Chapter 102
“Stay put at home, Colin, don’t go wandering off, you hear? | whispered to him cautiously.
Henry and his company would stop at nothing to get what they wanted; the Langley family had been turned
upside down. With Caleb out of the picture andand the baby gone too, Henry would easily seize control of
everything the Langley nheld dear.
We were walking down the sidewalk, a never-ending stream of cars passing us by on the road.
His back was toas he trudged forward.
| was getting tired and eventually, | dozed off against his back.
In my dream, a flurry of images flashed through my mind.
A little boy with mixed heritage, looking like a
a little girl in a red frock, running for dear life ince straight out of a fairy tale. He was carrying
“Phoebe, it's gonna be alright; we're almost home,” he reassuredas he ran. “Phoebe, wake up, don't fall
asleep. Phoebe, wake up, have a bit to eat...”

| rubbed my temples, looking at Colin. “I don’t want to eat.”
“Just have a little,” he insisted, holding out a plate to me.
“| said | don’t want to eat! I'm not hungry!” Isnapped, pushing away his hand, and the plate spilled all over the
floor.
He sat there silently, not saying a word.
Irritated, | got up and walked back to my room, my head throbbing.
In that moment, | felt like a ‘doll kept by a madman, and that feeling terrified me.
| was so exhausted that | collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep once more.
The early symptoms of pregnancy were becoming more apparent the drowsiness, the mood swings...
As | drifted off, | slipped back into a dream.
“He loves you, right? I'll make you look just the way he loves, and give you back to him.”
“You're like his favorite doll; I'll make you so beautiful.”
“He loves you so much; why did you deceive him? Why did you lie to him? You deserve to die.”
“Don’t you know you almost killed him with your lies? You forgot about him and got with
another man. You're filthy. Your heart is filthy, and so is your body.”
The blurred scenes in my dream slowly becclearer, and the moments before my death began to sharpen.
A murderer stood by the bed, surgical knife in hand, slowly slicing my skin, pulling off my nails, allowing
diamonds to fuse with my flesh and blood.
He looked atmanically, his laughter twisted. “This way you’re prettier, this way you'll be his doll forever.”
He placedin a glass cabinet, his voice like a demon from hell.
“This is your favorite red dress, his favorite too. I've made you just the way he likes; he'll surely be pleased.”
“No, help me, please help!” My breathing quickened, my heart raced, and | struggled.
But it was as if | were trapped in the dream, unable to wake up.
“Save me. Colin, save me!”
For sreason, | was calling for Colin to save me.
“Phoebe?”
“Phoebe!” Colin's voice was calling my name.
But | couldn't wake up; | was trapped in a nightmare.

“Colin... Colin, save me.”
“Phoebe, I'm here.”
In my panic, | felt someone’s arms wrap tightly around me, and my struggling body slowly relaxed.
When | woke up the next day, it was already the afternoon. | opened my eyes wearily; the room was empty
except for me.
“Hello?” My phone rang, and | fumbled to answer it. “A class reunion?”
“I'm not going...” | declined without thinking.
“But the teacher was really good to you; she just had surgery, and she said she wanted to see us. She's in the
late stages of cancer, and a lot of our seniors from different graduating years. will be there,” the voice of my
classmate was hoarse on the other end.
| frowned, contemplating. | should go, to pay my respects and maybe find sclues related to those victims.
“I got it; I'll be at the hotel on time.” | promised.
