Broken World (Book 3): Mad World - Plot & Excerpts
IT ALWAYS STARTS WITH SMOKE. It’s dark and I’m back in my old room in the trailer—if you can call it a room—and I stumble outta my bed. My heart’s poundin’ and I’m sweatin’ even though I know it’s just a dream. My hand shakes when I reach for the doorknob. I gotta get her. That’s the thought that always goes through my mind. Even though I know this ain’t real and I know I can’t do nothin’ to change the past. I still try. I can feel the heat before I open the door. Flames. The whole goddamn trailer is covered in flames. I cough just like I did that night, and the smoke burns my lungs. I ain’t never forgot that feelin’. Never will. I want to get her, but I can’t. There ain’t nothin’ I can do— I jerk awake, coughin’. My eyes are wet, just like they always are after I have that goddamn dream. And I’m covered in sweat. I inhale slowly and wipe the tears away before Angus sees ‘em.
