Suddenly he’s standing over me,
and that’s when I realize that the blade I just dropped is being held against
my neck.
“Does your cruelty know no bounds,
highness?” he spits with venomous loathing.
Alex doesn’t recognize me. I came
here to save him, and now Alex is going to end my existence. I take a moment to
appreciate the irony—that the one who saved me is going to be the one to kill
me.
“Alex?” I whisper. “Please.”
I feel the knife cut deeper into my skin as his
features cloud over in confusion. Closing my eyes, I wait for the end.
Oh wow! C.J. do you know how much torture it is to just read teasers! I want to read all of Sever already! :3 pretty please with a cherry on top? :)
