It was no wonder Wemble asked–Aubrey was indifferent to most people, and those she deemed unimportant rarely stayed in her memory. But the name Lily Lane struck a chord. Lily was the classmate who had once been dragged down because of her, the one Aurelia had humiliated.

And now, less than thirty hours after Aubrey had confided in him, Wemble had found her…

Because of that ball, Lily had been implicated, scolded by Aurelia, and later pushed out of school altogether by Aurelia and Bailey, simply because they didn’t want Aubrey to have a friend.

But what mattered more was that in her previous life, she had seen Lily again—inside the Level Four virus lab.

Lily had been infected with the Lupine Virus and captured for live experiments. She had been terrified, but upon recognizing Aubrey, she had tried every way she could to protect her, even helping her escape. The cost of that help was Lily’s life.

When caught, Lily was dragged away and dissected alive, while Aubrey, deemed too valuable, was spared execution and forced to endure endless drug trials instead.

Even now, Aubrey could still feel the warmth of Lily’s hand gripping hers in those final moments–one of the few real sources of comfort in her darkest years.
