Chapter 121: Crazy
I slowly walked to the mirror, my feet dragging against the floor until I got to it. Seeing my features right now did not surprise me, I cried myself to sleep like a mad woman and I was surprised I didn’t bring the whole castle down with my screams.
My hair was wild and my eyes had dark circles down and my eyes red from all the crying. I sniffed using the back of my hand to wipe my nose, suddenly feeling lightheaded too. The skies were bright and I knew it was certainly not morning, maybe midday now.
The sudden doors barging open caused me to be on alert and I twirled and found William striding towards me with a look I cannot explain but it caused my heart to beat faster than I hoped it to.
He looked paled
He looked lost
"Why won’t you tell me what’s wrong?" he began with a tone that was both mixed with coldness and pain enough to send a chill down my spine. His eyes raked my entire body.
"I heard your screams" he added with clenched teeth, and the room temperature dropped. "I heard your cries" he took a step towards me and I took a step back.
"I felt your pain..." he was coming and I went back as I could but my lower back found the dresser and I gripped it for support because it felt like I would drop.
"I still feel your pain..." he closed the distance and placed his hand on the dresser leaning to me, I could hear his grip, on the verge of snapping it into two.
"And you expect me to leave you alone?" he asked like I was crazy like HE was crazy to even do that. "Do you think so low of me?"
"I asked to be left alone"
