"Darius!" the words escape my mouth as I jolt up. Looking around, it dawns on me that I'm in my room, back at Celine's apartment building.
Was it all a dream?
Stepping out of bed, I rush out the room. In the living room, I find Celine, Kysilius and Caroline speaking, their expressions void.
I stand for a second too long, before letting the words out of my mouth.
"Where is Darius?" I ask, my voice breaking as I speak.
No one answers. Caroline lowers her gaze. Celine and Kysilius exchange glances. Then, she gets up, making her way toward me.
"Abigail..." she calls out to me, but I take a step back, my heart racing.
"Where is Darius?" I ask once more, afraid...afraid I know the answer.
It's not true, Kysilius got to him in time, he rescued Darius from his captors, he's out on a mission right now to take down Elias.
"Abigail..."
"Where is Darius!" I scream at the top of my lungs, stopping Celine in her tracks.
