Chapter 9 · The Mother Below
The floor split under Nora's boots before the freed man could say another word.
A black crack raced between the tiles. Heat punched up through it, sharp enough to make her eyes water. The man who had named her—Nora Vale, like he'd been waiting years to spit it out—grabbed the railing with both hands. Around him, the other prisoners stumbled away from the opening.
Caden caught Nora by the waist.
