Chapter 55 The Girl In The Tower

• *Roxy*
• I settle into bed, my comfy mattress soft beneath me. The tower feels colder at night, even with the thick stone walls holding the chill at bay. I pull my blanket closer, but it barely wards off the shiver crawling down my spine.
• The silence is too heavy. I should be used to it by now, but tonight, the stillness presses on me. Shadows pool on the stone floor, stretching long and dark beneath the faint moonlight streaking in through the window.
