Chapter 146
- Ella’s POV
- My lungs burned and my legs ached as I sprinted through the hallway, eventually forcing open a window at the far end of the hospital. I didn’t think—I just jumped.
- The landing was rough. My ankle twisted awkwardly as I hit the ground, but I didn’t stop. I gritted through the pain and ran, weaving through the alley behind the building, searching desperately for any place to hide—anywhere I could feel safe.
