"BETRAYED BY YOUR OWN blood, scorned by your lovers, abandoned by your friends... oh, cassiopeia. i cannot imagine the pain you must feel — the heartache, the melancholy and the rage... you must feel like everyone's forgotten about you, as if nothing can help you anymore, right? but i can, sweetheart," the prince-like gentleman smiled, "i can help you. it's just up to you if you take my hand."

he held out a hand, smirking like a devil.

"make a deal with me, little gift bearer."

"w-who are you?" cassiopeia asked, stuttering since the cold was clearly getting to her.

cassiopeia could have slapped herself for the small stutter but it was impossible not to stutter in this freezing winter weather.

"i'm your saviour, cassiopeia. i'll help you, get you some warm blankets and delicious food. you can think about my offer while eating and resting at my mansion — sound good?"

snowflakes adorned the hair of the angel-like prince, as he seduced her with his words.

it was already working.

cassiopeia was just so... tired... so hungry, so exhausted and her every bone ached for some warmth...

she knew she shouldn't have given in. she knew whatever he would ask of her, it wouldn't be worth it.

or would it?

survival.

anything is worth it if i can survive.

so the young teenage gift bearer took his hand.

"i accept your deal."

the smile on his face widened, so much it was unnatural.

cassiopeia's eyes doubled.

she tried to run. her feet just wouldn't move! why wouldn't they move? why can't i move? i need to move! her heartbeat was lowly thumping in her ears, and she heard her own scream before she even took action — she screamed.

who was this monster she had made a deal with?

i need to run away. why wouldn't i run away? why can't i run away? i want to run away — i need to run!
