Chapter 80

• Jenny’s POV
• The door slammed behind me as I walked into the house, the sound echoing off the walls in a way that made it clear I was in trouble. Again. I braced myself, trying to ignore the knot of anxiety that had settled in my stomach. I hadn’t done anything wrong. Not really. But I knew Jacob wouldn’t see it that way. He and I were the only ones in the house today and I had managed to sneak out without him knowing.
• He was waiting for me in the living room, standing with his arms crossed and an expression that I’d seen too many times. Angry, frustrated, protective in that way that was starting to get on my nerves. I had just gone out for a quick drink with some girls in my class—nothing dangerous, nothing that should have mattered. But in this house, everything was a big deal.
