ROSETTE
It was the sound of a helicopter’s blade that dragged me out of my restless sleep. It sounded too… foreign in this quiet island, and the first name that came to mind was Silas.
I thought why would he come here when we’ve never seen each other since the day he dropped me off? We haven't even talked, not once. So why would he be here? Did something happen? To Axel?
I jumped right off the bed, not bothering with a coat or shawl as I raced down the stairs, my bare foot slapping against the cold floor, my heart hammering against my chest and beating loudly in my ears, almost drowning out all other noise, but not enough to drown my spiraling thoughts.
Has something happened to Axel? Was he okay? Why did Silas want?
The househelps were also out, but they remained inside.
