Emt:
"Co on, Emt, we can’t just keep lying here," my wolf hissed, trying to wake up to a world that had nothing left for .
"ret, let rest. I don’t want to hear another word from you," I warned him, folding my arm over my eyes and trying to shut everything out.
"Emt?"
A gentle voice from outside my door made move my arm as quickly as I could.
"Don’t trust the voice," my wolf muttered.
"Helanie?"
I ignored my wolf and focused on the voice. It was really her. How I suddenly recognized her from just her voice was beyond . I only focused on the fact that she was outside the door.
I got up and reached the door, answering it without delay or fear of her leaving if I didn’t respond imdiately.
And just like I thought, she was standing outside with a bright smile on her face and a food tray in her hands.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, watching her smile sweetly.
"I ca to see you," she replied, walking into the room. I stepped aside to let her pass. She sat down on the bed and placed the tray to the side, smiling so warmly that I couldn’t help but walk closer and sit beside her.
She suddenly turned around and held my face in her hands.
"Have you forgiven for the ss earlier--" I began, but before I could explain which of the screw-ups I ant, she leaned in for a kiss. I quickly went quiet to let our lips et. But before they could, I felt a sharp pain in my neck.
I opened my eyes in shock and saw her holding a dagger--she had stabbed .
"I told you, do not trust this Helanie," my wolf shouted.
"I will not rest until I finish you," her voice began to change into a weird monster-like creature.
I jolted awake, sitting up in bed. I noticed soone in the bathroom.
"There’s soone showering in my bathroom?" It didn’t make any sense. I had been in my room the whole ti. Usually, no one cos in like that, so soone using the bathroom was a big deal.
"Is anyone in there?" I called out, getting up from the bed and knocking on the door.
"Hey!" I knocked again, louder and clearer. The water stopped, and I took a step back from the door.
The door unlocked and slowly started to open, but only partway.
"Yes?"
Through the small gap, Helanie stepped into view. I could tell she was completely naked.
I quickly looked away and awkwardly cleared my throat. "I’m so sorry. I didn’t know you were using my bathroom."
"It’s alright. But I need your help. Why don’t you co inside and help shower?"
Her words made the hairs on my skin stand up. I looked up and saw her smiling at .
"Do not trust this Helanie," my wolf muttered.
"Emt, I know you are out there. Why won’t you co inside and help ? Do you not care about anymore?" it was Helanie’s voice and she needed my help.
"She is Helanie. This one is real. The other one was just a nightmare," I replied, quickly taking her hand as she reached it out through the crack.
The mont she held my hand, she let out a howl and started peeling off my skin. Panic rushed through , and I pushed her back, trying to get away--then I woke myself up.
"Ugh!" I hissed, tired of this back and forth. It had happened for the twentieth ti in one night.
At this point, I didn’t even know what was real and what wasn’t.
Then I heard a knock on the door again.
"Yes?" I called out, not really believing it.
"Do not trust this Helanie," my wolf muttered, warning to be careful.
I started walking toward the door, and when I opened it--just like before--it was Helanie holding a tray of food. But this ti, I knew it wasn’t Helanie. I wasn’t going to let her trick again.
So, I pushed the tray aside and pulled her inside, pinning her against the wall.
But then she said my na--and I realized it wasn’t a nightmare this ti.
Her mother rushed in, pushing off her daughter and dragging Helanie away.
For a second, I couldn’t understand what had just happened--or what the hell I’d done.
"You told not to trust her!" I yelled at my wolf, quickly grabbing my shoes to run after them and explain that I didn’t do anything on purpose. Or at least tell them why I ssed up.
"Helanie!"
I left my room, running after them down the hall, but they were already at the main mansion.
Once I got to the living room, I saw everyone standing there, staring at .
"What is going on?" my father stepped forward, questioning .
There was Emma, her daughter, Helanie’s mother, and my father. Helanie had probably already gone to her room.
"Nothing. It was just one big misunderstanding--" I tried to walk past my father, but he put his hand on my chest to stop .
"You are disgusting for doing that," he hissed.
"He must have been drinking to act like that. He’s always drunk--so drunk guy wandering around a house full of won," Emma said, her nose wrinkling, until her daughter shot her a glare to make her stop.
"I didn’t do anything--and no, I wasn’t drinking. I just--"
I rubbed my temples, unable to explain what was happening to .
My wolf had lost it. I had lost it.
I was supposed to lose my mories, but hallucinations? That had never been a part of it. If it had, I would’ve ended myself a long ti ago.
"I was there, and I saw it," Emma said. "He had pinned Helanie to the bed and was trying to--rape her. After everything she’s been through, he tried to do that too."
Her words made my heart drop. Sothing so awful shook my whole existence.
