A thought flashed in my mind. “Had he succeeded... would you be disgusted by me? Would you want to leave?" "I don't care about that!" he said urgently. "That's not why asked. I was worried about you! About the horrors you might have been forced to endure! I was afraid something might have happened that could scar you forever." I stared at him in disbelief.

"How did you find me?" I asked.
"You didn't return from the bathroom for a long time, so I started searching. When it becclear you were missing, I thought of Edward," Soren explained. "I checked the surveillance footage, and as I suspected, he was the one who took you.
