Weddings Can Be Murder
“Everything felt so cold. And dark, a blackness deep as a well.
Bright lights flashed across the far wall of her enclosure rousing Victoria from her fog of pain. She squinted, moaned at the intrusion. Her breath came shallow and hot. The burning pain in her shoulder ebbed a little. She tried to sit up but the fiery sensation blasted back at her, flattening her to the floor once again, and with it the fuzziness in her mind.
She lay there for a time—no idea how long.
When her eyes opened the quali...ty of light had turned from pure black to deep gray, a charcoal world. The cement beneath her felt like a slab of ice. Her extremities were numb. Her body shook with the intensity of the cold, except for the burn in her core, the fire coming from her shoulder. Something told her she was in shock but she hadn’t the clarity of thought to decide what that meant or figure out what she could do about it. She drifted away once again.
Somewhat more lucidity when she woke. The charcoal air had brightened to deep gray.MoreLess
