I hardly slept a wink of sleep throughout the night. Yet as the alarm went off it, it cut out before I could even open my eyes. Fingertips gripped my wrist, and my eyes flew open at the sharp sting of fangs piercing my skin. My heart thumped in m y chest, and Tobias growled before euphoria rushed through m e as his magic caressed over me, stifling the scream I was sure was about to tear out of me.
