Alex looks at me. "On the other plane with everyone else."

Aria gave me a skeptical look.

"What happened, Aria?" Alex asks again.

Aria looks back at Alex and then at me. Her skeptical look changes into a glare, and I can see her guard up, not wanting to tell Alex what happened while I'm in the room.

Her fucking future husband.

The father of her child.

God.

I haven't even thought of Thalia.

How is Aria going to react to Thalia?

Aria doesn't remember me at all so what if she doesn't remember Thalia.

"Alex, I need to talk to you," I say, making Alex look away from Aria.

I can tell he is concerned about why she is acting like this.

Me, out of everyone, is most concerned.

I want to know what happened to my Aria.

Ten

Ace.

His name is from the dream, and he almost looks exactly like the man that has been appearing in my dreams.

But I can't trust him.

I don't even know him.

We are in the car right now. I have been telling Alex that I want to go home but he told me we can't go home just yet.

He hasn't explained anything to me. He is hiding something, and I need to figure out what he is hiding.

Ace is in the other car with this guy named Leo while I'm in the car with Alex.

"I need you to tell me what happened while I was gone," I state to Alex.

"Aria, I honestly have no clue what I can tell you. I need to first get you to a doctor."

He isn't wrong.

The doctor needs to figure out what Dante put in my body.

My mind is filled with questions.

"Okay. I think that's probably a good start."

"Ace has already messaged the doctor and he is going to check you once you get to the house. To see what happened. When you talk to the doctor you have to tell him everything that happened."

“You trust this Ace guy?”
