A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

SHE IS DEAD

That night Edwin stayed up late. He couldn't stop thinking about today. He sat in a chair with a glass of wolfsbane potion in his hand. The headache didn't give him a minute of relief.

Ruth was sleeping in the bed for about an hour ago. He stayed beside her until she fell asleep, but once he confirmed that she was asleep, he got out of the bed.

There was no point in trying to toss and turn in the bed.

After some time, Edwin found his eyes getting heavier, and he leaned back to sit comfortably in the chair. His eyelids drooped, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.

Ruth turned to lay on her back and snuggled in her duvet, wrapping it tightly around her. She was in a deep sleep, and soon she landed in the world that was meant only for her.

She again found herself in the dark space with no one else around her. She was now used to getting there, and it didn't scare her anymore. The only thing that made her nervous was what she would discover next in that dark space.
