Nyx took small breaths as she clutched the knife to her chest.
The hallways towards where the royal kitchen was usually dark but never too dark.
Now it felt like someone was behind her with every step she made.
Had someone found out she was a half-witch and half rogue or had Thea sold her out already,
They were probably here to capture her and kill her, she thought.
She made a sharp bend to the right even though she did not know where she was headed, she was sure someone was behind her so. she had to lose them.
It wasn't until she got to a dead end, she turned back with her chest rising more than it fell
“Show yourself!" She yelled as she flashed the knife "This is covered in a poison I'm sure you wouldn't survive from”
There was fear in her eyes but she clutched the knife tightly
