In the blissful moonlight Lucia slept wearily, not wanting to move a muscle. Her deep slumber was disturbed by a sudden shrill screeching noise that filled the room.
She covered her ears with the pillow but it still continued. Hoping it's just a dream she didn't responded but then the noise of a light tapping on the glass came...
Getting louder and louder by each passing second.
Her eyes shot open in fear. She tried to keep her breathing steady and remained clear of her surroundings. Rubbing her dry eyes, she narrowed her eyes at the windows.
With nothing but moonlight entering through the translucent window, she adjusted her gaze in the dark. Slowly sitting up, trying her best not to make any loud noise, she got off the creaking bed.
The tapping no longer producing the maddening sound, she shifted the curtains slowly. Her heart beat becoming rapid, she finally looked outside!
But no one was there...
