Without thinking, I reached upwards and caught the cup. Instantly, a pain went through me. I dropped the chalice as if it were a hot coal and gasped. “What is it?” Draven appeared at my shoulder. “Fuck.”
Here, it should be explained that she caught the cup with her bloody hand, which is why she said “without thinking” I’m assuming. The author leaves so much crap out that needs to be explained right then and there I’m guessing because she thinks it adds to the intrigue and is mysterious… but it’s not. It’s an incomplete thought, scene etc. Ridiculous.
