Chapter 208: Mixed Signals.
Terrified from the strangling nightmare, Arissa was pulled back to reality with a strong seat up and a horrified small scream left her throat.
Her body trembled, and her head tore from a splitting headache. Her body tensed up also as sweat pumped heavily out of her.
The nightmare with Nicklaus kept on reoccurring like a normal event and each time it does reoccur, she sees nothing more than Nicklaus himself lying in the pool of his blood.
It was frightening and alarming.
She turned to her side and picked up the phone she kept beside her before dozing off. She had been waiting for Nicklaus to call which caused her to end up sleeping with her phone.
"10:45," she murmured seeing the time on her screen.
A sigh escaped her lips when she heard her stomach grumble loudly. She climbed down from the bed. Picking her hand towel from the vanity table, she dried her nightmare sweat before going out of the room. With a low sigh filled with anxiety, she stood before Nicklaus’s door.
"Why isn’t he yet back?" Arissa was concerned.
There was no sign someone was behind that door. She walked into the elevator and decided to wait for him in the living room. Waiting in her room would be a bad idea, she might just doze off again.
