Kael's POV
I sat in the cell, resting my back against the hard wall. I had not been able to reach out to her for a while. Ever since they locked me up in this terrible facility, every single attempt I made to send my thoughts across to her failed. For some reason, there was something always blocking it up until today. Every time I tried to reach out with my mind, I hit a thick, invisible wall that drained my strength and left me burning with fever.
But today was different.
For the first time in a long time, we spoke. Even though it lasted for only a few seconds, hearing her voice was like breathing fresh air after drowning in deep water.
As our minds connected insid, I felt everything she was going through. I felt the deep emptiness she was feeling, the sharp pain in her body, and the terrible confusion of not knowing what was happening to her.
She thought she was going crazy. She thought her own mind was breaking down from guilt, but I knew the truth.
