Avery's Point Of View “You know, we can all hear your thoughts right?” She said quietly, looking straight into my eyes. I paused for a minute, everything stopping around me. My heart was beating faster by the minute, and my smug smile dropped immediately. What did she mean by that? How could she hear my thoughts? What type of magic was in this place? “I don't believe you,” I said firmly, trying to keep my calm. The man who wanted to marry me seemed like he was in a hurry, if they could really hear my thoughts, he wouldn't have let me pretend to begin with. “No matter what you do, you can never escape this place so I suggest you make things easier for yourself,” she said again, taking a deep breath as she put the shoes on my legs. “W…what do you mean?” I asked confusedly, it came as a whisper. A lot of things didn't make sense to me. She had quietly done my bidding up until this point. If she had known what I was thinking, why didn't she act up and let me continue, feeling

Avery's Point Of View “Amos!!” I screamed again, tears rolling down my face. “We need to leave here quickly,” a familiar voice said urgently, turning the truck around. “Jake?” I asked calmly, finally figuring out whose voice it was. “Yes, it's me, Avery,” he responded swiftly, speeding away from the disaster in front of us. “What…what is going on?” I asked confusedly, my mind filled with too many questions. “I am going to need you to calm down, we will find a solution but you must be calm,” he said firmly, his voice breaking at the end. Betraying his very own words. “How can I be calm? Look at Amos, he is dying,” I said tearily, shaking Amos violently. There was a long stretch of silence but after a while, he spoke “He prepared for this,” Jake said calmly, a hint of pain lingering in his voice. “What do you mean?” I blinked confusedly, grabbing Amos's hand tightly. The more he spoke, the more confused I became and it made me very anxious. “Just wait a while,” Jake final

Avery's Point Of View Her hands were still stretched out to me, waiting for me to take them. I looked around and back at the woman. “Take her hand,” Maya whispered calmly, nudging me gently. I knew what I wanted to do but for some reason I was hesitant. I had looked for the truth about my life and my situation but now it was staring me in the face. “Don't be afraid,” the strange woman whispered quietly, her hand still stretched out to me, as if she read my mind.And suddenly, I didn't know what I wanted anymore. I knew that if I took her hand my entire life would change but there was a pit in my stomach. A strange feeling of discomfort and fear. “Whatever you want to tell me, you can say it here and now, to the hearing of everyone,” I said firmly, raising my voice loud enough for everyone to hear. Gasps and whispers erupted from around us, formerly it was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. This was my last resort, I didn't want to fall for the same trap again. “No,

Avery's Point of View “There is no use fighting this, it's her destiny!” The seer’s words echoed in my mind again. Goosebumps covered my entire body, and I began to shake in genuine fear. I wanted to leave that place, run as fast and as far away from this mess as I could, but my legs didn't move. Instead, I began to analyze everything, my entire life. But most especially the time I spent in this city. I met a sweet and kind girl who helped me get a job and let me stay in her mansion. “Was it all planned? Why was it this way?” I asked myself calmly as I tried to make sense of everything. Now that I thought about it better, I realized that it was too easy. For someone who had struggled through life but was still dealt the worst hands. I had been stupid enough to think that something so good could happen easily. “Even the way the Smiths accepted me was suspicious,” I muttered quietly, forgetting the real danger in front of me. “Why don't you let her choose for her

Avery's Point Of View Morning came faster than usual. I didn't know if it was because I didn't get a wink of sleep or something else.They had all left the cave to me, giving me enough space to rest, but sleep was far from me.“Avery! It's Ashley, can I come in?” Her voice came from the opening of the cave.“Sure,” I managed to respond, still sitting at the same spot she had left me the day before.“You didn't sleep as well, I see,” she said calmly, seeming unsurprised to find me exactly as she had left me.“Why didn't you sleep, though?” I asked her curiously, my eyes piercing hers.“I am scared,” she admitted quietly, lowering her eyes.“We used to be a happy family, I used to have my father and brother, but I decided to play a little game, and it's costing us everything,” she whispered softly, tears welling up in her eyes.“I don't understand,” I said honestly, running my hand through my hair.“I knew…I knew from the moment you stepped into my house, I knew exactly who you were…”
