Anxiety creeps up my spine like dozens of spiders as the minutes drone by. It’s now when I feel practically useless, that the reality of the situation we’re all in finally hits me.
My old best friend, someone I grew up with and watched his varsity basketball tryouts, has been kidnapped by some crazy, vengeful shifters, and no one knows if he’s okay.
On top of that, the woman I fell in love with over the phone has gone into a scary, probably booby-trapped forest she doesn’t know anything about to rescue him. Roxanne Angelina Santos, someone who reassures me, likes watching documentaries and cartoons with me, makes amazing food for me, and even helps me feel safe in my apartment is no one I thought would get close to me, much less fall in love with me.
But…we’re dating.
