"And Andrei?"
He looks over his shoulder at me. "Once I leave this room, I will locate Andrei and ensure he is not taken from the academy. He’s my responsibility and the guy is slipping closer to the edge."
The world crashes down on me, and I’m on the verge of crumbling to the floor again. Tobias catches my arm as I stumble towards a chair, and he helps me sit.
The tears surge as exhaustion and emotion rise to roll over me like a tsunami. I’m pulled under, gasping for breath through my sobs, as again my world is drowned in the chaos. I’m cursed and everybody who gets close to me at the academy suffers.
Tobias stares down at me in alarm as I slide from the chair and onto the floor, curling my knees tight against my chest and gripping my hair. Pulling. Reminding myself this is reality.
"Maeve." With my arms across my ears, his voice is muffled and my sense dulled.
My whole body shakes as I’m wracked by sobs and I lash out as Tobias attempts to help me sit back on the chair. "I hate this! Call me immature. Call me naive, but I can’t live this life."
"You don't have a choice, Maeve," he says. "You never had a choice. Nobody did."
I gulp in air, aware how childish and selfish I sounded. Like Andrei never had a choice. Jamie. Even Ash and Amelia. All our futures are out of our hands.
And now I need to put my life in the hands of a man who murdered witches. The man who had a choice.
