"You consume me, Audra," He said as he took a step closer to me. Suddenly, the chair between us didn't feel like it offered me any protection.
"Every waking second," he continued, "you're all I think about" he ripped the chair between us with solid hands. All I had to do was close the space between us. Aarav was right there.
"Please, I will bare my soul to you if you demand it. Just free me from this torture" his voice went soft, as did my heart. 
All I wanted was to be free. To love him was to give that up.

Audra always felt out of place in her life. Why was everyone so at peace when she was in a constant state of wonder? What's out there? She couldn't help but feel something was waiting for her. With the help of three strangers, she discovers all that her heart desires, and her soul will be ripped in two because of it.
