Excerpt 4: Ryan
Ryan’s adrenaline was pumping, his heart pounding, yet he’d never felt so disconnected, almost feeling alone as for the first time being this hyped up, he couldn’t sense the other animals in the trees or hear every one of the forest’s movements all at once, including the movement of Donna’s heartbeats.
Guessing the Original would have taken her right back to where he’d nearly killed them as children years ago had been a risk that had paid off. If it hadn’t … Ryan shook thinking about it as he frantically tried to move toward Donna who for a moment, overtaken by fear and most likely seeing abilities for the first time—not including the times she couldn’t remember—took a step back from him.
“Donna, it’s just me, it’s ok. I promise I’m ok,” he said as he put his gun away and put his hands up. Slowly but surely she moved a step forward and he approached her also slowly too. He never thought he’d be this close again to losing her as he took in her beauty in a new human way that almost made him feel insignificant. He noticed with his eyes instead of sensing with his senses that her body was shaking and that’s all the time he needed before he was moving in, grabbing her gently, and wrapping his arms around her as she stood still.
“Donna, Donna, I’m so sorry.”
She didn’t do what he thought she would, what she had done last time, which was frantically try to ask him what was happening, what he or the Original were before her memory had been messed with by Saul when they were children. Instead what came out of her mouth was, “How did you … How did you stop him?” Her heart was racing fast as he held her in his arms and could feel it and her warm body up against his chest, matching his own crazy pulse.
