Chapter 17 Trust Her?

• Chase’s P.O.V
• Lucia’s green eyes were soft, her posture open, but I couldn’t forget yesterday, when her eyes had glowed crimson, drawn to my blood like a predator. Another vampire. After Alex’s betrayal, his bite, his lies, I wasn’t about to trust her, no matter how kind she seemed to be at the moment, my trust issues right now were topnotch….
• I let out a sharp, humorless laugh, shaking my head as I looked Lucia straight in the eyes. “You really think I’m going to fall for that?” I said, voice low and a little bitter.
