Chapter 48 0048
- Niylah's POV
- The door of my room shut softly behind me, and I leaned against it for a second, taking a deep breath and attempting to steady myself after all that had just happened. My heart still raced, and I could feel the rush of adrenaline that ebbed away slowly, leaving a mixture of exhaustion and relief.
- I felt that now I could almost breathe easy, almost settle into the quiet of my room and think over what had taken place. Then the moment my gaze fell toward the middle of the room, I froze.
