Fear of the unknown threatened to make me cry out, but I strangled it back down. We had to move forward.
We had to survive and fight.
We sat there, quiet under the gray winter sky of the desert. It made me wonder how many others were out there like us. Lost. Grieving. Looking for survivors.
My heart thumped rapidly, mixing with the white noise in my mind. Rylen and I were on the cusp of something. Something there would be no coming back from. Things between us would change today, for better or worse.
They’d ripped everything, everything , from me. I wouldn’t let terror and loss kill my spirit, not while there was still breath in my lungs and blood pumping through my heart.
I pressed my hand against the window and stared out at the dark night as one hot tear slid down my cheek, and I made a promise to my family. Remy. Rylen.
“I won’t let it be for nothing.”
With Baelese overseeing their reproduction, education, food control, and working conditions, humans would want for nothing. One race. One language. No poverty. Each person a useful cog in the labor wheel.I’m really impressed with Higgins’ writing, the world building and real characters were wonderful. (You MUST read these books in order!) The suspense and action is realistic and frightening. I was left in the dark as many of the main characters and that was awesome.
