Chapter 250

-Ava’s POV-

The moment my eyes snapped open, my hands flew to my stomach, instinct kicking in like a force of nature. As if cradling my belly could somehow protect the tiny lives growing inside me from whatever damage falling through an endless void might have done.

She gave me a look. “I don’t know. You’re highly connected to him. I was kind of banking on you instantly feeling him.”

I stared at her, my brain short–circuiting.

“You don’t have a clear plan?” I shouted, panic seeping into my voice as the howling grew impossibly loud, like it was coming from everywhere at once.

She turned to look at me, dead serious. “I have one right now.”

“Run.”
