Seraphina's POV
My head felt like it was filled with smoke, like I had been breathing in fire, and now I couldn't even remember what clean air felt like.
My eyes were shut, but even in that darkness, I wasn't at peace—because everything inside me was screaming and shaking me up from the inside out.
I didn't know what exactly happened after I left that man, the janitor, or guard, or whoever the hell he was. His strange words still echoed in my ears like a curse I couldn't wash away.
And right after that, everything blurred out, and the world around me slipped into nothing. As if I had fallen into a deep… deep sleep without care.
But it wasn't sleep. It was hell!
Because the moment I closed my eyes, the moment I fell into that black pit, my mind dragged me straight back to that hell.
Everything played right in front of me, and I was seeing my own life story playing like a movie in front of me.
