Lorraine's POV
The moment my eyes landed on him, a deep fury tore through my chest.
Adrian.
He was tied up behind the tree, wrists bound tight behind his back, ankles secured, his body slumped against the bark like discarded trash. There was dried blood on his face, a split lip, one eye already swelling shut. A thick gag was shoved into his mouth, muffling whatever sounds he might've been trying to make.
For half a second, the world went quiet.
And then everything exploded.
"You," I breathed, and then my voice cracked open, sharp and furious. "You."
I tore myself away from Kieran and took a step forward before anyone could stop me. My hands curled into fists so tight my nails bit into my palms.
"You killed Felix," I said, my voice shaking now, rising with every word. "You killed him. He's dead because of you."
