As she became fully conscious, she had a feeling she wasn’t alone. She didn’t remember the telepathic conversation she had with him, just a portion of a beautiful beach dream which didn’t last long enough and ended with a loud, blaring sound. Even though she was in a terrible place, she felt calm and rested and knew he was there in his astral form. She said out loud, “Bryce, I want you to know that I love you beyond anything that makes sense. I have a feeling it’s because of you that I feel better. You’ve given me strength to face my captor. Please be safe. I want you to get here in one piece so you can beat the hell out of him or kill him. Either one is fine with me. I want to watch. If I have an opportunity to escape, I’m going to take it and borrow someone’s phone to call you.”
He was still there, lying next to her. He knew she wouldn’t be able to hear him, but he responded anyway, “If you can escape, go for it and keep running. I will find you.” The sound of a banging door and loud voices in the hotel hallway brought him back to his physical body, and he decided it was time to take a shower and hit the road. He would soon discover the reason behind the angry voices down the hall.
She got up an hour later after lying on the bed thinking of her plight and creating escape scenarios in her head. She walked slowly down the stairs, cursing her shackles and cuffs. Her head was clear and she looked around the dark and dingy shed wanting to kill Mike. She was terribly thirsty and shuffled to the grimy, dirty sink hoping that the water would come out clear and drinkable. She turned the knob, and the water looked clear. She leaned down taking a sip from the running spigot. It tasted good, and she continued swallowing it. Her heart sank when she heard the door unlatch, and Mike walked in.
