Chapter 119

JESSICA

I don’t fucking know their plans.

It’s been a day since I’ve bitten Theo and Grayson is still not doing anything except stare out the cabin window like he’s expecting them to come crashing through the trees any minute. My gums ache with the memory of breaking skin, of tasting Theo’s blood.
