My ears picked up the sound of floorboards creaking.
Before light footsteps climbed the stairs to the room. The old rusty door opened with a creepy noise.
I couldn't smell his scent but I could tell it was not Darius. Then who else?
Fear lice in my body. And my mind temporarily shut down my system in the name of saving.
My brain panicked. My body was paralyzed. My voice stuck in my throat.
Phone merely a minute no action was made by the intruder as if he was assessing the room before taking further actions.
And then he marched towards the middle of the room where I was lying on the bed.
My mattress sank from the new weight before a body pressed into my back.
As the moment of surprise wore off and my mind recognized the touch. A breath of relief left my mouth and my hyper senses got back to normal.
It was him.
