Chapter 95

BLAIRE

As I sank into the seat of the car, my body trembled with residual fear, the adrenaline still coursing through my veins. My mind whirled with confusion, struggling to make sense of how I had ended up in such a harrowing situation.

Memories flashed through my mind like a nightmare, each image tinged with the same sense of terror that had gripped me moments before. What happened seemed like a surreal blur, a series of inexplicable twists and turns that had led me to this moment of desperate flight.

I tried to piece together everything that happened, but it felt like grasping at shadows, the threads of memory slipping through my fingers like sand. How had I become entangled in Grant’s web of violence and control? How did a kind and supportive man like Grant turn into a monster in just a snap?

Questions swirled in my mind, each one more confounding than the last. But amidst the confusion, one thing remained clear: I was grateful to be sitting in this car, safe from the danger that lurked behind me.

I was grateful that Sebastian remained silent throughout our journey. He didn’t push me to ask me what happened. He allowed me to absorb everything until I finally calmed down.

I glanced at him, feeling a warmth wash over me as I took in his concerned expression. Though his gaze remained focused on the road ahead, I sensed a depth of thought in his eyes that hinted at something more.

Despite the lingering tremors of fear that still gripped me, I realized I had almost overlooked expressing my gratitude for his presence in that crucial moment.

“T–thank you,” I finally uttered when somehow my nerves calmed down.

He remained silent. But I saw how his jaw clenched, trying to control his emotion. After a couple of minutes, I heard him blow a loud sigh.

“What happened?” he asked.

“To be honest, I’m not entirely sure. Grant was never violent. All those times that we stayed alone on that island, he never once forced himself on me. Not until…” I couldn’t manage to finish my sentence as I saw his hand tighten its grip on the steering wheel.
