“I changed h clenched teeth “I want to stay human! Make it stop! Please!”

I felt a hand brush my forehead and assumed it must be Jonathon “Don’t touch me!” I screamed and felt his hand fall away “I hate you!” I spat, still not opening my eyes

I couldn’t believe he’d done this to h this amount of pain?

“Patrick?” I heard Jonathon ask

“Ignore her It’s the venom Surly you remember your own transformation? You sounded just like her and I do believe that you said that you hatedthe process,” said Patrick and I screamed at his words How dare he talk about me like I couldn’t hear him!

The pain was unbearable I hadn’t thought et hotter but they did I was sure the pain was about to splitto shatter into millions of pieces

And Gabriel had been right I was on fire but I was cold too My limbs shook uncontrollably in violent tre I could get my hands on

The burning was all consu It was all I could think about I couldn’t even conjure up the ie of my son I hadn’t even had a chance to see ht now they didn’t h my veins, I hated the a baby I could have stayed huain Even without them I had made my choice to be by Jonathon’s side forever

This had to stop eventually but it felt like it was never going to stop I didn’t see how hell could be worse than this

The pain radiated from every limb and every pore It was everywhere and therefore I couldn’t escape it

“Kill me! Please! I don’t want this! It hurts! It burns! Kill ed them but my words fell upon deaf ears

They stopped talking after that I heard the door open and close and I knew that Patrick had left

“I’ony in his voice and for just ahi him When would it stop? I didn’t deserve him Not at all I was hateful and resentful where he was kind and forgiving I resolved to not speak anymore but I couldn’t control my screams

Hours, orto have to et you home Dr Crane was supposed to deliver the baby—babies—at ho an innocent”

I screahter shut as I felt his ar so fast that it hurt my ears
