KILLER
I collapsed, surrendering to the void.
"I woke up in an unfamiliar room, lying on a king-sized bed beneath heavy, dark sheets. My head throbbed with a dull ache, but the sharp pang of unease jolted me fully awake. Beside me, perched on the edge of the bed, was a young woman. Her chestnut hair spilled over her shoulders, framing a face with soft, doe-brown eyes, full lips, and thick brows that gave her an intense, watchful look. She couldn't have been more than in her twenties, yet something about her gaze seemed older, knowing. I jerked upright, instinctively putting some distance between us, my pulse racing."
