A Heart Within

*** Below is an extract somewhere along the book I am writing called A Heart Within (previous name was: A Heart in a Storm) following a Prince of the Hailington Kingdom called Silas and a Princess from the Andorra Kingdom called Luna. This extract will be edited as my book is in first person, but chose to write this in third person to have more of an effect. Hope you enjoy :) ***




As the darkness sank into her veins, she felt the evil take her over into the abyss where she knows she belongs. Her heart has suddenly failed her, the ivy reached the part which she used for love and love is something she can no longer do. The poison wraps around the numbness her heart is in during the metaphosising of stone. Stone, so that she can no longer feel. Stone, to become the person she was meant to be. Hated. Alone. The girl that she is forced to become. As she closes her eyes now, she can feel the truth. Hated. Alone. Lonely.

No thoughts of Silas should cross her mind as she takes the last breath, before the darkness reaches to her eyes covering up those sweet hazel eyes that once would not kill. But now the abyss of darkness is filling up every inch of her, collapsing to the floor she feels her head banging against the metal bars of the cell she is in.

From being a girl who was a homebody to being hated to gaining a life she didn’t want, she thinks that maybe this is for the best to leave it here just a few hours before her execution.
