Anna's heart was racing as she stared at Ethan. She couldn't believe that her own brother was threatening her.
"What do you want from me?" Anna demanded, trying to keep her voice steady.
Ethan's smile grew wider, and he took a step closer to her. "You know, Anna, you've been a bit of a problem for me," he said.
Anna's eyes narrowed. "What are you talking about?"
Ethan chuckled. "You see, I've been watching you, Anna. I've been watching you for a long time."
Anna felt a chill run down her spine. "What do you mean?"
Ethan's eyes seemed to gleam with excitement. "I mean that I've been waiting for the perfect moment to reveal the truth to you," he said.
Anna's mind was racing. What truth could Ethan possibly be talking about?
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps echoed through the chamber. Ethan's head snapped towards the sound, and Anna saw a flicker of unease in his eyes.
"Ah, it seems our time is running out," Ethan said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
