Skylar's POV
Seriously.
He was really leaving me here.
"I don't get why you are so surprised." Salony snickered in my head
I ignored her. It was not important right now. If he left, I would be all alone in this darkness. And he didn't care.
"This is not a joke!" I shouted after him. "What if something happens to me?"
He didn't break his stride, didn't even turn around. "Then try not to trip over a root."
My blood was boiling now. "Seriously? I could be attacked by rogue wolves, or—"
"Or maybe a squirrel." he tossed over his shoulder, sounding impossibly smug.
I huffed, crossing my arms. "Oh, great! And what if they gang up on me, huh? I bet they are plotting already."
"Maybe they will form a militia." His voice was calm, dripping with sarcasm, and I could almost see the smirk on his face.
Salony teased. "A true gentleman."
