Chapter 472

Vespera's heart was pounding. In the span of a breath, all the warmth and sleepiness that had wrapped around her vanished. A creeping dread replaced everything.

On the television, a variety show continued playing. The celebrities were playing games and laughing. But down on the carpet, where Vespera's phone had fallen, it felt like something dark and rotten was lurking.

Vespera sat frozen for a solid minute. Then, she took a deep breath and picked up her phone. Her pulse was racing so loudly it felt like it was echoing in her skull. Still, she unlocked her phone again.
