To Risk it All
Sydney quickly composed herself as she came to the realization that she had to warn Vaughn. He might be in great danger if this Covenant woman was after him. Sydney had a problem. She couldn't easily warn Vaughn because the Covenant was probably tracking her whereabouts. If she tried to see him, they would surely harm them both. Sydney couldn't just sit there; she had to do something, even if it put her life in danger. Her safety was of no concern to her. She had to alert the love of her life.
Syd made up her mind. She was going to risk everything, her standing within the Covenant as Julia Thorne, her safety, and most likely Vaughn's too. This was something that she had to do. If Sydney didn't tell Vaughn that Lauren Reed was misleading him and that she was a part of the Covenant, there was no telling what type of danger he might find himself in. Vaughn would feel betrayed because loyalty was always a big issue for him, but she had no other choice. It would probably just get worse if she left Vaughn alone. He needed to be warned.
As Sydney drove towards Vaughn's house, she began to have doubts about her plan. What if her visit put him in more danger than before? What if the Covenant was following and planned to murder them both if she talked to him? These thoughts and many more kept streaming through her mind. However, if she didn't do anything and he was hurt she would never forgive herself. If she could protect him, she would do everything in her power to keep him safe.
Sydney pulled into his driveway and her heart just about shattered. She was too late. Lauren had already gotten to him. Vaughn's front door was wide open and the house was dark except for one light in his living room. Syd leaned back over the steering wheel and tried to pull herself together.
