Silence.
Breathing hard, I shove my curly weave out of my eyes and glance around. The kitchen is a mess. Glass shards everywhere. Broken china. Fine dust.
I wince, imagining how annoying it’ll be to clean up.
Looks like I’ll be eating out of plastic plates for a while.
I crawl from under the table, careful not to place the heel of my hands or my knees on any of the glass shards. The place is an absolute mess.
I look for the broom to start cleaning up, but it isn’t where it’s supposed to be. Nothing is where it’s supposed to be.
What the…?
My gaze whips to the cupboards that I now see are glass and wood-finished, nothing like the cheap, plastic ones I had back in the apartment. The foyer opens wide to an impressive living room area.
This place is huge.
Like ridiculously huge.
This isn’t my apartment.
I blink once.
Twice.
Nothing around me changes.
Panic builds in my heart, a warning bell in my head that won’t fade.
If this isn’t my apartment then… where the hell am I?

HAWK
Agony creeps over my body.
My eyes burst open.
Barclay points at my face. “He’s up!”
“Bro, you good?” Fitz asks.
I groan in pain.
Miles smirks. “I’ll take that as a no.”
“Look at that gash on his head. The man needs medical attention.” Fitz narrows his steely-brown eyes. “Why aren’t we getting the nurse again?”
“Because Barclay banged her last Christmas and now she hates all of us?” Miles says jokingly.
“Best night of her life though.”
Miles throws up a peace sign. “How many fingers am I holding up?”
“What the hell happened?” I croak.
“Don’t you remember?”
