With my heart.

We’ve slowed now and I can’t shake the feeling of familiarity every time I look at the man beside me, the sense that I know him, though we’ve only just met. Officially anyway. He’s been unconscious the rest of the time, and the feeling is unsettling.

“Should… should you be back fighting with the others?”

“The others?”

I frown. “The other shadow beasts. Or are you still too weak?”

Or is this guy some asshole working for the Shadow King, and the only reason he seems familiar to me is that he’s in on all of this too? Maybe even leading me into danger?My stomach turns.

He stares at me for a moment, then laughs and the sound is so similar to Rayne’s that tears sting my eyes. “I’m not a shadow beast.”

What the hell does that mean? What does any of this mean?

My steps slow and my heart races. “Then, what are you?”

He stops and holds my gaze. “Do you really not recognize me?”

“What? You’re the injured shadow beast...”

But his only answer is another laugh. One that there’s no denying.

He has Rayne’s laugh. And Rayne’s eyes. “Rayne?”
