Adea
As if on a mission, Shane scanned the room like a hawk. I had hoped maybe he had given up on his obsession with me but as he searched around the room, I knew he hadn’t. He was in search of someone and I had a feeling that someone was me. I steadied my breathing and readied myself for when he found me. I would not show weakness here or any sign of fear. Shane was like a predator and could smell fear.
His gaze froze on each Luna with brown hair and I steadied my breathing and readied myself for when he found me. The last time I had seen Shane was during the trial and the time before that had been the night of the Crescent Moon Ball.
Without meaning to, images from that night spilled into my mind. Shane’s hand on my throat, the anger on his face, and his body pressed against mine. My breath hitched as I recalled the way he’d forced himself on me, my lack of fight, and the fear that coursed through my body.
