The Fall Before Flight

There’s off-limits… and then there’s your psychiatrist.

They call this place Oasis, and he’s the doctor in charge.
He thinks he can save me. Heal me. Catch me if I fall…
Yeah, right.

Dr. Leo Chastain is a mouthwatering distraction.
For that reason alone, I’m inclined to play his game.
He doesn’t know I’m incapable of emotions that come naturally to others –
Fear, compassion, love…
I might be a sociopath.

I warned him my kind of broken can’t be fixed.
That the harder he pushes, the harder I’ll push back.
Until he’s broken, too.

I warned him.
