Chapter SEVENTY- SIX

FIRST TIME  YRENE'S POV. My heart was beating too fast, and it felt like I was going to explode. Apart from the light of the moon, there was no other source of light.  Then I screamed. I screamed as loud as I could, hoping someone would hear me, and magically come to my rescue in the next second. My eyes were tightly closed, and my hands were over my ears, trying not to see, hear, or feel anything. But it was hard. I heard feet rushing, and I sat there on the floor with my body shaking visibly.  “Are you okay?” A rather soft voice asked me. A gentle hand alighted on my shoulder, and I looked up. It was a man.  When he saw my face, he stopped, and the look in his eyes went soft. He had smooth, red hair that fell over his face on his right. His eyes were a warm brown, and his lips were heart-shaped.  He looked like he had jumped out from a book.  “Are you okay?” He asked, after snapping himself back to reality, and I blinked.  “I… Yes.” “Why did you scream?” He asked, and I looked back.
