Chapter 18

“Neah, we will be returning to Moonshine tonight!” 1

I feel my stomach drop. He was returning me. He finally realised that I was no good. My eyes close and I feel my breath catch in my throat. I should have been like the others Raven had told me about. I should have thrown myself at him. I should have tried harder. I shouldn’t have accused him of stuff. 2

I feel his rough fingers on my chin as he tips my face up. “Neah, open your eyes.” 1

I keep them squeezed shut. 1

“Neah, I am not returning you.” 7

Continuing to keep my eyes squeezed tight, I didn’t believe him. I knew it was going to happen eventually. 3
