• Nicole sprinted through the dense forest, her heart pounding in her chest, matching the rhythm of her footfalls. Each stride carried her farther away from the familiar into the depths of the unknown. The cool breeze brushed against her skin, the sounds of nature surrounding her like a comforting embrace.
• As she ran, her thoughts raced alongside her. The encounter with Liam had left her reeling, emotions swirling within her like a tempest. She couldn't deny the undeniable pull she felt towards him, the way her body responded to his touch. But at the same time, the memory gaps and the fear of the unknown clouded her mind.
• Breathing heavily, Nicole slowed her pace and found herself in a clearing bathed in the soft glow of the moonlight. She looked up at the celestial body, its ethereal beauty casting a serene ambiance upon her.
