Victoria's POV

I saw Cassie go off with Maland, and only then could I heave a sigh of relief. God only knows, where Mike is now? I wonder if he went back to the University or someplace else. He had his memories wiped off, that means he shall remember nothing about me. The thought disturbed me somehow, I wasn't particularly glad contemplating a second reunion with my brother. What shock would it be to him, to be confronted with a sister whom he thought was dead, twice?!

It was one of the reasons I had not volunteered to go with Maland. I wanted to spare Mike the nasty shock of seeing me alive, and also I thought it would be better if Cassie were to break the news to him. I have never been particularly sensitive when it comes to revealing something, and Mike didn't need my help discovering the truth.
