Alex stiffened. Oh god, Henry wasn't dead. He wasn't dead. He really wasn't dead.

Jack shook her gently to gain her focus. "Act the same. I will send for you, I promise. We will get out of here together."

Liquid fire dripped through her. It heated her all the way to her core with loving warmth. She absorbed strength from his embrace. It fortified her and she felt renewed. She felt alive again as if the past months or even the past year had all just been some game. It had been a game, a game she fell for.
