Samantha's P. O. V
I slowly opened my eyes, blinking a few times to clear my vision. The familiar ceiling stared back at me, and a soft sigh escaped my lips - I was in my room, in Oakdale Manor.
My memories were a mess, like everything I once knew had just suddenly... vanished. I closed my eyes again, trying to remember what exactly happened to me.
Bits by bit, it all started coming back to me. The necklace, Ashford, the manor... Ryan. My eyes flew open, as I remembered it all.
The forbidden area, the incense, Ryan's eyes... the fight. I pressed a hand to my bandaged head and another to my wrapped stomach, both hurt like crazy.
Ryan actually tried to kill me?
The memory alone sent a shiver down my spine, but even with the evidence staring right at me, I still couldn't believe it.
