Chapter 19

I had another nightmare that night and the following nights. I've been living in the palace for two weeks now and each night, I always had a nightmare about Zephyr either beating me up and killing me or raping me. This gradually plunged me into insomnia and then depression. I couldn't eat properly and I grew scared of sleeping. Tara tried to talk me out of it but she couldn't. It was apparent that she was also scared too.
Elsie noticed my sudden withdrawal and she tried to find out what the problem was but I couldn't bring myself to tell her. I knew telling someone would help to bring me some relief but I still felt scared, I didn't want to recall what he did to me so many days ago.
Ana hadn't been feeling well so she didn't find out about my withdrawal and it was better she didn't know, I really didn't want to add to her problems.
