Infatuation Of Darkness

Chapter 162 - One Hundred And Sixty-two

The light flicked and she looked up at them in horror. All of them were turned on at once and then shut off. Why—what in the world was this ghost in a playful mood for?

Could it not just kill and get away with it?

She had seen the stairs when the lights were on so she ran to them but didn't expect to be running in a side table and falling.

A hand clamped on her Ankle and she is screamed.

"Let go!" She yelled and tried to get it off of her. She screamed as the fingernails dipped into her skin. She yanked her foot back but it didn't let go. Tears ran down her cheeks in fear as she thought that she thought that she was going to die tonight. She was sure of it. The whole incident was giving off killing vibes.

Kicking its hands off of her foot and then yanking her foot away, she tried her all desperate any amateur attempts to get away from it. She was not thinking through and all she thought was just get away without any concrete planning.

She didn't even dare look back at the ghastly creature. She or he, or most likely it will be a horrifying creature that would scare Alexes living daylights out. There was no way that she was going to turn back and look at the horrifying creature.

She would not dare to do so!

"Let go!" She yelled again. She had questioned her speed of thrashing around to get her hand of an as much as she thrashed it seemed like the ghost only happened to firm its hold on her more. Just not ready to let go.

"Come back!" A sudden roar chilled Alexis spine as the ghost roared its words and they bounced off the walls making them echo and Alexis nearly peeing her pants.

She was scared shitless. It was not how she had imagined dying.

She stops thrashing around and felt the ghost rumble in satisfaction as it's hand vibrated and made Alexis feel it on her leg. 

She was not going to die, she vowed in her mind. She would live through this and then have people made a movie on her.

She breathed in for courage and freed her foot of any strength. As expected the grape of the demon loosened on her foot eventually. Freeing herself of any resistance and such, she demonstrated that she had given up.

Her body showed no movement other than the rhythmic and quicker than usual rise and fall of her chest. She had hoped for it to take the bait and it had.

It's grip loosened a little.

As it loosened Alexis waited a bit more to be certain of it.

The grip was loosened, the demon had thought that Alexis had given up as she did not put up any strength or resistance against the assaults.

She breathed in a huge breath, placed all her focus on the foot that was gripped by the demon. She released the breath, yanked her foot out of the grip and lifted herself.

She placed her feet firmly on the ground and lifted herself. Her body rose in the air and she slightly stumbling yet with all the power she had made run.

With the knowledge of the fact that was most probably behind her running and trying to catch up with her, she had missed the stairs and continued to run around it towards the little hallway.

She had nowhere to go to or maybe she did but in fear of what was ahead of her, she didn't turn back around to look at what she missed. She just carried on to run and run.

She remembered the time when she had had a similar run-in with something like this.

A demon chasing her around and how she almost died that day.

She had just come home from school and she was happy because today her mother was supposed to be taking her to her grandmother's house for the spring break. Everything was perfect there, from the very paint on the walls to the people living around them. 

They were kind and generous. Thoughtful too. They were the people that Alexis wanted to surround herself with but often was faced with the opposite. 

People that had malice and deceit inside them. They were rotten to the soul. Like her stepfamily. She never understood why they did not like her. Alexis has never posed any threat to them or anything of a similar kind. from the very day that she was introduced to Thomas as a mother's boyfriend she had always then warm and welcoming towards him. ready that day was now going to be a new addition to the family she was even happier when she knew that there was going to be a sibling for her, which was Ashton. 

Imagine her surprise when these two demons were going to be the people who were going to torment her to death. 

She had a huge smile on her face when she first saw Thomas, somewhere as her potential father and had helped him numerous times to help in wooing her mother. Perhaps now that she realised it was all her fault. 

She should have maintained her distance instead of trusting them from the very start. She had completely thrown herself into their arms and invited them to do whatever with her life as she had to welcome them in such an innocent way that had attracted the demon. 

The demons who had very gracious the accepted the invitation given and then taken the reins of the situation in their hands. 

After that everything went down for Alexis. 

Her school life, however, has to be maintained well because that would be reflected and her mother would have questioned it. Or at least she would have, now that Alexis noticed am mother won't have even noticed. 

The corridor was which usually seemed like it was always never-ending seemed to have finished before it started. Her thoughts of escaping the demon immediately came to an end. 

Out of solutions and feeling hopeless, Alexis stopped and just stood where she realised what was happening. 

Where was she to go from where? The hallways had rooms but what rooms was she to hide in from a ghost? 

It could probably break any door in a snap or if not then most probably enter the room through a wall. 

It was not like the ghost was a vampire and need permission before entering. 

But that would seem better now. 

Her legs Felt like Noddles as she stood in the hallway waiting for her impending doom. It was bound to happen, who could ever be able to get away from a ghost.

She waited with her feet stuck to the ground. Her legs were working on their own. They had given up but she had not. She wanted to move away but it was so difficult to move her legs. They were just stuck. 

The hallway sense empty.

The hair on her neck rose. She could feel someone standing behind her. 

With all the strength left inside her, she closed her eyes and then turned around. She was face to face it by now. Her eyes were forcefully shut.

She felt the shaking of her bones on her skin. That was how fearful she felt. 

She struggled to open her eyes as opening her eyes would take her to a horrifying reality. 

But according to bailey Peterson, the reality was what Alexis was in right now. even if Alexis chose not to open her eyes it was a matter of time before the reality caught up with her. It was better to just accept rather than letting it give her a shock of a lifetime.  She slowly opened her eyes. The amount of stress she had put up in closing her eyes it took a few seconds for her to regain the focus and she was not in a hurry for that. 

Her eyes rat the area in front of her. They were still trying to focus on one thing by what matter the most was not there. 

There was nothing in front of her! 

An as much as that relieved her it was just as scary as anything else! 

She swallowed in relief. At least that.

She shook in her ground. Something was breathing on her neck. She could feel the hot breath being blown against her skin erupting goosebumps that had once been relieved when she did not see anyone in front of her. 

It was standing behind her.

Right behind her and she could feel it. 

The sound of its breathing came louder by the second as it seemed to be coming closer to her ear. There was a slight growling as breathed. 

"Please.." the word slipped out of Alexis's tongue unconsciously. 

The growling stopped and so did that panting. It moved away and what confirmed it was the hit breathe as no longer on the neck. 

Before Alexis could turn around and see a horrifying wail was heard and she wasted no time in sprinting away.
