Chapter 26 'Ryn'

My heart sk**ed a beat. "What?"

He whispered in my ear, making goosebumps erupt all over my skin. "You're supposed to attack when it is least expected and now as a bad guy, I can do anything I want with you. Anything." A delicious shiver ran down my spine but when he released me I scrambled away from him as fast as I could. When I turned around,
