Glint (The Plated Prisoner, #2)

by Raven Kennedy

Time changes with torment. It stretches on, lengthening seconds, extending minutes. I’ve learned that pain and fear have a way of prolonging. And as if that weren’t cruel enough, our minds make sure we relive those moments again and again and again, long after they’ve passed. What a bastard, time is.

“Kindness shouldn’t have to be earned. It should be freely given.”

The fact that he’s so unworried, worries me. It seems like a weakness, if I’m honest. The intelligent are always considering the what-ifs, the could-happens. Our minds a constant spin of possibilities and outcomes. If you don’t worry, you’re either a fool or you’ve been fooled.
