NovelEnglishTyrone studied her serene sleeping face, his expression serious and contemplative.
Taking a moment, he tidied up Sabrina's clothes and pulled the quilt over her. He lingered by her bedside, lost in thought, before leaving the room.
The next morning, Sabrina began to stir in her bed. Despite the early hour of 6 a.m., darkness still enveloped the outside world. Slowly rousing from her sleep, she opened her eyes, squinting in pain as she was met with an immediate pulsating throb in her head.
Shutting her eyes quickly, she lay in bed, resting for some time before mustering the energy to sit up again.
Sabrina tried to recall what happened the previous night.
But she couldn't remember anything.
Only vague, dream-like images of Tyrone flickered through her mind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSabrina looked down and realized that she was only wearing thermal underwear. She assumed that Aylin must have helped her change.
After splashing cold water on her face and brushing her teeth, she spent some time on her phone. About an hour had passed when she decided to give Bettie a call.
The phone rang out, but no one answered.
Then she dialed Aylin's number.
Still no response.
They must still be sleeping.
Given the amount of alcohol she had drunk the previous night and the lack of food, Sabrina felt hungry. She decided to head down to the hotel restaurant for breakfast.
When she stepped out of her room, she noticed a figure exiting the end of the hallway. It looked like Tyrone.
She froze and gasped, her heart racing. But when she looked again, he was gone.
Shaking her head, she wondered if she had imagined it.
"Maybe I'm still drunk." Sabrina brushed it off and went down to have breakfast.
When she finished, Bettie and Aylin got up.
Last night, they were supposed to hire a car and chase the aurora. However, their plan was derailed when they all got drunk instead.
Today, they were determined to carry out their plan.
The aurora was visible from both Shadowlake and Sagecoast.
After Bettie organized a car rental online, they checked out of the hotel and headed for Shadowlake.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShadowlake is located west of Marblewaled. The island experiences two months of Polar Night beginning in November and two months of Polar Day in May.
The Polar Night and Day are natural phenomena that occur inside the polar circles, where the sun remains either below or above the horizon for more than 24 hours.
Therefore, this island was called the island without time.
Due to it being a time-free zone, the locals would go to sleep according to their individual needs. So it wasn't unusual to see the townspeople having coffee with friends
on the beach at 2 a.m.
The island had a small population. It boasted many charming wooden houses that lined the coastline.
After an hour, they crossed a bridge and arrived at Shadowlake.
Despite the Polar Night, it felt more like dusk than the deep and dark nights of Mathias. The environment resembled an evening atmosphere with dim but visible light. Though the sun was absent, the landscape was not entirely shrouded in darkness.
Snow blanketed the island, creating a serene white expanse. They felt like they had entered a winter wonderland.
Everywhere they looked, they saw snow-capped mountains.
