Why had she been getting so close to him now? She thought. She returned her gaze up to Cain. He smiled at her and whispered, “I’m here for you now.” She could not look away from his eyes, she almost felt like she was in a trance, they were so mezmerizing. He said her name again, but it was another voice that came out of his lips.
     
    “Shayna,” it was Sarah, “Are you alive in there?”
    Her eyes slowly opened. She had fallen asleep, and the water was freezing, she shivered.
    “I’m alive,” she said through the door. “Barely,” she added.
    She heard her mom laugh on the other side of the door. “Good night. I’m going to bed.”
    “I’m out,” Shayna told her, and pushed herself up and out of the cold water. “Good night.” Shayna wrapped herself in a towel and stepped out of the bathtub, careful not to drip water on Utopia .
