But I have to admit, being around the Predators right now is calming my anxiety more than when I was at the Safe House with Leo, Ara, Pavo, and Lyra.

How???

An unbridled laugh billows from my jaws. Even though Pavo, Leo, and Ara rescued me from Psyriin, I have to admit the name suits them, after how unwilling they were to try to find the Charon.
Cassandra
I hate how quickly he just turned his back on them

I inquire about getting one for myself. I want something just as bold, like a tiger leaping through fire, or a venomous snake lunging from a swamp.

“So that’s your play, huh?” Arkright wears a devilish grin. “Get me alone, and try to extract secrets by sticking me in front of your walking lie detector. Is that it?”

The rest of them aren’t my friends. A few days of training and partying doesn’t make me a Predator. My heart sinks. My head rises.

I was foolish to think that I could face them after a few days of training. I’m sorry, Aries. Sorry I wasn’t a better teammate. Sorry I let you and your training down.

The guns fire. I smile. Nothing touches me. Without even the slightest loss of focus, I have guided each deadly laser into another gun. I demolish them all after one shot. Fire and metal billow through the room to mix with the remnants of the yellow haze. Everything swirls around me like I am in the eye of a hurricane.

Aries and I ball our fists. Neither of us seems to know what to do, so we just stand there in readied fight stances, listening to Perseus prattle on.
Cassandra
Why don’t you… get Dee back??? And start your plan?

He looks my way. There’s an apologetic gleam in his watering eyes before they flutter and close. As my hurried footsteps halt, the flash drive rips from his pocket and lands in Aquila’s palm.
Cassandra
Why did she have to choke him if she could just grab the drive?

Lyra is nuzzled against his chest, but she is glaring back at me with a sorrowful frown.

I wiggle my fingers, and his head flickers back and forth like I’m planting a host of gentle slaps against his face. He still doesn’t wake up.

never fully noticed how pretty she is. Her braided hair is coiled like a beehive atop her head. Her clothes consist of a Ninja Turtles T-shirt and a pair of navy-blue leggings. She has never looked more adorable. “Dee…I wish things could’ve been—” She lunges up on her tippy toes, and our lips touch.
Cassandra
Suuuper rushed and unbelievable
