Chapter 78: Silent End
In the library, I came across books that told me about monsters and demons of the mind... it didn’t drive far into the supernatural but it told me there can be demons of the mind, under the bed, and even when we don’t want them to be. It got me scared so I turned the book away.
William noticed my action and told me I shouldn’t be afraid of demons only existing in the mind... but that doesn’t mean I should believe they exist there only. His words were complicated and I was confused so I didn’t ask questions.
He might have not been direct with me but I knew why he meant Demons didn’t exist only in the mind and places... that wasn’t the true meaning of his words, what he truly meant was... there were demons everywhere.
I look at them... one I have counted to be demons... because nothing more can get the blood chilly by the looks of thousand red eyes. I thought demons would plague me in my dreams... but yet again I was naive.
From the moment I set foot outside the walls of the library, I met my demons. I was too blinded by the beauty and pureness of this place to ignore the dark storm that enveloped it. It is not intentional but it is fact.
Even the purest of places and solitude was where the demons kept their presence well known.
I could feel only regret now... pure regret, I shouldn’t have left William’s side.
I do not know what hell entails, but I knew this felt like it, I read it burns and this did too, I heard it drains the souls... this did. It was everything hell has to offer and the agony overwhelmed my entire body as they ripped me apart.
My clothes shredded bit by bit, exposing my skin to the chilly air but the cold was lost to me, what I felt was pain... pristine pain as the Pixies took fast bites on my flesh as they encircled me like bees, biting deeply into my skin enough to draw blood.
