Sophia's Ending (1)
Noises hovered around Aditi's ears, and she slowly opened her eyes, brows furrowed in annoyance as the chaotic footsteps she was hearing became even more obvious.
She immediately sat up straight, her eyes widening with fear as she heard murmurs along the corridor.
She was alone in the room—it was a guest room cleaned for her by Sophia's men. Everywhere was dark, and it was obvious there was a blackout.
What the heck is happening?
She stood up silently, her heart thundering in her chest like a storm as she made her way to the door.
Through the peephole, she saw nothing; it was the darkest part of the night.
Her first thought was to stay locked in the room, but nowhere seemed safe.
Pursing her lips, she twisted the doorknob with unease and once there was enough of a gap, she peeped out.
She could hear footsteps, but she couldn't see anything.
