Abel rushed in only to see the shadow vanish from the window.

"Seal the hospital!" He roared. "Catch that damn woman!"

He was going to the utility room to check for himself whether or not the woman was Emmeline!

The group raced after him.

Alana's expression was one of grim satisfaction. You're done for this time, Emmeline!

Abel unlocked the door of the utility room when they reached the dimly lit backyard.

He flicked on the switch only to find Emmeline curled up on a tattered couch sleeping soundly.

It was as if her gaze was pulling him in. He unexpectedly reached out to her and held the petite woman in his arms.

Her demure frame and familiar scent began to dredge up lost memories. Zeke suddenly felt that this woman had been in his arms before!
