Inside her mind

DISCLAIMER: THE CHARACTERS AND STORYLINE BELONG TO ME. PLEASE DO NOT STEAL THEM. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST ENJOY THE STORY1

Do you want to hear a story? A story of betrayal and murder? Ok, let me tell you my story. As I sit here staring at the white walls I try and remember. They tried to tell me I was insane. I’m not crazy. At least I didn’t used to be. I still see him in my mind. His cold, dead eyes. He talks to me sometimes. He never really goes away. Well anyways, you told me you wanted to hear a story. Well here’s my story. You don’t mind if I tell it in the third person do you? I hate to actually think that was me.

Her name was Morgan. Morgan Tyler. She was a simple girl who lived a simple life. Or at least she liked to think so. She woke up every morning and got ready for work. She worked at a bookshop like a good little girl. The bookshop was called, Lethal Dreams. Strange right? She thought so too. Her hair was a long midnight black and blazing green eyes. She had a slim figure, haunted and closed in a sort of way. People also liked the idea of the cat that roamed her bookshop. A cat with the same midnight black fur and green eyes. His name was Salem.

One day Morgan found herself behind the counter of her bookshop reading, what else, a book. Her cat brushed against her foot which dangled her black sandal. Then a man entered the door. That’s the moment her life changed. He was a tall man. He had short black hair and the same blazing green eyes. His name was Hunter. Isn’t it ironic? Hunter. HA! As her eyes fixated on him she knew that was the end for her. This was the man she wanted. Did he want her too?

One year later and he had proposed to her. They were in love. Morgan and Hunter. Or at least she thought they were. No one, especially Hunter, could forget the crazed look in her eyes when she saw him with another woman.
