    You head further now until you’re almost back to where you started walking her home. You don’t look to the right. You don’t think about what Susie said. You don’t think about it. You don’t think about it. You don’t–

    You look right.

    Summary

    “Look,” Susie urges. “If you don’t want to, then go back now. Don’t do something you’ll regret.”

    But her feet won’t move. She doesn’t want to go back home because tomorrow she will have to meet the person she will be planning her wedding with. First comes marriage, and then all the dreadful things that come after it. All the duties a wife is expected to carry out.

    She shudders. I'm sorry, Kris.

    “No,” she murmurs, taking Susie’s hand. “I want to.”

    Desperate for freedom, Noelle decides to flee from her responsibilities as princess — and accidentally finds herself dragging along two others for the ride.

    Summary

    "We were so worried, we heard you—" Ragatha starts, and then looks up. She meets Jax's gaze dead-on, and goes silent. Tears brim in the corner of her eye. Her hand flies up to cover her mouth. He can't tell if the look on her face is relief or fear.

    Gangle's staring at him like she's seen a ghost. Pomni slowly raises to her feet, brows furrowed. She winces as every movement jars her wavering form.

    Cowered on the floor, panting, confused and disoriented, with everyone standing above him, taller than him… it reminds Jax of something deeply unpleasant. They're all staring at him. They're all seeing him.

    Jax knows they're not going to like what they see.

    His breath quickens until his head is spinning, and he feels like he's going to vomit. He forces himself upwards with a frustrated cry, swaying in place, and then turns and bolts towards his room as fast as he can.

    "NO!" Pomni screams.

    (or: pomni pulls jax back from the brink.)
