Dessa -- Iāve always known Sonja, my foster sister, thrives on chaos. It never occurred to me sheād go so far as to buy children, then use them as leverage against a club of bikers. When armed men burst through the door, Iām terrified -- not only of them, but of losing little Junie and Judd. Those kids mean everything to me, but theyāre not really mine. I know I canāt keep them. And when the bikers walk out with the children, I donāt even try to stop them. Without Sonja and the kids, Iām alone. The darkness Iāve held at bay starts to close in on me, and I have to wonder⦠how much longer before I join my family on the other side?
Savior -- I only wanted my daughter. When I find her, I didnāt count on a sweet angel keeping watch. I should walk away. But Dessa loves my little girl as if she were her own. I feel like a monster taking Junie away from her. Thereās a sadness in her eyes. It tugs at me, makes me want to protect her. So I give in to my instincts, and I take Dessa with me. I didnāt count on falling under her spell. Sheās wrapped me around her finger, and Iām not sure I really mind.
