NovelEnglishREAGAN'S POV.
The moment the car door is opened for me, I step out of it and stand perfectly still. Every inch of my skin is taut with tension, fraught with feeling. Pressure is building in my chest, my heart is pounding louder and faster and harder. A gust of of wind slapsacross my face as though punishingfor my actions. Sirens are spinning in my blood as I walk into the house.
