Sylvia's POV:

It turned out that Richard had planned for this elaborately. He wanted to kill me and Rufus ' troops-but there was no way in hell I'd allow that to happen.

There was always a way out. I firmly believed that heaven would never seal off all the exits.

"What're you doing?" Peter wrung his hands anxiously. "Press the button already. That way, you might live. Do you think those people will be grateful to you for saving their lives by sacrificing yours? No! No one will know if you die here alone."

"I'm not pressing the button. Nothing you say will change my mind." I closed my eyes and tried to focus. I needed to calm down and rack my brains to find a way out.
