The sub-zero wind of the Arctic was gone, replaced by a terrifying, sterile silence."Caleb?" Ava reached out, her hand grasping at the air.He wasn't there. The man who had been her shadow, her protector, and her husband had vanished into the white.“Welcome to the Sector Prime,” the Sentinel’s voice resonated, but it no longer sounded like a machine. It sounded like her own voice, layered a thousand times. “To heal the Blood, the Heart must be weighed. The Miller Legacy is built on the sacrifice of others.
