Celia stepped up beside me and took my hand in hers. “She will be safe, Oz,” she said, looking at his ebony wings. “And I’m sorry.”
“No looking back,” I repeated, the words caught somewhere deep in my throat.
“I’ll see you soon, new girl,” he said, flying down the corridor toward the gates, prepared to buy us time if needed.

About the Author
Amber Lynn Natusch is the author of the bestselling Caged, as well as the Light and Shadow series with Shannon Morton. She was born and raised in Winnipeg, and speaks sarcasm fluently because of her Canadian roots. She loves to dance and sing in her kitchen—much to the detriment of those near her—but spends most of her time running a practice with her husband, raising two small children, and attempting to write when she can lock herself in the bathroom for ten minutes of peace and quiet. She has many hidden talents, most of which should not be mentioned but include putting her foot in her mouth, acting inappropriately when nervous, swearing like a sailor when provoked, and not listening when she should. She’s obsessed with home renovation shows, should never be caffeinated, and loves snow. Amber has a deep-seated fear of clowns and deep water…especially clowns swimming in deep water.
