Immediately, anger flashed through me at the unnecessary hoola–baloo, but I kept myself in check. My Uncle was just trying to be cautious and doesn’t know Adam like I did,

My friend and I exchanged smiles, but as I crossed the room to go to his bed, Dominic held me back by gripping my elbow.

I slowly turned, looking from his hand to his face. “Let me go!” I mindlinked, not wanting to disrespect him in front of

“No.” His silver eyes hardened. “I don’t trust him.”

“But I do! He’s had my back in more ways than one. He’s not a bad guy!”

Dominic arched a brow. “The Healers ran tests on him, Kathryn. He has scars all over his body, especially his back. Seems he gets whipped occasionally. His back has been destroyed.”

I couldn’t help but look at Adam’s way. Poor thing was probably suffering because he associated himself with me. “I think his father is abusive to him. I promise, Adam is not a bad person.”
