She woke up with a start, opening her eyes to see a dark figure looming over her bed.
“Calvin?” she whispered, just before a hand clamped down over her mouth.
The dead weight of a large man fell upon her, pinning her onto the mattress. Another figure materialized at her side, and she felt a pinprick on her shoulder. She sank her teeth into the hand on her face, kicking her legs and trying her hardest to scream as the whole scene slowed and blurred.
She could feel her body being lifted as she struggled to keep her eyes open. Weightless, suspended, she felt like she was floating, lying on her back in the river. She remembered Calvin’s face when he leaned in to kiss her. It was the last thought that crossed her mind before everything went black.
