A prickle of apprehension ran down my spine and a low growl built in the base of my throat as an idea formed in my mind which I just couldn’t get rid of. She hadn’t been at Ignis House last night and I knew she’d been sleeping here a lot. And if Caleb was missing from his room, then what if... I swear it felt like the stars were nudging me towards that door, stoking the flames of jealousy and anger in me even though I had no right to feel anything like that yet. Or at all, really. She wasn’t mine. But she was. And if he’d fucking touched her again, I’d rip his cock off and set it alight.
