Scarlett’s POV

The building’s structure is like a hotel. The elevator is designed in the center, with two lines of small rooms going around it. We were in one of the rooms on the inner lines, and the light we saw came through the room on the outer circle.

I didn’t know this until Liam Ryan dragged both Ava and me out of the room, through a pitch–dark hallway, to a huge hole in the center of the building.

The half–built elevator shaft is like the enormous mouth of a monster lurking in the dark, waiting for us to drop in.

The back of our chairs are inches away from the edge. I dare not to move, turn, or even peek at the abyss behind me, and I’m already getting dizzy from acrophobia.
