When His Eyes Opened (Avery and Elliott)

Then he grabbed Avery’s slender wrist and said, “I’m taking her with me.”

The captain simply nodded.

Once they were out of the station, Avery shook off Elliot’s slightly cold hand.

Elliot raised his brows as he stared at Avery’s defensive posture.

“Your mother wouldn’t come back to life even if you did kill Wanda, Avery. There are many ways to take revenge, yet you chose the most foolish one.”

“I can’t calm down!” Avery lashed out, her voice breaking. “My mom’s lifeless face appears in front of me every time I close my eyes! What did she do wrong?! She never did anything wrong! How could someone kill her?!”
