Chapter 33

• ISLA
• We’ve been at the cabin for three days. At first, I wanted to run fast and far, but that didn’t last long. Bryce is kind, thoughtful, and considerate. Unlike the previous men in my life, he’s made no demands of me—quite the opposite. I’m not used to someone asking me what I think or feel. But I can’t get the image of what he did to that guy in his apartment out of my head. It’s as if he has two sides, one sweet and caring and the other completely deranged.
• “You still with me, Isla?” Bryce’s voice breaks across my thoughts and brings me back to the here and now.
