He gripped the knife with more force.

But a strange madness was slowly making its way into his mind.

Just a slash and she would be dead. But what after that? She would die and that would be the end. And he would once again be left alone. Without anyone!

No that cannot be it.

She cannot die.

She has to live! Yes! But living isn't that easy. He would make every day of hers a living nightmare.

As these thoughts entered his mind, devil became his companion. And his entity became monstrous.

The moonlight too changed its color. It turned blood red. Wails in the distance of ferocious beasts haunted the place.

The scene looked like it was being replayed.

Yes! In her dreams!

And he looked like that very man. Oh God! Did she dream of this nightmare beforehand in some kind of oracle. Or was this a nightmare she was dreaming which would end anytime.

She was very tense.

Why was all this happening?

Tears kept falling down her cheeks. She looked at his face and was caught by surprise. He was looking at her with a strange emotion. As if he was admiring her.

But in seconds it changed its hue. The admiration was changed to a primitive emotion: Anger.

Such sudden change of emotions could only belong to a psychopath.

He held the knife tightly now as if he would cut her neck there and then. But then he smiled. It was a devillish smile.

He held the knife lightly now as if playing with it. Then he glided its tip down her neck to her collarbone.

Now she realised his intentions.
