‘No, I’m not hallucinating. It doesn’t feel like it. The voice is real.’ As soon these thoughts register in Elizabeth’s mind, her heart almost pops out of her chest.

It takes a while before she’s able to recover from the shock and turn her head swiftly in the direction the voice is coming from.

Elizabeth’s eyes land on the one person she dreads to see right now. Ethan.

Ethan Moore.

‘How did he get here? I’m doomed!’ Different thoughts rush through her head at once.
