Theo stayed pressed into the narrow space of the room, barely breathing.
She had her back pressed against the wall due to the cramped up space, and the silver fabric pooled around her feet like moonlight trapped with her, shimmering faintly every time she shifted. Her heart was loud. Too loud. It thudded against her ribs like it wanted out.
She had been out there with Zeke moments ago.
And it had felt nothing less than magical.
Her heart was thumping. She was more excited for this than she knew, and she couldn't wait to get back on stage for their next scene.
Her fingers trembled as she curled them into the fabric of her dress. Then, Seraphina stirred inside her, low and tense, pacing in tight circles.
*They are alert,* Her wolf murmured, *Too alert,*
Theo swallowed. People were moving around the hall with purpose. The kind that wasn't scripted.
