Her brows furrowed in concern, her gaze piercing as she waited for me to explain the look of shock and worry that had frozen on my face. My lips quivered as I fumbled for words. I was unable to come up with a response and this made her even more curious.

Crossing her arms, she pouted her lips and raised an eyebrow..

    Author's POV~The scent of mold and mildew lingered in the air with dampness seeping into every corner of the vast empty space. Scarlett's eyelids fluttered open, and she was met with an unfamiliar ceiling. Groggily, she sat up, taking in her surroundings, her brows furrowing slightly. The smell of rust and metal hung in the air, a metallic scent that seemed to cling to the back of her throat.Rays of sunlight streamed through the open space in the curtain and she noticed dust and dirt that coated every surface dance in the faint light..The silence was sharp, stiffening and suffocating, and her throat felt parched and dry.She was in a small, dingy room with peeling wallpaper and a single, flickering light bulb hanging from the ceiling. Her eyes narrowed as she scanned the entire place. It looked like an abandoned warehouse.

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 89. HELP

    Author's POV~The morning sun filtered through the room, illuminating the dust particles in the air. The sky was painted with hues of pink and orange and the day was perfect for an outdoor adventure. The beeping sound of the alarm pierced the silence, forcing Ethan to sit up in his bed and rub the sleep from his eyes. He narrowed his eyes, and squinted, trying to adjust to the bright light. After yawning, he swung his legs to the other side and planted a firm foot on the ground.His brows furrowed as he scanned the room frantically and that was when he realised he was alone in their vast bedroom.The bed was a mess on his side, with sheets tangled and pillows askew, a testament to a restless night's sleep.

Her space was empty, an unoccupied space that was noticeable.Ethan slid his fingers into his hair and began pacing

    Author's POV~>>As the driver took the wrong route, Scarlett felt nervous, panic creeping in with her conscience at high alert. Beads of sweat trickled down her spine, her heart rate intensifying as she gazed into the driver's piercing eyes through the rearview mirror.

She fiddled with her trembling fingers, knowing full well that he was up to something sinister and she had taken the wrong cab. At this moment, she wished she had just accepted Alaric's offer. If she were with him in his car, she'd be rest assured, knowing he'd drop her off at her mansion unlike being in a stranger's cab where she wouldn't have a clue who was behind the wheels.Her safety was more important than some gossip or speculation about her personal life.
