Black Opal Books Presents
Fanaman Curse
Piercing nails
clawed Charlotte’s skin
She fought the presence that tried to take
control
It scratched deep
wells into her flesh Charlotte felt as though she was trapped
in one of her nightly nightmares
Without warning Charlotte stopped fighting
She had learned from those nightmares to let the demons wash over her
She forced the lower extremities of her body to go limp
This always betrayed the demons to their own greed
When her opponent lessened its deathening grip
the opportunity came
Charlotte transferred her strength into her arms
and fought hard for her life
tossing the figure away
As always, the figure vanished
as though never there
Hysterical laughter from within the Conservatory filled
Charlotte’s ears
Only the sight of her father lunging into the
Conservatory eased her mind
