Chapter 9
A strange silence befell me as I left Ayra outside. The single fell heavily around me as I entered the marbled structure. My footsteps echoed through the building as I ventured deeper into the temple. Rows of archways domed up on both sides of the empty hall.
“Sian?” I called, wondering where they had gone. From the outside, I could never even have guessed there would be a hall in here, let alone multiple halls.
“Dev?” A weird shiver ran down my spine and I quickly turned. “Hello?”
My voice filled the void and I was almost certain I was being watched. But by who? If Sian and Devon were playing games, it wasn’t funny. A prickling sensation stung the back of my head and I checked around me again. Devon and Sian were supposed to be in here, but why couldn’t I find them?
“Eesh.”
