Chapter 12: Shattered reality

Although Alice was tired, she could not sleep. She lied in bed, staring at the ceiling, thinking that not too long ago she had been with a man who claimed to be a vampire, and that he had lived for hundreds of years and had spent countless lifetimes with her. How absurd.

Alice thought to herself how all this could be possible, but she failed to come up with any conclusions that satisfied her. Maybe he’s delusional, she thought. Maybe she was delusional for thinking he was a vampire in the first place. For if she truly believed that he was actually a vampire, then what Oliver was saying wouldn’t be far from the truth. She would actually be the reincarnation of Helena.
