Just as Evelyn sat there, reeling from everything, the door suddenly burst open with a loud bang, nearly making her jump out of the bed.
"Evelyn!" came Cece's frantic voice as she rushed into the room in a disheveled state, clearly having had little to no sleep. Her eyes scanned every inch of Eve.
"Are you hurt anywhere?"
Before Eve could say a word, Cece launched herself at her and pulled her into a bone-crushing hug, completely unaware of her vampiric strength, making Eve stifle a wince.
"I was so worried about you! I barely slept a wink! I was going to come last night, but Ivan told me to wait until morning!"
Suddenly, she paused and pulled back, inspecting Eve again. "Wait…he was here, right?"
