"Ah!"
Annabelle jolted awake, her eyes opening abruptly as she instinctively turned to her left. Ariana was awake as well, sitting quietly in a chair beside the bed.
They had brought another bed into the room recently. Neither of them had found it particularly comfortable sharing the same bed without Adrian, especially when his absence left the other side feeling unbearably empty.
However, that wasn't what concerned them at the moment.
"Did something happen?" Annabelle asked, looking at her.
Ariana shook her head. "I don't know... I just felt my heart beating a little too fast."
Annabelle instinctively placed a hand against her chest, as though checking whether she was experiencing the same thing.
"Same here... Do you think something is about to happen?"
Ariana shrugged. "I already checked the security arrangements and asked Janet. Everything appears to be fine."
