Lucy POV
Melana gripped my arm and tried to pull me back toward the car, but I kicked the door shut as she steered me toward it.
I'm not leaving. We are so close, please Melana," I beg her, but she ignores me, reopening the door.
"I let you die, and I will never forgive myself; we can come back with reinforcements, we can convince them to check the place out," Melana says while pulling her phone out.
"Shit, quick, we need to drive where I have reception," she says, leading me around the door so I don't try to kick it shut again when I hear a scream.
I look around for the scream, recognizing it as Rayan's instantly; the fear in it made my stomach sink, wondering what was happening to him.
"Did you hear that?" I ask Melana, and she looks at me funny.
"Hear what?" She says, looking around into the surrounding forest.
"Dad!" Rayan screams; a blood-curdling scream fills my head, and I clutch the sides of it, realizing it is the mindlink.
