Sami couldn't move.
Those eyes…
They were staring straight into his soul.
Unblinking.
Unnatural.
A low sound echoed in the darkness.
Not a voice.
Not a growl.
Something worse.
Something… ancient.
Sami tried to scream.
Nothing came out.
His throat was dry.
Frozen.
The shadow moved.
Closer.
Slowly dragging itself across the floor.
Like it was crawling toward him.
The air became heavier.
Harder to breathe.
"Sami…"
The whisper returned.
This time closer.
Right next to his ear.
A cold hand touched his shoulder.
Sami's body shook violently.
His mind screamed:
"RUN!"
But his body refused.
The eyes… were everywhere now.
Watching.
Surrounding him.
Closing in.
And then—
Darkness swallowed everything.
