*Rion*
Every nerve in my body seemed to be screaming out with rage and grief. I had known in my heart that my mother had died a terrible death, but I couldn’t have imagined what Daphne was telling me. As she spoke, flashes of my memory were appearing in my mind.
They weren’t painful this time, just jarring as I saw my sister’s toddler face in my head, her large eyes filled with tears as she gripped me. That was quickly followed by the terrified but beautiful face of my mother as she yelled something at me.
I knew now that she had been telling me to take Eva and run.
“What are we going to do?” I whispered, looking down and feeling completely lost.
Daphne wasn’t doing much better. My heart broke for her. Her ability, although extremely powerful, was a curse of sorts. She had seen my dreams and now she was suffering because of them. Her thin arms were wrapped around her as if she was trying to shield herself from the pain that was stirring inside of her.
