DANCING WITH A STRANGER

KAT

Arms caught me before I fell back on the floor as the mist dispersed around me. I looked up, already knowing who held me.

“What happened?” Val demanded, uncaring to the number of eyes and ears on us as I realized I had teleported to the middle of the château’s foyer. There had to be a couple dozen people here. Val repeated himself, his voice sharper this time, the dread palpable. It didn’t help that he could feel my whole body shaking. “Doll Face?”

I didn’t say anything. I didn’t even try. I couldn’t process anything but Blaine’s expression as I left him in the assembly hall, so incongruent with what he had said.

Each word hammered into me like a falling brick, and at that moment, I wanted nothing but to be buried in the bottom of the rubble. The anger, the hurt, it numbed under that weight. It was the only thing that had me settling myself back on my feet, the only thing that had me taking Carly’s hand and pulling her toward the elevators. “Ask your brother.”

I expected to be bombarded with a million questions the second the elevator doors secured shut behind us, but much to my relief, Carly only murmured, “Where are we going?”

The hollowness in her voice matched

“I need a drink.”
