**NOLAN'S POV**
I watched as Addie rose to her feet, intent on greeting the people that were about to walk into the room. She was just playing the gracious host, I knew that, but I also knew that I felt like something was off. The air around me, the way that it touched my skin, it all spoke of an impending doom. And that hadn't happened until just recently. Not until there was that voice in the hall.
After just a fraction of a second, I rose from my chair as well. It would be best if I was right there with Addie, though I didn't go to stand right next to Addie, not yet. I knew that Ullerby would be there with her. And not only that, but Orson and Hunter, both sensing the same things that I had, were standing just behind Addie. They could reach out and pull her out of danger if they saw something coming toward her. They were close enough for that.
