Possession
“I couldn’t sleep with all the growling in my gut. Just when I’d drift off, my insides ached as if they were about to collapse.
I finally couldn’t take it anymore. I sat up, feeling weak. I had to eat. Across from me, Jag slept. I slipped over the rocky surface, cringing when the grating sounds of my movement echoed off the cave walls.
Jag’s backpack unzipped easily, quietly. The silver protein packets glinted underneath the orange rope. I reached for them, cursing silently when they slid furthe...r into the pack.

I wondered which one it was this time. Part of me longed to be asleep so I could experience his memories with him. Another part hated that I could enter his mind at all. And still another part wanted nothing more than to eat. Now.
Tucking the lone protein packet in my back pocket, I pulled on my backpack and stumbled in the direction of the river.MoreLess
