Jaired chuckled. "Someone else, someone you know."

Brielle instinctively thought of King, realizing that Max's dual personalities were no secret within their circle.

"Don't you have someone to find?"

She turned to rush off but then a voice came from the bushes.

"Run."

Brielle froze in her tracks.
