Selene's POV~
I could not move.
The file lay at my feet like a crime I had been caught with. The sound of the papers falling still rang in my ears.
Their eyes did not leave me.
Aeron stepped forward first. He did not speak. He only pointed at the chair in the center of the hall. His gaze was enough. It told me what to do.
My throat was dry. My legs shook. Still, I obeyed. I would not want to raise their suspicion more toward me.
Slowly, I walked to the chair and sat down. My heart beat so hard that I thought it would break through my chest.
The three of them moved around me. Like hunters circling prey.
Kael stood at my left. Luca at my right. Aeron straight in front. Their bodies closed me in, leaving no escape.
The air grew heavy. I could feel it pressing down on me. I could feel them pressing down on me.
