Who did she think she was?! A new kind of fury slammed into him. He didn't notice how Daniel sank to the ground as he turned to Seraphina instead. She backed away from his look and that angered him more. Now she was suddenly afraid? “What? You want my hands on you instead?” He held her shoulders and swung her around, her back hitting the car. Her jade-green eyes

He reduced the volume even as his gaze turned back to Seraphina’s serene face.The same Sage?He wondered as his finger hovered on the connect button.With just a click he could find out if she was playing him after all.The call disconnected and he stared at the phone a moment longer.He didn't believe in coincidence, and people in Aurion didn't casually call themselves Sage.Still, he wondered if he was just projecting.
