“I finally found you…”
The Vile Creature reached out its bony hands in Luna's direction, making her scream in fright.
The next second, she found herself inside her room, gasping for breath and drenched with sweat.
“A dream?” Luna placed her right hand over her chest to calm her wildly beating heart. “No… a nightmare.”
It took her a few minutes to regain her composure. When she finally regained the ability to think properly, she walked towards the table beside her bed and poured herself a glass of water.
The hands holding the jug were shaking a bit, so it took her a while to fill the glass properly.
Her hands were still shaking when she held the glass of water. It took her great effort to drink a few sips and only managed to finish the entire glass after a few minutes.
Even after drinking the water, she still felt restless and feared going to bed to sleep again.
