Who Is Trapping Whom?

"And you told them that you love Alex?" asked Charles through gritted teeth as he walked in and held her hands. "I think you are sick and need rest. Come with me." 

She frowned as she felt his grip was too tight but when she looked at his blazing eyes, she paused.

She did not remember exactly what she had said as she was too afraid and replied honestly whatever they asked.

"But…" when she looked at her shoulders, there was no spider anymore. The room was clean and except for the feeling that her heels were a bit sticky from the slime falling from the body of Georgia, there was nothing she could point at.

When she noticed the strange look in the eyes of everyone around her, she accepted the offer of Charles and nodded her head.

"Yes, I think I got too tired from the preparations for the ceremony and needed rest. I will go to my chamber and sleep for a while." she accepted as she turned to leave but Charles did not let go of her hands/.
