Overnight everything was turned upside down, when the child’s mother bled to death on their front doorstep. Her last words: He’s coming here…for her! Save her.

She has everything I’ve ever wanted. First, I’ll take her name. Then, I’ll steal her life… I turn my head and stare at the woman lying in the hospital bed next to mine. She has long brown hair, high cheekbones and dark eyes. She looks so much like me, we could easily be mistaken for one another. And that’s how we ended up here. I planned it. Freya has the kind of life that most people would kill for–more money than she knows what to do with and the freedom to spend her days as she chooses. But I don’t think she deserves any of it.

Not a physician, psychologist, or world-renown specialist has been able to elicit so much as a word from the silent woman … until now.

He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.
