Book 2
Chapter 1 – The Nightmares
PATREA.
I was naked. Blood was trailing down my thighs, but I ignored it, even if the pain was coursing through my whole body.
My feet were tired from running, and my chest was heaving from panting, but I kept springing forward. I had no idea what creature was running after me, but I knew I needed to get away.
“Aaaaah!” I screamed when my body fell into a black hole, and my stomach churned as I tried to grab something to hold on to.
But there was nothing.
I was falling endlessly, and I just wished for my body to crash somewhere, even if it meant death.
Death was better than not knowing when the falling would end.
“Patrea! Patrea!” I heard a female’s voice calling for me, making me f0rce my eyes to snap open. I found myself staring into the dark purple eyes of my granddaughter.
“You’re having another bad dream…” Althea, my eighteen-year-old granddaughter, helped me sit up from lying down before she took a glass of water from my bedside table and gave it to me.
I remained silent as I gulped the water until the glass was empty. My chest was heaving, and my feet felt tired as if I were really running. I knew it was just a nightmare, but it seemed real, especially since I could feel the soreness in my body.
Althea stood up, took a small towel from my dresser, and wiped the sweat off my forehead. “Do you want me to sleep beside you?”
“No. Go back to your room. You have classes tomorrow, so you need to sleep.”
She sighed as she sat sideways on the edge of my bed, staring at the window in front of her. “We need to find a solution for your nightmares, Mama. I doubt you ever sleep at all, and the moment you do, you always end up screaming in your sleep.”
“I’m sorry, I keep waking you up.”
“It’s not me. It’s you and whatever you are seeing in those dreams. Maybe we should reach out to the coven, I’m sure they can find a way.”
“The problem is me, Althea. I can’t seem to forget that part and it haunts me even in my sleep.”
“Let me tamper with your mind then. Just teach me what to do, so we can erase that part.”
“And what will happen after? My mind will go back to almost thirty years ago? I won’t remember you. I won’t remember Lucy and little Aiden. And I will surely suffer if I remember that I’m pregnant and I have no baby and no husband at all.” I let out a deep breath and rested my back on the headboard. ” Tampering with my mind will just create more problems.”
