It was a feeling Thora seldom felt. The major reason was the lack of any events that ever moved her.
The last time her heart had pounded this fast was during her childhood, when she watched her mother die right in front of her.
Her mother had hidden her inside a compartment in her room, with one order; do not to come out, no matter what you witness.
That night, Thora had obeyed and, as a result, found her heart pounding for the first time in her life.
After then, even on the run, her life had been devoid of any thrill.
Except tonight.
'Who the hell is this boy…' Thora clutched her chest tightly, feeling the rapid beat of her heart slamming against her rib cage.
The world had ceased to know sound.
