“Save me, Chloe…”

Blake lay in blood and bound by cold iron chains all around him. He reached out to me, begging me to pull him out of the abyss.

I wanted to save him...

I didn’t want him to die!

But there were countless hands pulled my clothes, and my hair…They wouldn’t leave me alone and kept pulling me backward.

“Blake!” I screamed, unable to get close to him.

Tears streamed down my face, and anxiety filled my heart.

Suddenly, the iron chains around Blake tugged him down into the bottomless abyss.

“Blake!” I yelled and opened my eyes.

I breathed heavily, sweat soaking through the sheets. My heart beat faster and my body get tense. I snapped back to my senses and realized that it was a nightmare.

Five days have passed since Blake was banished and I was forced to give Vanessa my blood.

I had spent most of my time lying in bed. I refused to eat anything nor speak with anyone. My father tried summoning me to see him, but I ignored everything he said.

I no longer wanted to please anyone, nor did I care about the punishments.

It would be great if they punished me. Only then would I be able to die and escape from misery.

To me, every living moment was riddled with pain.

The air here was stifling.

I disliked this world, repugnant periphery all people, including my father.

I would probably be doing something completely different now if not for him.

All of a sudden there was a terrific bang. Someone had kicked the door open.

“This is so fucking annoying!” A sharp female voice rang in my ear. “Why do I have to bring you meals every day?”

It was the maid my father had sent to look after me. She slammed the food tray onto the table, and the hot soup splashed on my face.

However, I did not feel any pain. I had slumped into a state of torpor from which nothing could rouse me.

“Sending you food is just wasteful.” The maid muttered angrily as she proceeded to take the previously untouched meal out.

She glared at me with disdain. “If you really want to die, just jump out the window. That’ll spare me from running this tedious errand.”

With that, she left in a huff.
