Page 163 of His Cursed Heart

"That month with you was the best one of my life." Teddy moans and I sob harder, blood coming again out of my mouth. "As yes, and the blood you always covered us in, mhm,"

I hate it here.

I want to wake up from this nightmare.

Get them away from me.

Save me.

Someone save me.

I hate it here.

I want to wake up from this nightmare.

GET THEM AWAY FROM ME.

Save me.

Someone save me.

SOMEONE SAVE ME.

I WANT TO WAKE UP FROM THIS NIGHTMARE.

"Just hang in there, baby." I hear Everette's voice and I sigh in relief.

Please don't see me like this.

Please save me.

I love you, Everette. I love you so much that if I know I'll see you after this torment, I'll take the pain with pleasure.

I love you, Everest.

"She's breaking." I hear Enrique laugh.

Yes, I am.

A cough makes us look at Ivan who chokes on something. Water comes out from his mouth, blood also making its appearance.

"What the fuck is going on?" I hear Hanibal yell.

Teddy leaves me alone as he focuses on Ivan.

"He's waking me up." Ivan tries to say, but water keeps flooding out of him. "That bastard Moretti is waking me just to kill me."

My heart beats again at his name.

Everette is waking him. That means Ivan isn't dead, so neither am I.

Tears are falling down my cheeks when I realize that once again, my Everest is saving me from this torture.

Ivan falls on his knees, chocking harder and then a light blinds me.

I open my eyes, trying to accommodate to the sun outside.

Outside?
