I redoubled my efforts then. Digging my fingers into the rock even harder and faster. I swung my body up as quickly as I could. I was going to ignore the pain. I was going to ignore the not so subtle way that the darkness below me was trying to pull me back down. I…

“Joaquin?” Griffin broke the silence. “If the pain is too much, I can give you something for it.” “No, that’s fine. I don’t need it. The pain is already starting to lessen. If it’s bad tomorrow, I might take it, but for now, I am OK.” I refused his offer. As I had said, the…

“JOAQUIN!?” I screamed his name and he looked right at me. His golden eyes fixed on mine with confusion and fear. “T..T..Riviana, you’re covered in blood.” “It’s your blood, idiot.” I leaned down and kissed his lips gently. “You were almost dead.

**** Riviana **** I watched as Griffin, Riley and Landon all carried Joaquin away and toward the castle. I knew that they were taking him inside so that Griffin could help Joaquin. I knew that they were taking him to the infirmary, the clinic in the castle that Griffin had insisted on building, even though…
