Chapter 23: This is all my imagination. That's it.
Catherine suddenly froze as she looked at her reflection.
Her reflection smiled softly and lifted her hand.
Catherine looked at her hand, rechecking if she had raised it subconsciously. But she didn't. Her had was not raised while her reflections hand had it's hand raised.
Catherine chuckled softly to herself. She kept repeating, "This is all my imagination. This is not happening."
She suddenly had an epiphany. If this was a cartoon, she would have probably shouted, 'Eureka!'
She just realized that she was just trapped in the curse cast by that king, and this was all just because of that. She was probably just imagining all this because of that curse.
But, that realization, instead of reducing her fear only increased it.
If this was due to the curse-
She did not have time to continue her train of thought as her reflection smiled more widely and said, "Nope. This is real."
Catherine was dumbfounded as she looked at her reflection or whatever it was. She was screaming in her mind, "IT CAN SPEAK?!"
Suddenly the reflection jumped at her, and Catherine felt like her heart would stop as it was beating so fast. A surge of adrenaline surged through her body as she screamed at the top of her lungs.

Harry patiently looked at the woman, waiting for her to have some reaction. After waiting for a whole minute with no whatsoever movement from her, Harry began doubting that the injectable had failed or something.
He looked at John who was literally worried to the max and was holding himself back from grabbing the woman and shaking her a few times because he was afraid that it would disturb the knowledge parting 'experience'.
The other man who accompanied them both on the other hand was completely confused. What was happening here? Did Catherine fall asleep?
He was extremely worried when he stabbed her with something, and was going to pounce at him when John stopped him, and looking at Catherine who was completely unaffected by it and only stayed completely still, he restrained himself.
But after a few seconds passed, he began having doubts on whether the king had poisoned Catherine. She stayed absolutely still!
Just when Harry started becoming extremely worried and was going to ask the system for some sort of solution to wake her up from her trance, Catherine began screaming crazily.
She screamed at the top of her lungs, and Harry jumped like a cat that was jump scared.
Harry clutched at his heart which was beating rapidly.
'What the hell woman?! Why did she scream like she had just experienced a horrifying experience?! She nearly scared me to death!', Harry thought.
Catherine then began panting like she had just run a marathon at her top speed, and grabbed on to John who was next to her.contemporary romance
At that moment, she had various memories flashing though her mind and what should she describe it as? Experience. Yes that's the right word. She had various memories and experiences rapidly flashing through her mind, and she felt like she had just gained knowledge that would take years to accumulate in a flash.
