Not a human. The human.

I gulped. "Please don't make me go with you."

His smile widened. "Are you afraid?"

It felt like a test.

I didn't know what to say.

I opened my mouth to yell no, but it was like he'd stolen the words from my lips. His head tilted back. "Come."

I shook my head, forcing myself to breathe, to not give into the fear that threatened to choke me.

"Come, or I kill your vampire. Your choice."

My throat released. "Don't!"

"So you'll come?" He seemed pleased.

"Just don't hurt him."

"You have my word. It won't be me who hurts your mate."

I nodded and reached out, touching my hand to his. And my world faded to white.

Ignoring him, I rolled my eyes and continued reading the paper. I was just about to put it down and grab my keys so that I could finish what I needed to do for the day and find an excuse to stop at the bookstore, when pain sliced through my chest.

My knees buckled as I reached for the table to steady myself.

"Ethan?" Alex was immediately by my side.

My blood boiled, turning to acid beneath my skin as the room started to spin. "Something's wrong."

"Sit down."

I pushed him away.

Mason was soon at my other side.

The door to the house opened, and Stephanie appeared right in front of us. "Ethan, I tried to—"

Our eyes met.

Hers were white.

"What. Have. You. Done." I roared, the heat in my blood searing every rational thought in my body.

Stephanie held up her hands and took a step back. "Nothing. I did nothing. I woke up, and she was gone!"

Alex cursed. "Cassius."

"No," I repeated. "It isn't Cassius."
