"Ava, we really need to talk," he stated in a stern tone.Knowing that nothing he said would ease my day in the slightest, I sighed.

CIARA'S POVSheila, the young girl confined to the cell across from me, could not stop humming. Her song rang around the dark cage, providing a peculiar sort of solace in the face of all the uncertainty. How long had we been imprisoned here, cut off from the outer world? I wondered incessantly. Ava had not yet determined our destiny, so we were in the dark.Sheila was quiet today, which surprised me as we had become friendly because we would only have each other to talk to until we were let free."I wonder if they'll ever let us out," I said, a hint of resignation in my voice. "We will just have to wait and hope for the best, right?"Sheila continued to hum while staring at the chilly stone floor. She continued to hum in tune, seemingly unaffected by anything, and then c

NOAH'S POVBefore I even opened my eyes, I smelled the metallic tang of blood; the smell was strong and filled my senses with a dreadful urgency. My body felt like lead, my head pounded with every heartbeat, and I was throbbing with sickness, yet the smell woke me up. Something was not right. The sickness had dimmed my senses, but there was something unique about the scent. The smell, that indisputable scent, lifted me out of the fog of misery even though the illness was weighing me down. It was the blood of Ciara.A few guards stormed into my cell, their hefty boots thumping the cold ground. Then they hauled her limp body into my dark prison.
