章 24: CONFRONTING THE PAST DEMON

VIVIAN'S POV

What lay before my eyes left me speechless. I couldn't find the words to describe it. Why now, of all times? Just when I had made up my mind to put the past behind me, this monstrous spectre from my past had reemerged.

My initial instinct was to retreat, to slip away unnoticed. But something inside me held me back. It was time to confront the demons that had haunted me for the past month, soon to be two. Despite the overwhelming fear that gripped me, I felt a newfound resolve building within.

My fingers involuntarily tightened around Logan's hand. He seemed perplexed, leaning in to whisper in my ear, "Are you nervous or afraid?" I shook my head, not wanting to reveal the true turmoil that churned within me. He couldn't possibly grasp the weight of the emotions that surged through me at that moment.
