61. Truth & Decisions YILEYNA

My head was screaming with agony when I woke up. I looked around, realising I was in the cabin, on the floor in the kitchen area. A few bottles of wine lay scattered on the floor, and my entire body was aching.

What happened last night? I remembered crying but then I had gone to the spot Theon had told me to wait for him. I just… I had needed to see what he’d say, if anything. I waited until twelve, for two hours I waited in the cold, promising myself that if he didn’t come today, I would truly never forgive him, and he didn’t.

He hadn’t come.

I was a fool to think he would.

But wasn’t that exactly what I was? I was always foolish when it came to Theon. I pressed a hand to my forehead, feeling broken.

I was an idiot… I really was…

I got to my feet, running my fingers through my hair. What time was it anyway? The pain of last night was still there, but the throbbing in my head was overpowering it and I welcomed it. It was then that my heart began pounding when I realised the entire cabin was covered in a layer of frost. Right beneath where I lay a thick white layer of ice was spreading outwards. “What on Kaeladia…” I murmured.

My heart thundered with fear as I stared at the ground, remembering what had happened back when Madelia had done that spell…

Did I do this?

I got up and rushed to the door to unlock it, but it was stuck, I had to give it a hard push before it opened, and I stared outside.

It was far worse than what I was expecting. It was obvious yesterday’s storm had been far worse. The snow which had covered the ground was now entirely frozen, and everything as far as I could see was covered in ice.

The trees were coated with ice as long icicles hanging off them. I stared at the snow right outside the steps of the cabin. My stomach lurched as I stared at the ice that paved as far as I could see. Solid ice.

I backed away from the door, fear enveloping me.

Was it crazy that deep down I felt like I did that? 2 I shut and locked the cabin door, staring at the frost that covered the table, the worktops… the walls… the logs in the fire…

My heart was thundering.

If I did this, surely there must be a way to undo it? What if someone saw this?

The confusion within me threw me into turmoil.
