Chapter 11

• "Don't hurt her."
• Evelyn's gasp was difficult to hear, but its force pushed air from her lungs. She looked over at the trembling maid by the door still holding her chest, shards of the shattered vase glinting on the floor like shards of evil that were scattered in every direction all over the room.
• Adrian did not move. His eyes were still glued to Evelyn, and the gun was still pointed in the maid’s direction. The air was too heavy to inhale.
