They quickly separated after Chris explained the situation, his worried expression making my heart race and my body shiver with fear. Had they found Octavia? What was happening? As Chris noticed me watching, he signaled me over.
“I’ll be right back,” I whispered to Selene and excused myself, pulling Evan along with me.
