CHAPTER 87

  Lola's POV

  The school bell finally rang through the entire school building for break period, and I felt my heart skip a beat as fear engulfed me. I also felt the shudder Jace made and knew that he was also afraid of what would be his fate for standing by me.

  The teacher immediately picked up her instruments and walked out of the class, causing me to shut my eyes and swallow hard as I feared looking sideways to avoid the stares of the students.

  "Did you really save a vampire?" Jace asked me at that moment, and I tilted my head towards him, letting my eyes fall on those eyes, which were filled with pity and sadness.

  I opened my mouth to talk, but could only gasp as I feared spitting the truth. I was never good at lying, and it was also useless to deny what everyone would eventually know.

  He saw the fear in my eyes and sighed, looking away while I caught a glimpse of the wetness in his eyes.
