Chapter 90

• Nicholas
• I drove straight home without uttering a word to Allan or Reyna. My mind at that time had frozen in time for a bit while my voice box got stuck. My body felt weak and drained, but I still managed to head straight upstairs in search of Eliana. My calls to her the entire drive went unanswered, while the recording remained wrapped in a brain freeze. I searched every single room, but there wasn't a single sign of her.
• "Nanny," I called her as I descended the stairs, my brain beginning to function as the reality of Eliana's absence began taking over. I wanted so much to believe that Gavin had used technology to fool me into thinking that it was her voice or that she had been manipulated.
