Chapter 112: _ Beautiful Woman
My vision swam as I hit the sand, the dream beach dissolving around me. Gasping, I scrambled to my feet, searching frantically for the carefree Hamm Rhett who was just right in front of me. But in his place stood a woman. Not just any woman, though.
This woman seemed to hold the moon in her eyes, her silver hair shimmering like moonlight on water. Her white dress flowed around her like a celestial cloud, and an air of power emanated from her that made my breath hitch.
W- What the hell just happened?
I could have sworn Gamma Rhett was just here some minutes ago.
Shock plastered itself on my face. "What’s going on here? Where’s Gamma Rhett? Who are you?" I asked, swiveling my neck around in search of Gamma Rhett.
The woman smiled gently. Her smile was a sound like wind chimes dancing in the breeze. "Fear not, child," she said, her voice ringing a melodious chime that settled strangely well deep within me. "You are fortunate, I must say. Few can perceive me in my true form at such close proximity. It speaks to the special qualities that reside within you."
Special qualities?
My mind whirred in confusion. What was going on? Where was Gamma Rhett?
Who the hell was this freak and what the fuck was he talking about?
My voice finally found its way back to me. "What’s going on? Where did Gamma Rhett go?"
The woman offered a serene smile but her answer evaded my questions. "I knew I had made the right choice in you, Isleen. It saddens me, however, that you have become entangled in this conflict."
