I could not leave him, for it would mean a death sentence. He would surely stalk me until I was most vulnerable and strike. He had never said that, bu...t I knew Victor, so I had no doubt. It would happen. He had done it to others. A few hours ago it had seemed so simple, swim until I could no longer swim; then let the ocean take me. I would be free, free of Victor and free of fear.

There was a simple phrase written in the lovely loops and spirals she had loved since she was a kid. It said ‘I’m okay.’ Rea smiled at that memory and unconsciously ran a hand over her tiger.
