Alex POV
Sleep did not come easy, and when it eventually came, I kept dreaming of Gemma being taken from me and never seeing her again. It was a nightmare on repeat. I heard her voice so clearly; she was calling out to me and begging me to save her.
When Dad came to wake me up, it was a relief at first, pulling me out of the nightmare.
However, as I used the bathroom, all sorts of evil thoughts rushed at me, and I had to get to the office fast. I put on my clothes from yesterday, as I did not want to waste time going to my room.
I was a little surprised when Dad came to find me in Gemma's room, but it was not that hard to figure out. But I still had not expected it.
By the time I reached the office, I was all worked up with all sorts of awful scenarios, some worse than my nightmares
