The bright sun and noise of the city raked against my nerves as I walked through the parking lot. A hollow feeling grew inside me with every step I took and I knew I needed to get someplace private before I completely broke down. “Stop.” Max called, following me out into the parking lot. I changed direction and walked around the side of the café in a desperate attempt to lose him in the midday crush of people on the sidewalk. Max caught up before I made it to the street and with a gentle hand on my arm he pulled me to a stop. I tore my arm from his grip, not wanting to be touched, especially not by him. I refused to look at him, afraid if I did I would unleash my power and roast him alive. It took every ounce of control I had to keep my power quiet. “What do you want?” I asked, ashamed of the pain in my voice. “I told you. I want to give you a choice.” “Like you just did with my friends? Because it sure didn’t feel like a choice.”
