Then the sight of him, defeated on the ground, suddenly jerked violently and his neck snapping, sends my heart sinking into my stomach. "I can't believe it. Ryder was angry about the baby, sure. I was there when he found out, but I never would have expected..." I am visibly shaken by not only Ryder's death, but the implications surrounding it. "So... who killed him then? If not Xan?"

Once Doctor Malori was done testing me, my father would come and bring us back to live with him." Pauses thoughtfully. "But, that never happened. My mother died in that lab. So disease that wasted her away to a shell of her former self. She never lost hope though. Even when she was at death's door, she couldn't stop talking about how nice it would be when Father arrived and took us home."
