章 47: Chapter 47

I force myself to trust him, walking down the hallway slowly. Deep in thought, I wonder what exactly Caleb wanted to talk to Bryson about. Everything seems so mysterious now, cloaked in secrecy.

Everything went through a complete and total change, a 180 degree turn of behavior in that extremely hot classroom. Why did he send me away?

A golden vision troops to meet me just as the bell rings, people coming out of the classrooms and almost completely stopping at the sight.

Such beautiful, shiny gold hair, not one person has hair even close to that color in the entire school. Even Britney's voluptuous blond hair pales in comparison to this man.

I sigh as Jim waves at me, knowing exactly what will come next.

Great. Another round of whispers to pass among my classmates.

"Berenice!" he calls, as if waving isn't enough, "We have to go!"

He finally reaches me, putting his handsome face near my ear. Shivers run up and down my arm as he touches my arm.
