Second Assault — Bond And Treason — novel Chapter 2

Am I alive?

Air goes in and out of my lungs, I'm breathing, so I must be... Right?

I can't feel my body, though. I can't see anything. I can't hear anything.

Am I standing?

Am I lying down?

What happened?

Someone died... I barely remember, although, my mind is enveloped in a complete fog.

Who was it? I want to wake up, I want to move, but no matter how hard I try, I can't.

Mom, Grandma... Does this mean I'll join you? Should I give up or should I fight?

Though I'm tired of fighting. I've done it all my life and I can't take it anymore... I don't want to.

But should I?

And if so... Why?

«Kitty».

That voice... I know I've heard it before. It's so familiar, I feel it so close even though I'm all alone.

Who is it? Why can't I see him?

«No one has ever had my heart before... Only you, kitty».

Who? Why can't I remember anything?

The sweetness in his voice makes me tremble. I feel my heart racing, and it's the second sign of life my body expresses.

I want to see him, I long to touch him and feel him against my skin.

The need to be by his side is almost palpable.
