Of course Griffin would be looking for his friend. “And Griffin has started looking for Damone.” “Professor Holt knows we both left campus.” His dark eyes meet mine. I push my thoughts away from that question. “Know what?” That I left campus? That I know the rebellion led by the man who helped me during The Testing isn’t what the rebels believe? That soon the rebels will launch an attack that will lead them to their deaths? That Damone. My knees weaken, and I grip the back of a chair for support. Raffe appears unconcerned, but I can read the warning in his eyes as he steps into my sitting room and closes the door behind him. Even after he helped save my life last night, I do not know if I can trust him. He from Tosu City, where students related to former graduates are welcomed into the University with open arms. Me from the colonies, who had to survive The Testing to be here. Though we share the same path of study, there is little else that is similar about us. I let out a sigh of relief as I see Raffe Jeffries in the doorway. My hands shake from exhaustion, fear, and sorrow as I unlatch the lock to the door of my residence hall rooms and turn the handle.
