Lysa Breakfast was always a quiet affair, with the soft clinking of silverware and the occasional sips of coffee and us talking and laughing at our end, being the only sounds at the table. But this morning, there was a different energy that seemed to fill the room. Tori sat at her end looking over every once and awhile. But every time I looked at her, I could see a hint of longing in her eyes. She had her emotions on lock down today, trying her best to hide how she truly felt. I knew that my words this morning had hit her hard. I had inadvertently revealed that I knew about her mate's bond with Jace, and that he was feeling rejected. But I couldn't help but feel guilty for showing my hand too early. Now, even without Vance touching me, I couldn't get a read on Tori's emotions. Ever sin
