79 In The Net

In the dark night, Demetri caught hold of Nora's hand and guided her forward. Nora, suddenly feeling fearful at what she would see, almost stumbled in the darkness and almost fell face first. As he pulled her up, she clung to her his hand, her fingers digging into his skin, leaving temporary marks like indentations of her fear. Her heart raced in synchrony with the anguished screams that echoed through the chilling darkness. She had no idea where they were headed, but the ominous aura of the place filled her with a deep, unsettling fear.

Whispering, because it seemed the right thing to do, she questioned him," Are you very sure you are trying to help me get rid of my fear and not making me more fearful?"

As they walked further, she felt that the path was steeping downwards and suddenly, they stopped outside a large carved rock shrouded in even more darkness. Suddenly, an opening appeared inside the rock, and she followed him with wide eyes.
