Chapter 22

• [ARIETTA’S POV]
• I was still in a daze when I realized we were no longer at the party, and Pierce was pulling me away from there. I looked at our hands, still intertwined. My heart raced when I noticed our skin had been touching for a while. The memory of him doing the body shot on me earlier came rushing back. I could feel the heat on my cheeks again, so I quickly yanked my hand away and stopped walking.
• It felt like I was burning up as long as I kept feeling the heat of Pierce's skin against mine.
