Chapter 459 A Nightmare She Could Not Wake From

Laura stared at her reflection in the mirror, unable to control the piercing scream that escaped her lips. The face staring back at her was covered in fine white fur, and her once long, silky black hair had turned completely snow-white. She was unrecognizable. "This isn't me! This isn't me!" she shrieked, grabbing the mirror from the maid's hands and smashing it. Wesley rushed in and pulled her into a tight embrace. "Laura," he murmured, holding her firmly. "Don't be afraid. I'll find a doctor who can cure you. I won't let anything happen to you." His voice trembled as he clung to her. Laura struggled against him. "Let go of me! Let go!" "Laura, don't move. Don't be afraid." No matter how much she thrashed and sobbed, Wesley refused to release her. "I'll stay with you until we find a doctor who can treat you. I will make sure you recover. I promise." The events of the previous night flashed through Laura's mind, and a terrifying thought struck her. Maybe it hadn't been a dream.
