~Elvira~ Every time I closed my eyes, I saw that red handprint on Lisa’s face. She had saved me, and I had repaid her by letting a monster in the person of Vanessa drag her to a cell in an unfamiliar environment. She must be so scared and confused and i felt terribly guilty about it. "Elvira, slow down!" Noella called out, her boots clicking rapidly behind me. "We need to find Cole. If we go to him first, he can intercept the guards before they officially log her into the system." I stopped in the middle of the corridor, my chest heaving. My mind was in a war zone. Part of me wanted to find Cole—the man who actually treated me like a person. But another part of me, the part controlled by the restless, growling wolf in the back of my mind, knew that Cole wasn't the one in charge.
