Liora’s POV“Liora. Liora!”“Mm… I don’t want pancakes… Maybe waffles…”“Liora!”I jolted awake at the sound of Mia’s hissing voice, her hands shaking my shoulder violently. Images of rogues filled my mind, and jerking upright, I gasped, “What? What is it?”The room was quiet. It was past midnight,

Liora’s POV“Well, well. What do we have here?” One of the rogues, a male in human form, stepped forward. The moonlight caught the jagged scar that cut across his cheek, making the smoothed-over flesh almost seem to gleam a silvery hue. Cold eyes flicked over us before landing on one of the girls in

Liora’s POVCallum and I froze. The guards’ flashlights blinded me, making the ache behind my eyes even worse. I blinked, trying to take a step back, but Callum’s arm remained firm around my waist, refusing to let me move.“Must I repeat myself?” one of the guards asked, stepping forward.
