Blood and Breath

ROWAN’S POV

(PRESENT)

The sound rips out of me before I’m fully conscious, raw and animalistic and absolutely terrified.

The room is wrong, unfamiliar walls, unfamiliar ceiling, unfamiliar everything, and for one horrible moment I don’t know where I am or how I got here.

My hands fly to my chest expecting to find torn flesh, expecting to find the wound that killed me, but there’s nothing there.
