I could tell that Skylar and Mia didn't need me to stick around, so I headed off to the kitchens after saying hi to Mia. It worried me a little that she was here, after all, it seemed everyone was being drawn here. I wondered if Skylar had something to do with Leon's plans, and regretted not asking Tessa what she'd found out.
Once I got to the kitchen, I wondered why I'd bothered--I wasn't really hungry, more bored.
Suddenly I heard a footstep behind me, and I whirled around, one hand going to my whip.
