Chapter 149

• Martina awoke to the soft light of dawn filtering through the curtains, casting a gentle glow across her room. She stretched, feeling the stiffness in her muscles from the previous night's tension. As she rolled over, a knock on her door broke the morning silence.
• "Martina, are you awake?" Camila called from the other side. She opened the door slightly and stared inside to be certain.
• Martina frowned, glancing at the clock. It was barely seven in the morning. She was hoping to get more sleep. "Well, I am awake now." She said sleep still evident in her voice.
