Page 28 of The Syndicater (Dark Verse 6)

She is real.

She is found.

… heart erratically thumping…

She is alive.

She is real.

She is found.

… something lodged in his throat…

She is alive.

She is real.

She is found.

… tight, hot, almost choking him, yet…

She is alive.

She is real.

She is found.

… he felt like he was drawing his first breath.

Nine words.

She is alive.

She is real.

She is found.

… repeating, over and over…

She is alive.

She is real.

She is found.

…bouncing around his brain, off the walls of his skull…

She is alive.

She is real.

She is found.

For more than twenty years, he'd dreamed the words.

She is alive.

She is real.
