Adeline's eyes snapped open. She sat up in bed, her forehead drenched in a cold sweat.
What a strange dream.
It was the first time she had seen Elias in her dreams. He seemed quite familiar with her as well.
Adeline recalled she was wary of strangers. She still was. She rarely smiled at her relatives, much less a stranger. If little Adeline had requested Elias to pick her up, and even feed her, then it must have meant she had her full trust in him. But how was this possible?
Adeline did not remember meeting Elias until that night. As the years went by, she gradually forgot her childhood memories.
"This is too bizarre," she said to herself.
There was nothing Adeline could do. She would just have to ask Asher. He would know something. He had accompanied her for a long time now.
