o many secrets. So many lies. How would I ever able to discover the truth?
If I opened my eyes, just for a moment, would I wake up?
I was surrounded by white. The smell of bleach and insanity made my nose burn.
I was trapped and I knew it. There was no escape. No running free.
Rosie had been right. I was alone.
Everyone was gone.
And I had no one to blame but myself.
Poor, poor Nora Gilbert.
Ugly, horrible Nora Gilbert.
The lost girl.
The forgotten girl.
The one no one would ever, ever miss.
But I had time to make it right.
I had a chance to turn things around.
I thought of Maren. Beautiful, loving Maren.
I thought of Bradley. Bleeding, brutal Bradley.
And I thought of Mother. Her hate. Her dishonesty. I loved her for it. Even if she could never love me in return.
These people were my world. I would hold onto them no matter what. I would keep them close.
Because Rosie was wrong. I wasn’t alone.
I never would be.
I had made sure of that.
To be continued . . .
Don’t miss the final installment of The Missing series-
Volume III- Truth
Coming Soon!
I am shattered glass.
Thousands of tiny, sharp pieces smashed under foot.
He
has sliced and shredded.
She
has broken and ruined.
Yet here I stand.
Locked away in this place that has become my world.
What was once lost is now found. What was finished is only the beginning.
And in these final hours everything I thought I knew goes up in flames.
And I’m happy to see it burn . . .
