Alessia's POV
I turned off the television. The channels were boring. I had scrolled from one channel to another and even the cartoons didn't make me feel happy.
Giving up, I sat on the bed in my night robe. The air conditioner hummed, making me glance up.
You saved him. You shouldn't have.
All I had was my mind judging for hours on how stupid my decision had been. I accepted my fate and groaned.
I reached for my purse on the right side of my bed and opened it.
My feet touched the carpet. They were also cold. I needed something warm. Without another moment to waste, I picked up the air conditioning remote and lowered the temperature.
That felt way better. I returned my attention to the purse and pulled out the burner phone.
I turned it on, and waited for any message to come in.
Then it came. From a familiar number. Only one body was found. The second grave is empty.
That didn't sit well. How could only one body be found? I had seen them die. There should have been two filled graves.
