"Let me go!" I yelled at him.
"What's wrong with you... do you have a death wish?!"
At his sharp profound voice, my tantrums ceased and all that was left of me was pulverizing breath and my jerky gaze on his, he watches me closely and I didn't take my eyes off him either, just the unsteady sound of my breath filled us with a mix of silence, not a sound of words heard, just our gazes conveying things even I can't fathom but I knew it he was trying to read me, I was a mystery to him just as he is to me, both trying to make measure for something we would both never understand, maybe that was a good thing because of what he is... put not just me but Dace in danger and I didn't like that.
"Why are you going after them?" his sudden demand brought me back to the mistake I made by acting that way, will a lie even work right now? I have to try… this is my way of protecting Dace from him.
