You sat up in your bed, a metallic taste hovered around your tongue

"What..?"
You mumbled
"What happened?"

James leaned over you, he was studying your face

"Hm?"
He hummed

"What happened?"
You asked
"I feel like shit and i can barely remember last night"

"Oh don't worry about that"
James hummed
"Your fine, you just have a hangover"

James brushed your hair out of your face and kissed your cheek

You nodded and got up, you looked down

You were wearing a white silk dress with blood stained down it

"What... happened?"
You asked, freaked by the blood

"I cut my hand by accident and it got over your dress"
James looked down
"Sorry"

You stood up

"No, no.. your good"
You smiled, holding his hands
"Is your hand okay though?"

He nodded

"Don't worry about me"
He said
"I'm just worried about you, you drank a lot last night"

You twisted your ring that bonded you both

"I'm gonna.. go for a shower"
You said, you let go of his hands

-

You had a shower and changed into something presentable

You walked out of the room and up the stairs onto the ground floor

A blond woman with blood red lips stood in Front of you

"Darling, you have been lied to..."
She hummed, the tight black dress was wrapped around her.. pulling all her curves and shapes out to view. She was beautiful

"By who?"
You asked, stepping back

"That's not important.. what is.. is that you can have eternity to figure it out and bring revenge"
She said, a sharp claw extended from her glove

You shook your head slightly

"N.. no thanks"
You mumbled
"I'm.. good"

"Are you sure?"
She asked, a smile creeped up her face
"There will be rules to follow though"

"No"
You repeated, louder
"I'm happy as i am"

She shrugged

"As you wish"
She said, you blinked and she was gone

You walked up the stairs towards the bar

Liz wasn't there, it was kind of unusual

You leaned across behind the bar, took a cigarette and lit it, then placed five dollars in the ashtray

There was deep laughter from behind you

You span around and it was your husband, he had a smile on his face

"What?"
You asked

He leaned on his cane

"What??"
You inhaled the cigarette

"Pretty girls like you shouldn't be smoking"
He joked

"Why are you gone during the day?"
You asked
"I barely ever see you anymore"

"Just ask, dear"
He said, taking your cigarette
"My time is yours"

He inhaled your cigarette

"I'm so glad i married you"
He said
