He kissed my hand.
“Don’t worry.”
Then he shoved me away.
I watched him turn back to the shore, shouting like a madwoman.
“Quinn! You have to come back! I’ll be waiting for you! If you come back, I’ll marry you!”
He waved at me.
That was when I saw what he was holding.
A homemade bomb?!
The boat floated away.

The boat floated away.
The shore was ablaze.
I screamed.
“Quinn!!”
But everyone there was dead…
I didn’t go to the watchtower. Instead, I hurried
back to shore.
There were body parts everywhere, but no sign
of life.
“Quinn…”
My voice trembled.
“Quinn!”
No one answered me.

No one answered me.
“Savannah!”
I whirled around.
“Quinn… Luke?”
Luke arrived with the police.
“Are you okay? Are you hurt? Hey? Savannah?”
I grabbed his throat.
“Was it you? You’re the only one who could
touch my things!”
In both lives, the only person besides Quinn
who could get to my personal belongings was
him!
The police pulled us apart.

“We’ve found the person who poisoned you.”
Someone was brought forward.
I stared in surprise.
It was the doctor friend Luke had introduced to
- me.
