Chapter 120: The Brink of Exposure

The corridor beyond the room seemed to stretch into infinity, each step reverberating against damp stone walls. Sierra’s breath came fast, shallow, her heart hammering so violently she was certain Damien could hear it.Her mother’s hand remained tightly in hers, grounding her, a fragile anchor in the storm that pressed in from every shadow. But even her mother’s calm could not quell the terror curling in Sierra’s chest.“They’re coming,” the man from the shadows murmured, voice low, urgent. “You don’t have much time.”Sierra’s stomach twisted. “Who’s coming?” she whispered.He shook his head slightly. “It doesn’t matter. What matters is that you get to safety. Now.”She glanced back toward the room. Damien had not moved, yet his presence was suffocating. Like a predator who didn’t need to strike to assert dominance, he simply existed, and that existence was enough to bend the world around her.Her mother’s voice broke through the tension. “Sierra… listen to me.

Chapter 121: Confronting the Storm

Sierra’s pulse thundered in her ears as the basement settled into an uneasy silence. The metallic click of the door closing behind them still reverberated in her chest, a chilling reminder that there was no escape. Every shadow seemed heavier now, every sound amplified, every breath a countdown.Her mother pressed a trembling hand to hers. “Stay close, Sierra.

Chapter 122: The First Truth

The basement felt colder now, the shadows heavier, as if the darkness itself had taken notice of them. Sierra’s chest throbbed, every nerve taut, her grip on her mother’s hand the only thing keeping her from panic.Damien stood at the far side of the room, calm, unhurried, as though he were orchestrating a symphony only he could hear. The green of his eyes gleamed in the dim light, and every instinct screamed that he knew far more than they could see.Sierra swallowed, forcing herself to breathe. Her mind raced, thinking through every warning her mother had whispered in preparation. She had trained herself to anticipate Damien, to read his moods, to stay one step ahead but she still didn’t understand him. Not truly.Her mother’s hand tightened around hers. “Sierra… focus. Whatever happens, listen carefully. Not everything he says is what it seems.”The woman from the shadows stepped slightly forward. “He’s going to reveal the first piece of the truth,” she murmured. “Brace yourself. I
