Evelyn POV
Ryland moves Amara to the couch, placing her down gently just as Thaddeus walks back in with Orion. Imogen, Ryland, and I look at Thaddeus and my heart skips a beat as I remember Amara’s words.
Thaddeus notices his sister on the couch and rushes over. “What happened?” he asks, looking at his mother.
Imogen stares at her son with fearful eyes, her eyes darting to me, but Ryland is the one that answers. “Nothing happened; she just passed out,” he says.
I can tell Thaddeus knows he is lying. “What did she see?” he demands, looking at me, but I have gone completely mute; I can’t even form a word. How can one person destroy the world?
Amara groans and her hand goes to her head like she has a bad headache. Her eyes are back to normal as they flicker to everyone staring at her.
