Chapter 363: Return to Me
“I love you. We love you. Remember that we will always love you,” my mother told me as she reached up a hand to stroke my hair.
“You have to go now. There is not enough time. Run as fast as you can and don’t look back. Forget about us and forget about everything. Start a fresh new life, Mila...” my father said as he placed a hand on top of my head.
I had no idea what happened after that because suddenly I felt a whirling sensation deep inside of my mind and then everything went pitch black.
“Mila! Mila!”
I could hear someone calling my name but his voice felt so soft as if he was so far away from me. My lips wouldn’t move and I couldn’t make a sound. It felt like I had completely no control over my body and I couldn’t move a muscle. It just felt like I was in an unknown place while just floating in thin air.
“Mila! Mila! Can you hear me?”
I heard that voice again. A man was calling to me so desperately and with each call of my name, I could feel his voice getting louder as if he was coming closer to me.
An aggressive force suddenly pulled my body forward but my mind felt so blank and it seemed like I couldn’t think straight. Suddenly, my mind went blank and I could not see or hear anything. After what seemed like a short while later, I heard that same voice call my name one more time. It felt like I had somehow managed to thanks to that voice calling my name. The darkness receded and then completely disappeared, and I was greeted with a familiar scene of my bedroom. My feelings and my senses came flooding back to me, and I knew that I had returned to a reality. The dream was now over, to be more accurate, the nightmare was over.
I turned and saw Prince Leonard staring at me with an extremely worried expression on his face and I wondered just how long I had been out for. Since the Prince was with me in the dream, I figured that he must have experienced at least part of what I had experienced and seen.
