Elizabeth's Point Of View
"What?" Sebastian unwraps my arms from around his neck and I step down on one leg.?
I sway on my feet- or foot, holding onto him for support. "I don't feel so good."
"Hazel, what do you mean it struck you?" Sebastian asks.?
I open my mouth but only a big yawn comes out. Before I could speak again, three similar needles strike Sebastian in the neck and arm.
"Just like that," I mumbled.?
And I pass out.
Muffled voices reach my ears, not making sense. My eyes feel like they're weighted down by tons of sand. With herculean effort, I pry my eyes open. My blurry view clears the outline of the roof above my head and it comes into focus.
Wait, roof?
Though my limbs feel sluggish, I turn? my head to take in my surroundings. A bare room with no window. I try to move my hands but feel them tied at my back.?
Goddess, not this again.
It takes me a moment to realize the worst part of this situation. Where's Sebastian?!
