Chapter 51: S3 Betrayal: I Need You

Sophia Mahoney

A far off, distant voice calls out Sophia's name. It pulls at her, drawing her from the depths of slumber like the sultry song of a merman in the turbulent depths of the deep blue sea.

The strings of her consciousness strum and Sophia's eyes flutter under her lids. Sleeps call to her, and she finds herself drifting off once more.

A warm breeze blows over her neck and face, sending goose bumps to erupt across her entire body.

"Sophia," Aden's masculine voices speaks once more. "Can you hear me? Are you awake?"

The rich, smooth tone of his voice makes her draw in a deep breath, then she sighs.

"Yes, Aden," she replies, then opens her eyes. "I can hear you."

"You're a heavy sleeper." Liquid pools of blue hold her captivated.
