Evelyn’s POVThe constant beep of the monitor slowly drew me to consciousness. I tried to open my eyes, but winced at the brightness in the room.The muscle in my back and shoulders ached with a deep, throbbing pain that made it almost impossible to move. I shifted and a sting flared across my collarbone. I frowned and touched it, it had three thin scratches and I was bleeding from it. I couldn't remember getting hurt.
