Cassie.
Finn’s words were not expected, and staring up into his eyes, I was almost sure he was going to kiss me. Yet, instead of the kiss on my lips that I expected, he leaned forward and kissed my forehead, catching me off guard before quickly stepping away. The action wasn’t what I would have thought typical for a man like him, and without another word, he turned with his guard and disappeared back down the street from where we had come.
“Cassie, come with me…”
The deep voice behind me sent shivers over my spine as I realized Silas had seen the entire interaction. Turning slowly to face him, I took in the hazel eyes filled with fire as his narrowed brows loosened slightly and a heavy breath escaped his lips.
“What are you doing here?” My voice was shaky but without hesitation, he took my hand and pulled me gently behind him, back up the path from which I had come earlier on in the evening and through the doors that would eventually lead me back to my apartment.
