CHAPTER 2: THE UNRAVELING
Let me take you,
to heaven, to hell
where the lines are blurred between
pleasure and pain,
where we are both bound and free.
Let me show you
the Red Room.
She couldn't keep feeding this suffocating hunger that was growing inside of her.
The Red Room had begun to pulse through her blood, like an obsession. And the more she tried to resist it, the more she felt it's all consuming grip. It was a hot whisper on her neck, amplifying her insatiable appetite.
The Red Room lingered in Lilith's mind even when she wasn't dreaming of it. Right below her unconscious, crawling to the surface.
One evening, she found herself in his Adam's room, trying to look for a poem he shared with her the other day. Something beautiful and raw about longing. Her eyes were drawn to the open notebook on the desk. It was like an instinct, something alluring, pulling her to it. She flipped it open, her fingers were slightly shaking as they traced the ink on the page. Instead she found something else that struck a nerve.
A poem titled, "The Red Room."
She felt her pulse speed up, her eyes scanning the words. The words resonated within her. They somewhat mirrored her experiences treading the threshold of the mysterious red room.
When Adam came into his room, he caught her reading. He raised his eyebrow out of confusion. A trace of embarrassment flashed across his face.
"What are you doing?" He paused when he saw the notebook.
Lilith closed the book slowly, goosebumps still pricked her skin, from what could be considered a spiritual contact.
"I was looking for that poem you read to me,"
"But this...the Red Room. What inspired this poem?"
Adam hesitated before answering her. He was choosing his words carefully, but there was a certain vulnerability in his eyes.
"I...um...well." He scratched his nose; feeling nervous.
