Chapter 42: Cassandra

"We've looked all over campus," I said and turned away from Nicolette, gazing at the stars, knowing they were probably watching when Ruby was taken. The guys were still out looking, hopefully following orders not to split up. "We should have never let her out of our sight. At least one of us could have stayed with her."

Nicolette patted my leg and held my hand. "You can't keep everyone safe all the time. Until Ren and Edius are either captured or killed none of us are safe." She released my hand and crossed her arms, looking up at the stars with me. "You really think Edius' reach will extend to other places out there?"
