Time is running out. One of us is in danger, and we have less than twenty-four hours to change their fate. If we fail, it won't just be one future on the line-it'll be all of ours. But we can't ask for help; no one can know about this. Not even Professor Grendel.

Acting now is the only choice, but it's hard to think clearly when my heart's at stake. The feelings I tried to bury are still there, raw and unshakable. Losing focus isn't an option. I need to pull myself together before my demons tear me apart.

What's worse is that I'm going to have to work with an enemy to save an ally.
