Chapter 20 - Confusion

Chapter 20

Soft heavy breaths in the darkness stimulated him. The strong smell of pine, like a sharp soap or lotion pulled him up.

Brandon opened his eyes. And instantly froze.

He felt....like he was dead.

He felt so cold he gasped and bit his cheek to stop from moaning. And even though he felt a weight over his entire body that reminded him of cover he still felt a silver chill all along his bones. And just off the edges of his mind was this knowing ache. Biting into his skin all around his stomach was a pain that he didn't know the origin of. He felt tight and yet lose there around his hips and on his left side like his guts were going to burst through his belly. But pain he could deal with. He had to deal with it. But the unknown he had to decipher....or get the hell away from it. He needed to find out where he was.
