Look What You Made Me Do

She has me under her spell. I'm not sure quite how long I've been under her control. I just know it's been a while since I was free. She enchanted me with her beauty. The beauty of an angel. Her dress, white as the pearly gates of heaven, glows brightly against the blackness of her lair. Her dark hair is pulled back tightly, falling down a way past her shoulders like a luminous waterfall. The sparkly jewel adorning her neck sparkle as the lights hit. Her plump lips, a beautiful red-purple tinge draw back to reveal her teeth, a perfect ivory to match her dress.

I sit still on the chair I've been led to, staring out into nothingness. It's as if I've been asleep. I feel her approach me from behind and jolt awake again. I glance back, frightened and catch a glimpse of her dress. I try to rise from my seat, but to no avail. Alas, the witch has trapped me somehow. I look around hurriedly to see where she is, kicking my feat as I grip the chair for dear life. I look up to see her raise her arms above me, about to cast a spell. A spell of imitation I realise as I feel my arms involuntarily lift with her own, like there is an invisible string attaching them. My mouth falls open and my eyes widen as it dawns on me that I am completely under her control...

Her smile grows wider and more sinister with each movement of our arms. She actually seems to be enjoying this.. For her, it seems, all of this is a game... Then she pushes me forward, and I feel the silk of her skirt brush my back, following her leg.

She comes around to face me, that evil grin glued to her gorgeous lips. I realise suddenly that I am free and stand quickly, spinning around to look at my captor. Her hand on the chair, she smiles at me, a glint in her eye as she holds my gaze. Again, I am mirroring her as she leans forward, effortlessly sliding toward the ground. I, meanwhile, grip the chair as I am pulled toward it and down me invisible magnetic force. She leans closer toward me as we rise.

I turn away quickly when I reach my full height. But her spell is stronger now and I can't bear to look away for long.  I turn to face her again, grabbing her wrist like it will give me some degree of control. She steps forward, quickly, dragging me along with her. I guess I don't have that much control after all. But, I don't think I really care.

I get lost in her dark eyes as she pulls me close and takes my other hand in hers. Then, she releases me with such force I spin away again. But the pull is too strong and I come in close again. I let go of her wrist, moving it to cradle her back so as not to lose her again.

She stares at me a moment before looking forward. I find my gaze shifting too as she leads us forward. We move so quickly it feels as if we are flying or gliding about the floor. Then we are spinning, too fast for me to see anything but her in front of me.

She lifts a leg and wraps it around me, leaning into me before untangling it and standing straight once more. She lets go and I spin before I fall into her again and we are gliding. She arches away from me and I reach to catch her, afraid she will fall.

Her face is fierce now as I pull away to look. She's not smiling anymore. She's focused. But I can't face it anymore and I put a hand on her cheek, moving in like a vampire to kiss her neck. I feel her hand on my shoulder and she pushes me away. The air is rushing around me as I fall quickly to the ground, face down. Right before I black out, I swear I hear her whisper, "look what you made me do".
