Annie's voice is sharp, slicing through the silence as she confronts him once again. Her cheeks flush with anger, and her hands tremble slightly as she points an accusatory finger. He barely responds, his eyes glazed, as if he’s tired of the endless cycle of blame and apology. The room feels suffocating, as if the stale air itself is pressing down on them.
He finally snaps, his words tumbling out without thought.
"You're an absolute child, an irresponsible child! What the hell am I going to do with you?"
"If I'm such a child, why don't you just take me inside your body and make me your damn baby? That's what you've always wanted, isn't it?"
Annie steps closer, her eyes bright with a peculiar excitement. She begins to chant in a language he doesn’t recognize, her tone echoing oddly, reverberating through the walls. The air feels charged, and the room spins as her words fill every corner. He watches in confusion, his disbelief giving way to a creeping sense of dread.
"That's a BRILLIANT idea," she says, as she begins the incantation.
He doubles over, clutching at his stomach as his limbs shrink and soften. His vision fades to darkness, the noise of Annie’s chanting echoing until it’s the only thing left. The spell’s power washes over him, and his consciousness flickers, struggling to hold onto itself.
He reaches for his belly and discovers the cord, tethering him to the wall. The world feels muffled and distant, his senses dulled by the warmth and liquid. Panic sets in as he flails helplessly, unable to escape the strange womb that now contains him.
"Settle down in there, little guy. Mommy's tired now, and she needs her rest."
He realizes that escape is impossible, and the maternal power Annie wields is absolute. The warmth is suffocating, but there is no comfort—only the knowledge that he is completely at her mercy.
The world outside grows faint, and only Annie’s presence remains. The warmth, once terrifying, now becomes a strange comfort, and in the darkness, he wonders if this is what she truly wanted all along.
