Conduit
“Lev whispered, afraid to call too loudly lest she disappear forever. He took a couple of steps forward, his mind still shocked by what was right in front of him.
She was alive.
“Can you hear me?” he asked, louder this time. He was almost within arm’s reach when he saw her chin rise slowly, the movement so slight it was almost imperceptible.
In the back of Lev’s mind, he heard warning bells going off. Why wasn’t she moving? Didn’t she care that everything ...was falling apart around her and that all of them had risked everything coming here? How could she seem so cold and removed from it all?
So many questions, and she seemed almost oblivious to everything around her.
Unable to quiet the questions or resolve the panic threatening to consume him, Lev did the only thing he knew would make him feel better: he knelt and slid his fingers beneath her chin so he could look at her. Her eyes would tell him everything was going to be all right.MoreLess
