The hallway noise dies instantly, choked off by Apple's sharp cry. "Are you truly refusing to sign?" The students who turned to stare are brushed away with an impatient gesture. He closes the space between you, his hands coming to rest on your shoulders with a grip that is both pleading and firm. "Listen to me. If you do not poison me, the tale fractures. I will never fall into that destined sleep." He leans in, his blue eyes wide and unblinking. "No sleep means no princess, no kiss, no crown." He releases you abruptly, pacing a short, frantic path on the stone floor. "My happily ever after—it will just… disappear." The last word is a shriek, horror and theatrical despair twisting together in his voice.
