I don’t know how long I lay there, my skirt lifted and my tights askew, laid bare by the king of Voclain Academy.

I still smell him. I still taste him. I still…want him, and I am nagged by the thought I always will.

I stare up at the ceiling, blinking slowly and hoping a psychic will pop down and answer all of my questions. It would be so much easier if someone would just tell me my destiny, laying out my life in a neat and orderly fashion. That way, I would have zero chances of fucking it all up.

Molly would be horrified by what just happened. She’d probably think I’m an awful friend. Or would she? Because although I adore Molly, logically I realize I haven’t known her all that long and I don’t know all that much about her.

Who was her first kiss? No clue.

Has she ever had a boyfriend? No idea.

What’s her favorite color? Okay, I got that one. It’s powder blue, which is different from sky blue and baby blue. Thank you, one part Molly’s explanation and one part Google.

Is she a murderer? No. Freakin’. Idea.

Part of me thinks I should just ask her, but when does that ever come up in conversation, casual or otherwise? Hey, Molly, how was your day? Oh, and—do you mind—was it you in the study with the candlestick?

No, I should just trust her. That’s what a good friend would do. That’s what William would do. That’s what I must do.

I’ve seen Molly stop her car to allow a pair of butterflies to cross the road—I know, not the safest driving choice—and pick up stranded worms off the sidewalk after an early morning rain and deposit them in the grass—sort-of gross.

The point is, Molly doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She is devoted to her family. She is an amazing big sister to Atticus, and she is courteous and caring to strangers. She never strikes back, not even when Berkshire pushes her to what has to be her absolute limit. But Ian doesn’t strike me as a liar either. He may be a bully—he may be my bully—but he’s nothing but devastatingly honest, even when my feelings have to pay the price of admission.

I can’t ask him because I know enough to know the Rules—those stupid things I don’t understand—won’t allow him to tell me. Plus, if Molly was really dangerous, I think Ian would warn me. He would warn me, right? Asking Archie is off limits because of the Rules too, and Raven already said it’s Molly’s secret to keep or to tell.

So, here I am, stuck between betraying my friend and breaking my heart with no clairvoyants available to tell me my fate and no time machines to press rewind if I mess it all up.

I need my broken piece. I need William here. He could always untie the tangle of my thoughts and point me in the correct direction.

But maybe that’s being too generous. If he had
