Chapter 53

-AMIERA

I take Catherine’s hand and pull her through the crowd, hoping to find a way for us both to escape. “How did this fire even start?” She asks in horror. I begin to cough as more smoke surrounds us. “I’m not sure, but we need to find a way to get out before it’s too late.”

I gasp when someone grabs me from around my waist and pulls me to their side. I’m surprised by the intense feelings that wash over me almost immediately. To my surprise, it’s none other than Adam. His eyes search my face as he continues to hold me tightly against him. My body feels a sense of calmness wash over it, and slowly, the fire begins to fade until there is nothing left of it anymore.

Catherine is gaping at us, and I have no idea why he’s holding me. I look around us one more time and am surprised to see that the fire is truly gone, completely.
