The icy touch zapped from my wrist through my limbs, sending a tingle up my scalp. In the next second, I saw the guy’s long fingers creeping towards my wristband and I thought. “Oh no.” I yanked my hand back in a panic.

“Does the kid from the Temple family know where that wristband came from?” Hogan asked with an icy stare. “If he knew you cherished something given by another dude, do you think he’d still be all over you?”

It felt like my heart was being ripped apart, and as I was about to respond, a sweet voice chimed in.
