"Alice," I breathed, astonished.
“愛麗絲。”我震驚地壓低聲音說道。
"Yes, your little friend. I was surprised to see her in the clearing. So I guess her coven ought tobe able to derive some comfort from this experience. I get you, but they get her. The onevictim who escaped me, quite an honor, actually.
“是的,你的那位小朋友。當(dāng)我在空地上看到她時(shí),我很是驚訝。所以我猜她的巫會應(yīng)當(dāng)能從這個(gè)經(jīng)歷中得到一些安慰。我得到了你,但他們得到了她。唯一一個(gè)從我身邊逃脫的受害者,確實(shí)是個(gè)紀(jì)念品,真的。”
"And she did smell so delicious. I still regret that I never got to taste… She smelled even betterthan you do. Sorry I don't mean to be offensive. You have a very nice smell. Floral,somehow…"
“她聞起來確實(shí)很美味。我依然感到后悔,我沒來得及嘗一口……她聞起來甚至比你還好。對不起我不是有意要冒犯你的。你聞起來確實(shí)不錯(cuò)?;ㄏ愕奈兜?,不知怎的……”
He took another step toward me, till he was just inches away. He lifted a lock of my hair andsniffed at it delicately. Then he gently patted the strand back into place, and I felt his coolfingertips against my throat. He reached up to stroke my cheek once quickly with his thumb,his face curious. I wanted so badly to run, but I was frozen. I couldn't even flinch away.
他向我走了一步,但仍保持著幾英寸的距離。他拿起我的一縷頭發(fā),優(yōu)雅地輕嗅著。然后,他溫柔地把那縷頭發(fā)放回原處,我感覺到他冰冷的指尖觸到了我的喉嚨。他用一根拇指飛快地輕拍了一下我的臉頰,臉上寫滿了好奇。我迫切地想要逃開,但我僵住了。我甚至沒法退縮。
"No," he murmured to himself as he dropped his hand, "I don't understand." He sighed. "Well, I suppose we should get on with it. And then I can call your friends and tell them whereto find you, and my little message."
“不,”他放下手,低聲地自言自語道。“我不明白。”他嘆了口氣。“好吧,我猜我們還是把剩下的事情做完吧。然后我就能打電話給你的朋友們,告訴他們在哪里能找到你,還有我小小的留言。”
I was definitely sick now. There was pain coming, I could see it in his eyes. It wouldn't beenough for him to win, to feed and go. There would be no quick end like I'd been counting on.My knees began to shake, and I was afraid I was going to fall.
現(xiàn)在我真的惡心起來了。我的痛苦源于我在他眼中所看到的一切。對他來說,僅僅是贏得游戲,吃飽喝足然后離開是遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠的。事情不會像我指望的那樣迅速地結(jié)束。我的膝蓋開始顫抖,我害怕自己就要倒下去了。
