LEAH
The air feels wrong, heavy and cold. It's like something rotten is crawling through it. I’m still rooted to a spot as the voice calling my name grows louder and louder. “Leah… Leah… Come with us… Leah…”
My stomach flips at the distorted sound, bile rising in my tummy. It's like glass cracking underwater, annoying and eerie.
“Come with us… Leah…” I hear again. Nope, my mind answers, absolutely not.
Lucian’s roar tears through the chaos. “Run, Leah. Run!”
I feel his heartbeat through the bond hammering in my chest. He's angry, and scared at the same time. His feelings press on my mind, making me shiver. Because it doesn’t just feel like his pains and panic alone, it feels like mine too.
I try to run towards him, but I can’t. My legs just won’t move. My palms begin to burn brig
