Capítulo 68: Part 3: Chapter 68: Help comes from the Lord

Relaxing with a book, Sonia had found in the pub, the first book in a while, a loud explosion broke the silence. Sonia scrambled out of bed and stood outside as soldiers rushed past her. Walking to the corner of her building she noticed Doug and called him.

"There was an explosion at one of the gas lines and we have to check it out. You stay here, Ma'am, and sleep."

"You will let me know if you need help?"

"Yes, Ma'am, go to bed," and he jogged away.

She stretched and got into her bed, crunched the pillow under her and fell asleep.

Suddenly a weight pressed on her. Startled she opened her eyes to feel a warm breath against her face. She could see nothing in the darkness, the sliver of moonlight not enough to identify her attacker. Pushing with all her might the man laughed wickedly. Recognition shot through her and fear captured her breath. The sound from him, ice cold. She shivered uncontrollably.
