Enzo

I watched as Ronan lay there, his breathing shallow and labored. I knew he was dying, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief. Ronan was cruel and utterly insane for what he did. But then Nina stepped forward, her medical skills kicking in as she tried to keep Ronan alive. Her kindness and compassion for someone who had caused so much pain and suffering was truly admirable. It made me love her even more.

“Call for help,” she ordered as she pressed her shirt into Ronan’s wound to put pressure on it and stop the bleeding. “I won’t lose two lives tonight.”

“Two lives?” I asked, but Nina was too busy tending to Ronan to hear me.

I pulled out my phone and called Lewis, hoping he could come and take Ronan away before it was too late. Nina worked tirelessly to keep Ronan alive; her healing abilities seemed far superior to that of a human, medical school or no medical school. Something was extraordinary about her.

“Go to the ravine a little ways that way,” she said, gesturing with her

head. “I found the stalker… She fell.”

My eyes widened. I wanted to ask more, but I saw the tears in Nina’s eyes and knew that something horrible happened that she likely wouldn’t want to talk about just yet, if ever.

Nina stayed behind to tend to Ronan, while I went out in search of the stalker. It didn’t take me long to find her, thanks to my ability to see in the dark; her lifeless body lay at the bottom of the ravine. Her neck had clearly been broken from the wall.

Why was my father’s assistant the one that was stalking Nina? I couldn’t wrap my head around it just yet, but I knew now that he had something to do with it. I soberly collected her broken body and headed back to where Nina was waiting for me with Ronan; Lewis was already there when I arrived.
