Lie To Me, My Love

Loud sounds of continuous gunshots echoed as well as curses, they came from all over the place. However as I tried to listen clearly, I found that I can’t. I’m there and yet I’m also not.I raise my aching head, and narrowed my eyes, only to not have an effect on the surroundings as it’s still not clear in my eyes. What is happening?In my hazy vision as if sands obscured my sights, another gunshot resounded and is followed by a loud thud of the body falling in front of me, even some of the blood splattered on my face. Strangely enough, I’m not terrified and my heart beats as calmly as always.My gaze landed on the body, sprawled in my front, blood painting the whole image. Then I raised my head and looked around, unbeknownst to me, blood and dead bodies are scattered around me. The horrible scene can even make one faint and yet for me, they all seem… normal. Why is it? How can I not feel frightened by all of it?In my reverie, a dangerous shout woke me up. My gaze immediately look in

"No! We don't!" I exclaimed, almost instinctively and faster than my brain. He looks at me with serious eyes, not even flinching, as if he anticipates my reaction.My pupils shook, and I shook my head while clasping my trembling hands. No, Addalyn, stay calm. You must calm down, or else everything will come to an end. I swallowed with difficulty, and my breathing became more labored as the corners of my lips twitched in an attempt to keep myself under control.Despite this, the corners of my eyes are heating up and soon moisture glistens on them, so I take a deep breath and reach out for his arm, grabbing it.He cast a brief glance at them before returning his gaze to me. I'm sure he can tell my hands are trembling, but I'm not going to give in."Can... can you please wait until I remember my memory?" I beg, my tone almost frantic, and if anything, I'm nearing my breaking point."Memory? Wait for you? When will you remember?" he sarcastically asks. He is so blunt and unconcerned about

I also look in the direction he is looking, and for some reason, the pressure in the air rises."What do you mean? Have we met before?" I ask, watching the scene in the distance; I have no idea what's going on, but the way they're standing up, it appears a fight is about to break out.I knitted my brows and chewed on my lower lip. Why am I still talking calmly to a stranger when there is clearly something wrong at this party?"What's going on there?" I can't help but wonder, not caring where we met before. Perhaps at some business banquets? That’s also why I feel familiar with him.The tension from the distance can even be felt in our deserted area; some of the couches on the side are also surrounded by what appear to be bodyguards in suits. This scene is something I can’t understand at all. What really is going on here?"So you came here knowing nothing?" I turn around and look at him, his eyes calmly watching the scene in the distance. He is looking around as if even if a fight brea

It had gone quiet, with no gun sounds, even screams only our breaths and the sound of shoes making contact with the floor. For some unknown reason, I also found my senses heightened in this situation, as I can follow and keep up with them even in the dark.When the sounds of footsteps that did not come from us reach my ears, I realize that we are not the only ones running in the second floor to who knows where.Because of the silence, I restrained myself from asking any questions and remained silent throughout. A few minutes later, it appears that we have arrived at our destination, as a door opens for us and we enter that room.In contrast to the outside, the room is not as dark and has consistent lighting. I take a look around and notice that it is also spacious, with only a couch and nothing else, and that it appears bland for a VIP room in a bar.However, the people who came before us made that room far more interesting and dangerous than it appears. There were men and some women

I swallowed and averted my gaze from him, my blood boiling for some unknown reason. No, I actually know. The excitement of what will happen is already getting into my head."Do you feel some excitement?" the devil asks again beside my ears. Yes, this man is a devil who continues to lure me into something forbidden and even unravel the "me" that I don’t know.His breath brushed against my ear as it tickled me, causing me to bite my lips. I turn and look at him, frowning and ready to scold him. However, as I finally saw the distance between our faces, all the words inside me vanished.“Aren’t you curious?” he squinted his eyes mesmerizingly, then leaned a little bit more until his lips were right beside my cheeks. My mind went black as our breaths almost touched each other.I should push him; my mind screams for that, and yet my body went completely stiff, and I can only listen to what he had to say."How do I know you? How come I’m so familiar?” he whispers in his deep voice, waking up
