ALEXI“What are you hiding?” I narrowed my eyes at her.She blinked rapidly, caught off guard. She was playing innocent. Too bad I’m not going to fall for it.“You’re planning something in that pretty little head of yours, aren’t you?” my voice came out icy.“I’m...I’m not-” she blurted out ‘sincerely’ but the next second she flung the key right across the room. It crashed on the wall at the farthest end and dropped to the floor.Before I could guess her next move, Mikayla grabbed a pillow from the collection and chucked them at me one by one. The first one took me by surprise and smacked me square in the face but I was able to deflect the next two.“What is the matter with you?” I hollered, my tone deadly. Paying no heed to me, the girl jumped off the bed and ran straight for the door.She was escaping, not aware of the death traps that lurked on the other side.
