Ana's POV

Chapter 53

***

Have I been asleep?

The thought filled my sluggish mind with surprise, and I began swimming up from the depths of drowsiness, fighting the exhaustion that was swamping me.

My eyes opened slowly, and I started. There was a young man bending over me, a few feet away. I drew back a little, uncomfortable. What was he doing?

He looked familiar, somehow, but I had never seen him before.

I watched him puzzledly for a few moments, then smiled at him hesitantly. "Sorry, do I know you?"

His eyes widened and he drew away quickly, his expression twisting into one of anguish and agony. There seemed to be a few seconds of internal struggle before he replied hoarsely.

"No," he whispered softly, turning away.

"You don't."
