Chapter 24: Now sign your resignation

Aiden swiftly stood up and lifted the bucket he had with him filled with water, he could still see the ice cubes floating in it and with an evil smile he poured it all on Amara.

Amara jolted awake, coughing loudly. Her nose burning from some water going in there. She was shivering and confused.

‘What just happened’, she thought. She realized that she was completely drenched. Her hair was sticking to her face and her night wear was clinging to her body like a second skin. Her coughing ceased down and she tried to control her ragged breathing but she was trembling from the cold so badly.

She noticed a silhouette on her right. Focusing her eyes on it she realized it was Aiden with a smug smile on his face. Looking down she noticed the bucket in his hands.

Amara glared at him and exclaimed, “What the hell! What did you do that for?”

"You wouldn't wake up so I had to do something." Aiden shrugged carelessly.

“Did you even try to wake me up?” Amara demanded.
