My Monster
But he's suddenly standing there in front of me, black blood oozing from his eyes.
"K-Kaziel...honey...please..."
He tilts his head. "He's gone. Don't you recognize me? It's the hollow."
Terror paralyzes me to the spot, and when I part my lips to speak, pain rips through my chest.
"This is your fate. You can't run from it," he deadpans.
I cough hard, blood spilling from my lips. And when I look down, his hand is in my chest, his fingers wrapped around my heart. Then he rips it out, and my vision whites out.
