I LIE AWAKE, half expecting Rebecca or Macy or someone else to burst through the door to tie me up. If Gavin wants to stop me, thatâs all he has to do. I touch the spot in my neck where the last syringe stuck me, imagining it again. Gavin just has to tell them, and itâs all over. He knows if I get close to Impetus again, I wonât stop. Iâll go there.
But he also knows, like I do, that if Revival discovers my intentions, Iâll be severely punished. I doubt theyâd keep me around. Not after everything theyâve taught me. Iâm too knowledgeable about their practices now. Thatâs the risk that has emerged on both sides. Gavin sees it too. He promised he would protect me, and I donât doubt that. Despite everything weâve been through, I know he keeps his promises. And I know deep down, itâs the reason he still holds things back from me. His central motivation is protecting me. The waters just got murkier than anyone could have predicted along the way.
Even though that makes me want to soften toward him, I canât. This is life weâre talking about. I would give mine if it meant saving others. If he knew anything about me, heâd realize that.
I just need more help. I canât do it alone. I tried that last time I went back to Impetus, and learned the dangers. I have to motivate my Rebirth people to back me. And maybe, if we can indeed tap into intuition or precognition, we can remain two steps ahead of Revival.
Crawling out of bed, I tiptoe to the door as if people are listening to my movements. I pull on the edge of my paper, lifting the entire document out from behind the baseboard. I hide the map in my pants against my stomach. The paper is cool and scratchy, but itâs the best place for me to conceal it until I arrive at Rebirth. Iâll have to forgo my last hot shower, but this is more important. Iâm sure my bag will be scanned and checked prior to leaving. This map cannot be confiscated.
I canât believe Iâm seeing Marlena, Liam, and everyone else soon. I wonder what theyâve thought about me being gone. If theyâve been searching for me. Itâs only been a few weeks since they took me, but so much has shifted since then that a part of me fears what itâll feel like returning.
