transforms from vulnerable little "Lexie" into strong willed Alex. But will the darkness of the woods and the actions surrounding the people she loves ruin her completely?
Here’s a small snippet just so you can see what it’s like:
“What the hell is this?” I heard and turned to my left. Calum was standing in the middle of the hall staring at us. His jaw was clenched in anger, and I watched his hands ball into fists.
“Calum…wait a second" I said to him hesitantly as he stomped over and grabbed Michael by the collar. He slammed his body into the lockers next to me and I yelped as the loud crashing sound echoed.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing!” Calum yelled. His face was two inches away from Michaels and I watched as he wrapped his hand around his throat.
“Stop, Calum! Stop!” I yelled as I grabbed his arm, trying to pull him away. He yanked his arm away from me quickly, making me trip back and slip onto the floor.
“I’ll fucking kill you!” He yelled, spit hitting Michael in the face as he slammed him into the locker again. I sat on the ground looking up at them as I heard an ear-splitting scream erupt from down the hall. I turned to look for the source. Suddenly my heart started to race as I realized who’s scream it was and my eyes widened. “Ellie!” I yelled as I pulled myself off the floor. Calum and Michael’s eyes both followed the scream, and I began racing down the hall. I heard their footsteps following behind me as I sprinted, turning the corner to where the bathrooms were and saw Ellie’s body pressed against the lockers. A tall man towered over her, his hands wrapped around her wrists, pushing her further into the locker. I watched as he turned towards me and saw his dark eyes pierce through me, and a smirk emerge on his face.
