"We've been looking for you."Adelaide felt a surge of unease as the girls closed in around her.

He had no idea what was wrong, or how to fix it.As he stood there, he saw Adelaide emerge from the shadows. She walked towards him, her eyes blazing with anger and hurt.

It was as if he had developed a blind spot, one that allowed him to tune out her presence completely.Adelaide tried everything to get his attention.

But Lucas would just shake her off, his expression cold and unyielding.Adelaide felt like she
