The message from my Master had come at the worst possible time.
My phone buzzed just as I sat at my desk. "Urgent. Come now."
Since my Master knew I had problems with reading words, he never sent lengthy messages that would make it difficult for me to read.
Just as I was wondering what the problem was, because he had never requested to see me during school hours, never interrupted my daily routine, except in cases of life-or-death issues or when something truly important had happened.
Almost immediately, Rhett had called me with news of Charis's arrest, and it was spreading through the school like wildfire.
By the time I arrived at her class, with Slater behind me, the classroom was crowded with students peeking inside, trying to see what was happening.
I remembered seeing blood when I walked in and saw how distressed Charis had been.
