KASMINE.

"Let me go, Kester!" I managed to choke out, but my words barely made it past my dry throat. I clawed at his arm as I struggled against the iron grip around my throat.

His body pressed into mine, caging me against the wall, heat radiating from him like an inferno.

But it was his eyes-those eyes-that made terror freeze up my blood.

Dark. Dilated. Ferocious.

Unhinged.

"Kester," I gasped, my voice cracking, "you're hurting me!"

His lips curled into a wicked, twisted smile. "Good," he murmured, as if that was what he wanted, as if my panic was exactly what he needed. "Good."

"Please..." I breathed.

"What? Can't stand the beast you awakened?" He seethed, his words coming in a snarl. "Such a perfect performance tonight, Kasmine. Bravo."

His voice was simmering with a madness that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. It was like I wasn't even looking at the man I knew anymore. This was something else-something unrecognizable and dangerous.

His face was inches from mine, breath fanning across my cheek, bitter with whisky and rage.

My lungs screamed for air as his grip tightened around my throat, fingers digging in, making my vision blur at the edges.
