152 Nymeris Lyla I struggled between sleep and consciousness .

My body felt heavy as if unseen chains held down every part of it .

My head throbbed with a dull , piercing pain that grew louder with every attempt to stir .

I struggled to open my eyes , but something was pressing down on me .

It was so suffocating that for a moment ; I forgot to breathe .

I struggled , gasping for breath , thrashing all over my bed as I prayed for relief .

Just as the darkness seemed to heighten , and I felt like I could die any moment , the force stopped .

My eyes fluttered open finally , and I gasped .

I was in a strange place a strange compound but it looked ancient and strangely familiar .

The air was thick with the scent of wet wood and damp earth mingled with the faint fragrance of wildflowers planted at every corner of the compound .

A wooden fence enclosed the entire compound , carved with very elegant designs .

Towering above the fence were houses carved with thick stones and logs .

The rooftops all had asbestos and carved wooden beams , and in front of the house was a bold wooden sign that said Alpha House .

Where am I ? What is this place ? I whispered to myself , trembling .

My heart raced as I took a tentative step forward , my bare feet sinking into the soft earth .

The compound was quiet except for the rustling of leaves as I moved on them .

I turned in a slow circle , trying to understand my surroundings , when suddenly someone threw open the wooden gate guarding the compound .

I froze .

A woman stormed through it , her long , brown hair with two silver stripes running down the front of the hair flowing like a storm cloud behind her .

A fierce expression was on her face , and fury filled her eyes .

She wore a deep crimson flowing dress with silver embroidery at the end .

Behind her , a young man followed close , with desperation on his face .

His broad shoulders were tense , his jaw clenched as he reached out to the woman .

Neriah , wait , he pleaded .

Neriah ? 145 I stared at the woman who was supposed to be my recantation .

The only thing that could tell us apart was the dress she had on , compared to my wrinkled jogger and crop Tee I was wearing .

Else that , I was basically staring at a mirror of myself .

She whirled around .

Her eyes were blazing .

Dont you dare follow me ! Can you just wait ? The man chasing after her sighed .

But she spun around again and continued walking .

The man reached out and grasped her arm , pulling her to himself .
