Sneak Peek

I was dying. That much I knew.

It was just so easy to fall in love, something I had forbidden myself to do since a long time ago. Falling in love meant that I had a new strength, but at the same time, it would be my weakness.

In all the fear and panic that was building up in my guts, I was feeling the urge to laugh. I knew why, of course. I always knew. Yet I keep doing things that I knew endangered me.

That was the reason why I wanted to laugh. It was almost funny that all my effort to keep away from traps and snares eventually led me to walk into them.

As I felt my attacker’s hand touch my skin, I gasped in fear that I was going to die.
