Our Love is Evergreen (Sequel to Angels in Hell) Chapter One Where could she be?!

Maple’s POV

“Has she awakened yet?” I heard an unfamiliar female voice ask.

“No, she’s been sleeping ever since I injected her with the sleeping poison,” Leo’s voice rang into my ears like a hot metal on ice. I cringed away, hoping they wouldn’t notice. They didn’t, they continued on their conversation.

“What is the nightmare that she’s in?”

“I pushed her off a cliff into the ocean and she is being chased by a shark.” He sounded proud, but what he was saying sounded stupid. Obviously the other female thought so too.

“A shark? Come on, you can more creative than that!”

“I had to test and see if she can actually breathe underwater in reality, and if you put the chemicals inside your body, you can. It’s amazing how strong she is.”

“You need to do something that will actually make her fear you more…like you turning into an actual werewolf and slashing her!”

“You know what, Laretta? That sounds like a wonderful idea.”

“Of course it sounds wonderful, I came up with it!” Laretta said in triumph and both started to cackle. I decided that this was my cue to wake up. I opened my eyes.

A beautiful brunette stood before me. She had flashing purple eyes and her brown hair was so dark that I almost mistook it for black. Her chin suddenly pointed and her face became a dark gray and she hissed at me. I cringed further away from her and she smirked at me. I knew I wasn’t even close to safe anymore. She had to be what Jessie called a lynch.

“Oh look, Leo dear. She’s awake.” Leo looked at me and smiled an evil smile.

“Why yes, Laretta, so she is. Not for long,” Leo said, quickly pulling up a huge needle. I cowered away from him, going as far as the cage would allow. Leo stuck his arm into the cage, but I was farther than his arm could reach. Leo growled, trying to reach me but he couldn’t.

I stared at Laretta who rolled her eyes and pushed Leo away. She opened the cage roof and pulled on my hair so tightly that I squirmed in pain. Her horrible face glowed for the fact that she was causing me pain. She grabbed the needle and stuck it in my arm, making me scream louder than before. Teren…I thought, before I was forced into my deepest nightmare.

**In my Nightmare**

I took in my surroundings. I was in a dark room that had only one lit candle, and it was slowly dying. I couldn’t see anything in the room and I was immediately frightened.

Suddenly, another candle was lit, then another, and another, until finally, all the candles were lit in the room. I looked around and behind me. I gasped and tears started to fall down my eyes. It was Teren! He was dressed up in a black tux and I looked at my clothes and shook my head. I had a dark blue dress that almost reached my feet.

Music started to fill the air and I was immediately relaxed. Teren walked closer to me and smiled.

“Would you like to dance?” he asked me and I smiled, nodding. He smiled back at me and offered me a hand. I put my hand in it and he wrapped his arm around my waist, I grabbed the tip of my dress. Teren took a step and I followed him. We continued like this for a while, dancing in each other’s arms. I laid my head on his chest and I immediately felt him stiffen. I looked up at him to see him smiling. I smiled back at him, laying my head back. Suddenly, I felt a cold sharp metal on the back of my throat.

I looked up at Teren to see him smiling evilly at me. I tried to pull away but Teren held my head close to his chest and he chuckled evilly.

“Na uh uh,” he said casually like he was trying to stop a little kid from eating dirt. I gulped and kneed him where the sun don’t shine. He groaned and doubled over onto the ground. I pulled away from him and tried to run but then he grabbed my foot, making sure I couldn’t go anywhere. I didn’t know he grabbed me and I immediately fell over. I hit my head on something and I felt nauseated, but I tried to get up. I felt sharp pain coming from my leg and I looked down to see that Teren was grazing his knife over my leg!

“HELP!” I cried out, knowing inside that no one was going to help. Teren, noticing my fear, laughed.

“You stupid girl, no one is coming to your rescue.” Tears came down my face onto my neck and anger bubbled from my stomach. I kicked Teren in the face and I felt a satisfying crunch when my high heel came in contact with his nose. He yelled in pain and I crawled away. I stood up and looked as the blood stained my dress. I ignored it once I saw that Teren was sitting up and blood was rushing down his throat. He growled in fury and rushed at me, knife in hand. My eyes widened and I looked around for a weapon. A candlestick was beside me and I paused for a while. When I noticed that Teren wasn’t stopping his advance, I grabbed the stick. The candle went out immediately and I held it ready.

I hit Teren in the head with it and he looked dazed at first then fell to my feet, unconscious. More tears fell down my face when I saw his angelic sleeping face, his nose not stopping. I ripped a huge piece of my dress and I covered his nose, hoping the bleeding would stop. I was terrified for his life, but I sat and waited for this horrible nightmare to end.
