394 Dark lake

Abigail's lips parted in shock as she looked at Zeke with wide eyes.

"This place… isn't this the palace where Alex… where Alex was…"

"Yes. This is the palace that he burned that night he left you," Zeke responded, causing Abi's heart to pound harder against her chest.

She looked around again, looking for Alex. Did he remember? He must have, right? That was why he came here!

Hope surged inside Abi as she walked towards the debris. She was glad the moon was shining down so brightly that night and she was able to clearly see everything. There was almost nothing left of the once formidable looking castle. It was desolate and empty and Abigail knew that many bodies had been burned here that night because the scene that she saw was vividly flashing in her mind again.

But Abigail was not afraid. She didn't have time to think about ghosts in this haunted looking ruin because she was busy thinking about Alex and looking for him.
