Chapter 15 - The Woman in the Basement

Amara's POV

I woke up in complete darkness.

My head felt like someone had hit it with a hammer. My mouth was dry and tasted like metal.

Where was I?

I tried to move, but my hands were tied behind my back. My legs were tied too. Panic shot through my body like electricity.

"Dad?" I called out. "Dad, are you here?"

Silence.

I was alone.

The last thing I remembered was seeing Sarah in the hospital room. But Sarah was supposed to be dead. Rebecca said she killed her.

So who did I really see?

My eyes started to adjust to the darkness. I was in a small room with concrete walls. It smelled like mold and fear.

A basement.

There was a tiny window near the ceiling, but it was covered with boards. Only thin lines of light came through the cracks.

I tried to wiggle out of the ropes, but they were too tight. They were cutting into my skin.

"Help!" I screamed as loud as I could. "Someone help me!"

No answer.

I heard footsteps above my head. Someone was walking around upstairs.
