Griffin~
I had no idea how long I'd been out. Could've been a few minutes. Could've been hours. Hell, maybe even days. Time didn't seem to exist where I was.
The only thing I knew for sure was the pain—sharp, searing, soul-deep pain. The kind that doesn't just hurt your body but carves straight through your spirit. One moment, I was falling apart in the ruins of Zane's estate, flames licking the sky, the world collapsing around me. The next… I was here.
Wherever here was.
Just black. Endless, crushing black.
No floor beneath me. No sky above. Just an infinite void stretching in every direction like the universe had forgotten how to exist—and somehow, I'd landed smack in the middle of it.
And I was alone.
Completely, terrifyingly alone.
