Elodie’s POV
Azreal peeped into my room as he checked if I was asleep, I closed my eyes as the bedcovers covered my emotions. My heartbeat thunder as he shut the door allowing me to properly heave a breath of relief.
I waited till I couldn’t hear his footsteps again, then I walked briskly to the door of the bedroom, after setting and arranging my pillows properly on the bed to avoid being caught.
I opened the bedroom door. It creaked. I checked the passage to see if Azreal was still lurking around and to my greatest surprise— he wasn’t.
This was the best time to act fast, the best time to finally get a secret to use against this ruthless man, or maybe something to get me out of this place.
I walked towards the staircase, looking back. I continued strolling towards the staircase.
