ARIANA'S POV
I was back to Drake Phillip's mansion, and I sat in my room, feeling down. How did I manage to get into this trouble? It's just as that lady said to me that I would end up in a battle ground between both of them, and I would be like the grass that suffers when elephants fight.
Recalling that, I decided to go to the basement and ask a few questions. I stood up from the bed, and walked out of the room. I looked left and right in the hallway, and tiptoed out of the hallway.
On getting to the sitting room, I looked around to be certain there was no one lurking around anywhere. I knew it was because I was about to do something which could cost me my life, or make Drake Phillip torture me, that I was carefully walking.
As soon as I got to the stairs leading to the basement, it felt as if a huge rock was dropped in my heart. I felt like my blood became cold.
"You can do this, Ariana." I muttered under my breath.
