Whispers in the Dark

Maddie wasn't sure Thorne will make it home that night.
She put Thea to bed and then retired herself, hoping a familiar bed will bring her rest.
But her sleep was as filled with sneers, taunts, unsettling images and feelings of dread and hopelesness, as when she was in the cell.
But then a deep familiar voice called out her name, and with a gasp, as if she just emerged from the depth of sea, she opened her eyes to find Thorne holding her.
Something deep inside told him he needs to protect the woman he loves - even from herself.
