24. Night of the Scream

The night was still, the palace shrouded in darkness, with only the occasional flicker of torchlight illuminating the stone corridors. Silence reigned, a calm that had settled over the kingdom like a blanket—until it was shattered by a piercing scream that echoed through the halls.

Abhirath bolted upright in bed, his heart pounding in his chest. He exchanged a quick glance with Vedanti, whose eyes were wide with alarm. Without a word, they both hurried to the source of the scream, their steps echoing in the silent palace as they rushed through the corridors.
