Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Kate appeared out of nowhere when I couldn't grasp what Claude was saying.

"Claude!" She jogged over and threw herself into Claude's arms, her shoulders shaking as she cried.

"Why are you here by yourself so late at night?" asked Claude.

Claude had just seen her home, yet Kate showed up alone, which made Claude furrow his brow as he gently stroked her hair. Kate sobbed. "A friend rang me up saying you were down at the bar and in big trouble, so I got concerned and rushed over." Suddenly, Claude turned serious and looked at Kate. "Kate, is there something you're not telling me?"

Caught off guard, Kate shook her shoulders, unable to speak, only to cry.

"Kate, you can tell me. I'm here to help," Claude said, kissing her forehead tenderly.

Kate managed to calm her tears and said, "Claude, the Scar Men, and his men, I saw them when Claire and I were hiking. I'm thinking, could they be the same ones behind my kidnapping? Maybe they were following me for revenge because their buddies are dead, and I survived."

Claude's brow furrowed. "Does anyone else know about this?"

Kate shook her head. "No, I've been too scared to say anything. I fear retaliation."

Claude sighed and looked toward the fiery ruins, "Well, their deaths aren't innocent then. With them gone, you won't have to live in fear anymore."
