BrittanyAll my dreams and wants were stolen from me in the blink of an eye.Awakening in the middle of a nightmare, I realize I’m being sold like an animal to be studied and dissected in the name of science. Tragedy strikes, leaving me abandoned and sick. I am only moments from taking my last breath, when strong arms pull me from the darkness.I thought it was a blessing that he found me, the green man who had haunted my dreams. I let myself believe, for just one moment, I might find a small piece of happiness in this unknown world. But what is the old saying? ’Don’t count your chickens until they hatch!’A blood sucking parasite is eating me alive, literally, and no matter what, I’m not going to survive this horror story. My body is failing me. I beg him to let me go; I just want the pain to stop, but he won’t listen. He holds me down and I struggle weakly against his immense strength, choking as blood fills my lungs, when I can’t fight any more, Death opens its arms and invites me in.XuLMy harsh, brutal features have deterred all females, regardless of species. I long for companionship and love. Then I find her, my Kismet, the only one made just for me. The one precious thing I would worship above all others. But the fates are cruel, especially to a male like me.I am being forced to destroy the fragile bond that has formed between us, as I have to make the hardest decision of my life. One that will make me lose her either way. I hold her small, struggling body against me, tears flow down my face as she begs me to stop. My heart is crushed as I watch the light leave her beautiful eyes. Upon her final breath, I vow not even Death will keep what’s mine.
