• ELOISE •
I no longer felt the softness of my bed, but something crusted. The cold seeped through my clothes.
Something prickled my face, not just in one spot. My lashes fluttered, and they felt heavy as if something had covered them.
Bewildered by this change, I opened my eyes. My vision blurred for a minute, but after a few blinks, I saw the heavy and pale sky.
Sky?
I pressed my hands to my sides and sat up, cold air expelling from my mouth.
"Where am I?" I mumbled with trembling eyes as I took in the snow-clad area. In panic, I forced myself to my feet.
I spun to take a long look around, but I couldn't find anyone or anything, just a path of endless snow and the cold air howling.
How strange. I stared at my hands, which I assumed would be covered in snowbites, but they weren't. I did feel the cold, but at the same time, I did not.
