Forget tomorrow for an hour and live. It could be your last party, sister.”
    I closed my eyes to take in her words, but when I opened them, my body went stiff. Isaac was drinking in the middle of a few sentinels. My stomach clenched at how handsome he looked in tight black jeans and his customary boots. A simple grey t-shirt hugged his muscles. I frowned and peered closer, wondering what it was about him that looked different, until I realised his blond hair had been dyed black. However, it wasn’t him that grabbed my attention, it was the tall blonde, lithe girl, hanging on his every word that made something strange happen to my insides. She giggled at something he said, and he turned to look at her and smiled back. Just as I was about to close my eyes and cut them out, he leaned into her and kissed her.
    Bullet, sensing my sudden change, rested her chin on my shoulder and looked to see what had captured me. She sighed before she spun me around to face her. Her eyes were narrow and probing. “Please don’t tell me you feel something for Isaac.”
    I shook my head, but the blush that heated my cheeks outed my lie.
    She closed her eyes for a second and dragged in a breath. “Bloody hell, Shadow. You can’t go there. For one, he’s our commandant, and for two, Isaac doesn’t do relationships. He fucks. That’s it.”
    I lowered my eyes. I had been telling myself the very same thing for the last three weeks. Yet, I had caught him looking at me slyly, a distant look in his eye and a longing on his face. Once or twice, during the times we had trained alone, I knew he had come close to kissing me but he’d backed off, mumbling something about my age.
    Bullet grabbed my arms, her grip fierce as she shook me. “Shadow. Isaac is a mean bastard. He is known for fucking you once then turning his back on you. You think that screwing him will give you a better chance in here?”
    My mouth fell open at her accusation. “What? No!”
    Mouse had come to join us and her eyes were wide when she figured out what we were talking about. Bullet glanced at her then a cruel smirk contorted her pretty face. “Mouse will tell you!”
    I stared from Mouse to Bullet, trying to tell myself that she didn’t mean what she had insinuated. But when Mouse blushed and looked away, my jealousy over the blonde bitch with Isaac was nothing compared to how I felt towards Mouse.
    Bullet made me look at her again, but this time the sadness that covered her face brought tears to my eyes. “Isaac will never love you, Shadow. I’m sorry I sound so cruel but you need to learn what he’s like. He’ll fuck you, most definitely, but he will never hold any feelings towards you. Ever.”
    Her blunt words hit me hard. Taking another look towards Isaac I found him in the blonde’s embrace, his mouth moving hungrily on hers. He opened his eyes and caught me looking. His brow furrowed before he pulled away from her. She stared at him quizzically before she followed his line of sight. Her eyes narrowed on me before a cruel smile filtered across her face.
    “Who’s that?” I asked Rogue when he meandered over to us.
    He looked across and I didn’t miss the way his body stiffened when his eyes found the object of my question. “Fuck!” he hissed. “What the hell is she doing back?”
    Panther huffed. “Finished her latest assignment in record time apparently.”
    “Who is she?” I asked again, my mouth moving but my gaze fixed on Isaac while he stared me out.
    “Becca.” Rogue grated out the name with a tone full of hatred. “She’s one of the assassins. She’s been in France on a contract.”
    Mouse shook her head at me furiously, her hand sliding across her throat. It was a warning. And one I took heed of if my friends felt the need to alert me.
    Rogue looked between Isaac and me, his eyes hard. Suddenly, he slid his arm around my shoulder and turned me around. As I looked at him to question what he was doing, he pushed his mouth to mine and
