Nora's POV
The familiar disorientation of being transported across the world washes over me, but this time it fades within seconds. My body adapts more quickly now, just as Kevin predicted it would. Brilliant sunlight assaults my vision, forcing me to squeeze my eyes shut. Even without looking, I recognize this place immediately. The rhythmic crash of waves against sand and the warmth beneath my feet tell me everything I need to know.
This beach holds significance. Here, Shane revealed the truth about my identity, confirming that I wasn't truly a Sutton. This is where he validated what my heart had whispered for so long - that the blue-eyed man standing beside me was my biological father.
"Why did you bring me here?" I demand, stepping back from Shane while shielding my eyes from the glare. Mental note: demand sunglasses before any future beach teleportation.
