Annabelle's leg shook as she walked back, her mind replayed Curtler words "if you agree to do one thing for me", nothing good ever comes out after that question.
She slowed down her pace but was suddenly pushed from behind into a different lit room by Curtler Liam's father, oh, he covered his mouth🤭 hiding his smile, am sorry my hands slipped but I can treat you better when you decide to wake up from your slumber faster he said angrily before matching away majestically.
She on the other hand has just returned from a harrowing journey to a world that feels eerily familiar yet completely different- a world that took her to a past, where memories she never knew she had, was long buried resurfaced with vengeance. And now here she was, back in the real world with more questions than answers.
As she stood in the room her eyes darted around nervously, unsure of what was to come or the decisions to take. She could feel the weight of a certain pair of eyes on her, his evil aura sending shivers all over her body. Without looking back, she could tell who this person was, she had trusted him once, loved him even, but now she couldn't help but feel a sense of betrayal lingering in the air., she remembered how he had led her into the strange world, promising her answers to her past.
But now she realized she has been deceived and he never intended to help her find her real parents instead, he had used her for his own gain and leading her astray.
She tried to make sense of everything that has happened in the last few hours, where are my real parents? The people you introduced, she paused so she wouldn't cry and appear weak, then she continued talking. The people from before, are they even my real parents at all?
I ask, Annabelle's voice trembled as she spoke, she turned around to face him, her eyes pleading with Liam.
But instead of answering her politely, he simply smiled slyly and asked, can you do one thing for me first?
Confusion clouded her mind as she tried to decipher his words. WHaT could he possibly want from her?
Is it going to be the same request with Curtler? They could be on the same boat together, afterall he is not the same Liam she used to know, the one who wanted nothing but to protect her at all times from danger, now wants to harm her.
And why did Liam, the one she thought she could trust forever allow this to happen? In that moment Elijah the one she has always be skeptical of, stepped forward, his eyes filled with concern.
Annabelle you must not listen to him, he is not to be trusted he said, his voice filled with urgency, I scorf looking up to the ceiling and laughing hysterically at how the roles switched from Liam to Elijah warning me of the dangers Liam possess.
As the tension in the room escalated, Annabelle found a strange wave of comforting emotions crashing over her. Fear, betrayal, confusion, all fighting for dominance but one stood out, a glimmer of hope and assurance.
She looked at the two men, trying to figure out which one of them secretly gave her hope while the negative side of her emotions was fighting for dominance in her heart.
Elijah seem to be the only person that cared at the moment, he winked at her and said have got your back. Maybe that could also mean he is sending positive vibes to her right?
In the midst of the chaos Annabelle closed her eyes and took a deep breathe, and in that moment she made a decision, a decision that may lead her down the path filled with more bruises and perhaps a glimmer of redemption.
Then she looked at Liam and said I will do whatever it takes to find my real parents and when am done with that I promise am going to kill you and send you back to the underworld with your father and lover, where you belong.
And with that she took Elijah's hand, ready to embark on a new journey - one that would test her limits, push her to the breaking points, and ultimately lead her to the truth she had been seeking all along.
But Liam stopped her with a firm grip on her wrist, he pulled her back to him and brought her close to his chest, he wrapped his hands around the back of her neck and made her stand on his shoes so she could be slightly taller, then he forcefully smacked his lips on her and pulled back only after she bit his lips, drawing blood.
Tears clouded her eyes, he wiped his lips dry and pulled her close so his lips was close to her ears, do not test my patience baby girl he spat with venom laced in his voice and with that he pushed her roughly to Elijah who caught her firmly in his hands, you know what to do Liam said to Elijah before walking out.
After he said that, Annabelle waited patiently for Liam to disappear before asking Elijah what he meant but, she never got the opportunity to speak. Shhhhh!!! It's going to be alright, he said with his middle finger on her lips, he looked down for too long, like he wanted to engulf her lips with his, I promise am different he said still looking at her lips, then he smacked his face gently in defeat, come with me, I need to show you something, he said but Annabelle seem to be lost in her thoughts.
