Ambushed
“My fears were so embedded in my subconscious mind that I was extremely disoriented when I woke up the next morning.
I just lay there motionless for nearly a minute while I tried to process what was wrong. Eventually I realized that I wasn't disoriented because of where I was waking up, I was thrown off because of how I was waking up.
Taggart wasn't yelling or stalking around the tiny room like a caged predator, he was sitting on his bed writing in a plain leather-bound journal. Not only that, I... wasn't getting any of the usual signs that alerted me to the fact that he was having a hard time controlling his beast. There was no unearthly hum of power in the air, his eyes were even their normal tired green rather than the hot yellow of his beast.
He looked over at me and gave me a sad smile as soon as he felt my gaze.
"I'm sorry, Adriana. I owe you an apology. When I agreed to train you I vowed that you'd be able to choose your own targets or no targets at all. I didn't mean to break that promise last night.MoreLess
