He saw Lyvana's body jerk upright, as though someone had shocked her.
The pen slipped from her fingers and rolled across the floor.
On the silent security footage, Lyvana looked completely disoriented. Her eyes darted around the police station wildly, as if she had awakened somewhere she did not recognize.
A passing sergeant paused beside her desk and slid a thick file toward her, but she barely reacted. Her attention stayed locked on the computer screen in front of her.

Julian felt a cold chill crawl down his spine.
Slowly, he reached for the remote and rewound the footage. He watched it again. And again. Every movement. Every expression. Every second.
The exact moment she started to behave differently was right after the static interference. It was as if a different soul had stepped into her body during that glitch.
He shook his head in disbelief.
