Kylie rushed over, shooting nervous, fearful glances at Finn while trying to yank Tess back.

Finn froze for a second, then his face darkened as he snapped back to his senses. He reached out without thinking–only instead of pulling Tess away, his hands automatically tugged her behind him, shielding her with his body.

Tess did not look much better. Her hair was a mess and the white mask she’d been wearing to hide her scar had fallen off.

The scar had faded some, but up close, it was still plain to see.

Her wrists were pinned as Finn pulled her behind him, but her eyes stayed sharp and guarded, locked on Nadine and Kylie.

Kylie finally managed to grab hold of Nadine just as Nadine snapped out of her daze. Her heart sank as she caught a clear look at Tess’s face.

She could not believe it.

Nadine was still reeling from the slap, but her rage quickly flared back up.

Her eyes were wide and red as she glared at Tess.

“Tess! How dare you hit me!”

Before Kylie could react, Nadine suddenly lunged at Tess, nails out like claws, aiming straight for the scar on Tess’s cheek.

Her eyes were full of venom–she really wanted to ruin Tess for good.

Finn’s eyes narrowed and he stepped forward without a word.

Nadine was too fast. Since Tess’s wrists were trapped, she could not dodge. So, she braced for the pain.

However, instead of sharp nails tearing her skin, she heard the muffled smack of a hand hitting fabric and a man’s low grunt above her head.

Tess opened her eyes in disbelief.

Before she could even process it, Finn’s voice rang out, low and cold, “Nadine, do you really have to fight with a lunatic?”

Ha.

A lunatic?

Tess’s eyes went empty and dark again. The only sign of emotion was the bitter smile tugging at her lips.

She did not move or flinch. It was just like she had not just been slapped or Finn had not just stepped in for her.

The shadow over her head pulled away, but before she could slip free, her wrists were grabbed tight again.

This time, Finn clearly did not trust her not to bolt. He squeezed her wrists so hard it felt like he would snap her bones if she moved.

Tess tried to yank free, but he held on tight. She shot him a sharp, stubborn glare.

Finn’s eyes dropped to the fresh red mark on her cheek.

Then his voice cut through the air, calm but cold enough to freeze her blood.

“Go apologize to Nadine.”

Apologize.
