I don’t remember anything. I barely remember my name. But there is one name I can’t forget…

Luna.

My memories are vague and trying to remember them is like wading through mud. I don’t know what’s real and what my mind is attempting to cope with whatever the hell has happened over the course of hours. Days? Weeks?

I don’t even know what month it is.

I fight against this fucking fatigue and open my eyes. I have no idea where I am. It looks like an infirmary from the number of beds in the large room. But I’m the only person in here.

No surprise, I’m restrained to the bed.

“You’re awake.” I recognize the voice as Dr. Norton. “How are you feeling?”

“Like I’ve been slipped a Mickey,” I reply honestly. “And this comedown sucks ass.”

Dr. Norton sits beside me in the orange plastic seat and opens a notepad. “What’s the last thing you remember?”

That’s a good question because my brain is completely fried. I push aside the fog and cling onto the only solid memory I have—it’s when Luna pressed her ear to my chest and listened to this foreign bastard giving me life.

It was the only time I felt at peace and that this heart was mine.

“Are you still experiencing memories which you cannot recall?” Dr. Norton asks as if reading my mind.

“Honestly, Doc, at the moment, I’m not experiencing anything other than wanting to dig my brain out with an ice cream scoop.”

“What about your heart?”

“What about it?”

“Are you still feeling…ill at ease with it?”

I burst into laughter. “That’s a real nice way of putting it. But I guess the urge to cut the motherfucker from my chest has subsided a little.”

She writes something in her little book. “That’s good. That’s progress.”

“What the fuck happened?”

Dr. Norton clears her throat.

“Don’t give me some medical mumbo jumbo bullshit. I want the truth.”

She adjusts her glasses, but I think it’s merely nerves. “We were forced to sedate you because you made some very serious claims about certain staff members.”

I did?

I squeeze through the tiny tunnel of light in my mind and grasp on to any solid memory I can. It’s of me beating the shit out of three lowlife scumbags.

“Motherfucker,” I curse under my breath when I remember what happened in that tunnel. “Those claims are fact. Those assholes were abusing their power, and the only regret I have is that I didn’t kill those assholes when I got the chance.”

Dr. Norton gasps, and her cheeks turn a lovely shade of pink.

Taking a closer look at her, I realize she isn’t horrified by my words—no, she’s turned on.

“Why are you here, Alanna?” I ask, using her name for the first time. I’ve done so with intent because it’s evident her interest in me isn’t purely professional.

“You’re my patient—”

“Enough with the bullshit,” I interrupt firmly. “I’m in a fucking asylum. Pretty sure this is out of your jurisdiction. What gives?”

She takes a moment to compose herself. “You intrigue me,” she confesses, finally giving me the truth. “What you’ve described is happening to you…it can change medical history.
