POLL: What Do You Think Of This Short Piece?
The next morning I was still lying back on the velvet cushions. A different feeling surged through me, strength. Melantha was beside me, awake and smiling intently.
“I thought your eyes were going to stay shut forever. You’re much more beautiful now, in my opinion. Not that you weren’t gorgeous before, but you’re just so stunning.” Her hand stroked my hair as if I was her pet.
“Melantha, what are you talking about?” My voice came ou rugged.
She chuckled. “Oh, I forgot. You’re oblivious to what you are, aren’t you? How silly of me." As if she was thinking, she paused. “Come.” Melantha clutched my wrist, sending heat through my body. “Close your eyes, my love.” Without a word, I did as she ordered.
Melantha led me through the room, over and around the things that rested on the floor. She stopped me and with force and twisted me so that I was facing a certain way.
Melantha murmured, “Open, young one.” And she pecked my cheek.
My eyes shot open, and what was standing in front of me was a Faerie. The Faerie had jet black hair that swept to the side, sun-kissed skin and a pair of wings that had crimson and golden swirls that spiraled onto his bare back. The Faerie was me.
My unknown reflection made me gape. “Melantha,” With satisfaction practicly twinkling in her eyes, she nodded “What have you done?”
“Aren’t you pleased, my love?” Gloominess muffled her expression, but I knew it was all a show.
“Melantha, you’ve turned me into a Faerie!” I tried to sound as outraged as I could.
She looked truly taken aback, “Young one, didn’t you know? Never drink with Faeries.”
“What did you give me, Melantha?” I spat through exposed teeth.
"Dear, that's really irrelivent. We're together now.” She was expressionless.
Tears welled in my eyes, “Why me? I was just an ordinary human, petty enough to fall for your tricks, your good looks.”
“Faeries are supposed to be beautiful, and you were perfect, you are perfect.” She wrapped her arms around my waist and whispered, “My Caleb.”
I asked this question a while ago, but I'd like some more opinions on a few different questions.
1. What traits do you get from these characters?
2. Is it too fast paced?
3. Are you a Fantasy fan?
4. Did you enjoy it?
5. Did this compel you to read more?
6. Overall, what did you think?
7. Do you have any suggestions (including if you find mistakes)?
Thanks in advance ;D
