Aria felt a chill crawl down her back. She looked at Jared—and when she saw those eyes, then looked at her own body, she understood. Something bad was going to happen to her.
She instinctively started running.
Jared smiled. It was the smile of a predator.
And in a single jump, he caught her. He immobilized her before she could even reach for the emergency button.
Aria hadn't used it immediately. She still wanted to enroll in the Hunter Academy. She didn't want to quit like this. She thought that if she could somehow escape from him, she might still have a chance.
But she was wrong.
Jared was already Level 1. That meant he was a full-fledged Hunter. And that slow calculation ended up being Aria's biggest mistake.
Jared had a predatory look in his eyes. Aria shouted with all her strength, but Jared slapped her so hard that she went unconscious. He was just about to tear down her clothes when he heard a sigh behind him.
A chill ran down his spine.
Who was behind him?
