AIDAN
My head throbbed the moment my eyes opened.
A sharp, pounding pain spread through my skull, making it almost impossible to focus. I winced slightly, my brows pulling together as I tried to adjust to the light filtering into the room. Everything felt heavy, my body, my thoughts, even my breathing.
It was hard to grasp what was in front of me.
For a few seconds, I just lay there, staring blankly, my vision blurry, my mind struggling to catch up. Nothing felt clear. Nothing felt right and worse….I couldn't remember anything.
I tried.
I really did.
I searched my mind, forcing myself to think back, to trace my steps, to recall anything—anything at all—from before I fell asleep but there was nothing, just emptiness.
It didn't make sense.
I shifted slightly, stretching my arm as I tried to sit up, but then, I felt it—warmth.My body brushed against something—someone—warm and solid.
I froze instantly.
