The air grows colder with each step, sending a chill down our spines that has nothing to do with the temperature. Suddenly, a low rumble echoes through the chamber, causing the walls to tremble and dust to rain down from above. A sense of unease settles over us as we exchange wary glances, preparing ourselves for whatever lays ahead.

The creature's hiss and snarl, their eyes glowing with a malevolent light as they advance menacingly towards us.

Dissipate in the air, the dense, heavy grievance of the dead people. The temperature dropped further, enough to see you your breath, that you couldn't help but shuddered in response. The chill you felt then developed into goosebumps. The hairs on your body stood in alertness. Shivers slowly raked down your spine. Discomfort, anxiety, and trepidation, all these emotions blended together, created a terrible synergy. Someone said silence is golden.

I tell her as a sinister sensation creeps over me, sending shivers down my spine. “That's good, Arnica, because you should be scared. Petrified.”

The eerie impression made the hairs on my body rise, and a shuddery sensation flowed down on my spinal cord. I bit my inner cheeks, trying to calm myself.

Fear paralyzes me, my hands shake, fear crawls down my spine like an icy spider and shoots through me, soaking into all my blood vessels. I forget to breathe, I had escaped this man, what is he doing here, my brain goes into overdrive as I try to come back to reality, his hand tightens on my arms and my legs wobble, I feel as if someone had drenched me with very cold water, my scalp prickles and I realize that I'm swaying, I might pass out.

“Are you ready?” A shiver moved down her spine and she nodded her head, not looking up at me. Running my palm down the back of her spine, I watched her shiver to hold herself still. I knew that if I looked at her, her teeth would be digging into her lower lip as she tried to fight down a moan. It was silly, she’d come to learn that I wanted every sound.
