Chapter 133: What They Shouldn't Be Doing

Hold on! Before you read this chapter, please listen to "Beautifully Unfinished" by Ella Henderson. The song is highly recommended for this chapter and if this book were a movie, it would be our theme song. Thank you so much!

He squeezed her neck slightly and she flinched, the smirk that tugged his lips to the side suddenly making her feel like she walked right into his trap. And instead of being frightened, Islinda was electrified.
