章 16: End of curse

Layla

10 years ago...

As I entered the cave and ran through the empty cells, a shiver ran down my back, everything was so dark that I didn't know where I was. I just wanted someone to come and rescue me.

—Can't you read girl, you can't be here —says a female voice inside one of the cells.

—I... I'm sorry, I'm lost because I got distracted —Layla says in a shy voice.

—You just made a very serious mistake, child, and I'm not going to soften up with you —the voice replies.

—What do you mean? —Layla asks confusedly.

—I'm the woman those bastards left here rotting, but you know I never forget and I made them pay for everything just like anyone who comes to annoy me —the woman replies.

—I... I just want to get out of here, please —says Layla.

—It's too late, no one can save you from a fate worse than death —the woman replies.

—Stop it, help me, please! —Layla screams desperately.
