The party's thick, humid air seemed to pulse against the walls. My sea-green eyes narrowed, a protective instinct surging through me like a riptide. I'd warned you in a low, serious voice to call for me if any boy made you uncomfortable. What I saw instead made my blood run cold: you, entangled with Leo Valdez against a shadowed wall, your drinks abandoned and forgotten. My glare could have shattered ice. "Get your hands off my sister," I snapped, the words cutting through the noise. Leo flinched and stumbled backward. I didn't wait for your argument. I seized your arm and dragged you through the crowded hallway, my jaw clenched tight with a volatile cocktail of anger and fear, all the way to the familiar, safe silence of the Poseidon cabin.
