Chapter 10

• Going down the hill the next morning was the hardest walk of Shaelan’s life. She was a complete wreck, second guessing this idea with each step. Nona had decided to come with her, to distract the guards so Shae could speak to this green-eyed man. She didn’t even know his name. Did she want to know his name? No, she didn’t think so. Part of her hoped he turned her down flat. She wouldn’t feel slighted if he did. The only problem was, if he did, then she may have to be with Brock for the rest of her life.
• “You think any harder on this and I’m going to get a headache.” Nona said as they neared the bottom of the stairs.
• Huffing out groan, Shae looked at her. “I can’t help it. This is so bizarre, Nona, I’m still swimming in my own thoughts, trying not to drown.”
