A chill ran down her spine as sweat beaded at her temples. She turned around stiffly, just in time to catch a glimpse of a dark figure brushing past her shoulder.

Hugh walked right by her without so much as a glance, but the chill he brought with him lingered in the air like a storm front.

Sarah turned her head slowly, almost mechanically. There he was, tall and imposing, now standing protectively beside Serena.
