Lucien's POV
I couldn't sleep the whole night.
My mind was spinning with everything Seraphina had said. No matter how much I tried to believe it, I couldn't get myself to take it all as real.
Her words were hard to believe. It wasn't because I didn't want to believe her, but because they sounded impossible and unreal.
It all seemed as if they came from the trauma after what she had been through all this time.
But I had to know the truth.
And the only way to do that was to see it for myself. That room she had mentioned. Room 402. If it really existed… if she was ever kept there, then I'd find it no matter what.
And then there were other things too.
The mysterious man she mentioned at the mall! Who the hell was he? What did he say or do that left her that shaken? She didn't give me details, but whatever it was… it made her lose composure, and she collapsed.
That day, she trembled like she was reliving something far worse than anything she'd told me.
