going wobbly and sideways.Sounds of glass crunching mix with my screams.
I am cold.I am burning.
Arms are around me, pulling me.Tugging me.
I am nothing…
Suddenly, I am something again.
Hands are pressing into me.
Crushing me.
Air forces itself into me.
I am coughing.I am dying.
A man holds me and calls me by my name.
He kisses my neck and whispers to me.
Then something hot, thick, and heavy is in my mouth.
I don’t want it, and I want to get away.
But I am so tired, and my body hurts so much…
It starts to taste good. I give in.
Nothingness returns.
The last thing I hear… “Mine.”
***
I am floating.
I remember pain, I remember death, and I remember him.
Beyond that, there is a void. I cannot describe who I am or what I am doing out here. Nothing. I only knowhim. The one who saved me, who brought me back. Who brought me here…
Where is here?
Here is where we become.
A voice that is like mine but isn’t, stirs in the recesses of my mind. It rasps and scratches against my thoughts, frightening me.
Do not be afraid. We are one. Join me.
I don’t want anything to do with her. No thanks.
