“Luke!”

He felt a slap across his face.

And when his eyes opened, he jerked.

It was the same. The exact fucking same…

He screamed.

Chapter Fourteen

“Here,” Mori said, handing Cadell a cup of water.

He took the cup with shaky hands and sipped it, but he didn’t seem even to see her standing there.

He was locked within his head.

She should have run, bolted while he was disoriented. She could have. Easily. Gotten away from the legendary Butcher of P-Extinction. Because if he could do all the things he did to full powered Metas, what would he do to her?

Where could she go?

The Complex was run by Climintra. If she went to them for help, she’d be at the mercy of someone else, wondering if they would betray her to the Intra officer like before.

And she couldn’t leave the Complex.

Not for just over two years.

A lot of things could happen to a being in two years.

No, she had to figure this out. Perhaps if she could somehow turn his loyalties to her, then there had to be a way to save the woman in her vision.

At least that vision could be sorted.

Cadell sat the cup on the table next to him, but he still didn’t seem quite at the moment yet.

She knew exactly what he’d seen because she’d seen it too. When she’d rolled him over, it seemed to deepen him into the nightmare he had been reliving. Why she’d seen it, she wasn’t sure.

Except she should have anticipated it. Fate worked in strange ways, and even though she never expected to see him again, it should not have surprised her. Here was the last place she would have considered stumbling into him.

But where else would she be surrounded by Humans with no opportunity to escape?

With everything that happened, she had almost forgotten about bumping into him in the common area. There had been a spark of something.

He’d felt it too, for he’d stared at her as well as they parted. This though, it was more than just the recognition.

Sharing memories?

That was unexpected.

While he was still in shock, she picked up her sticks and twisted them back into her hair. She wasn’t sure what she should do. Part of her wanted to run, to get away from him as fast as she could. And that side was quite logical, and it would be a good tactical move.

However, she couldn’t bring herself to leave. After the shared vision, he would likely have questions.

And he could be her only ally in this.

But were they questions she wanted to answer?

As if he‘d read her mind--and perhaps he had--he met her gaze, his eyes bright.

“What are you?” he asked, his stare pinning her where she stood.

“A Valkyrie. You know this.” She put her hands on her hips.

“Wings.” He waved his hand.

Her shoulders slumped. “They’re gone.”

“Why?”

She sighed. “I made a choice.”

It only took a moment for the remnants of the soldier’s expression to change, and understanding passed over his face.

“Was I that choice?”

She opened her mouth to answer when there was a chime.
