With her mother's passing and nowhere left to turn she has little choice but to run. When the one who is supposed to protect her is the one who will see her dead, who can she trust? How long can she survive on her own?Complete

He presses his forehead against mine while his hands stay balled up against the wall above me. "Say it Joslyn..please." "We shouldn't be in this position...you have to-" "Joslyn." he whispers. His voice is filled with something I can't quite place. "Someone might see us." I whisper.
