Chapter 226: Nightmares
Stella looked around her surrounding, struggling to maintain her rationality as she processed the familiarity of her environment.
"No, this is not happening." But her nightmare was confirmed. She was back at Nolan’s apartment.
"Babe," The voice that haunted her nights and her days spoke behind her. She froze, unwilling to turn to see if it was all real. Oh but it is, after all, here she is.
Slowly, she turned towards the direction where the sound had come from. To her utmost horror, her gaze locked with those of Nolan, the one person she hoped she’d never again encounter in her life.
"Nolan," She whispered, feeling the blood drain from her face and her knees go weak with instant defeat.
"Baby," He whispered with a sinister smile. It’s not real. She knew for certain that it was not real. But why did it feel so?
"You left me," His expression turned grim as he spoke. "You left me, Stella. After everything I’ve done for you, you went ahead and left me."
"You allowed me to go," She replied defensively. She wanted very much to be out of there. She darted her gaze, scanning the space for any signs of possible escape
"You won’t find what you’re looking for." How does he know?! "You’re trying to escape are you not?" He added, and then he snickered, a very possessed kind of sound that roused her need to be out of his presence. But strangely, when she looked at where the doorway usually was, behind him, there was no door.
