“Just go home,” Enzo said. “I’ll see you at the final match.”
I felt my frown deepen. Why was he being so indifferent about this? It was clear to me that Ronan was up to something, but Enzo didn’t seem to believe me. I watched as he stalked away to the showers, then turned on my heel and stormed off toward the exit.
Just as my hand touched the door handle, I heard something. Something loud and abrasive. It wasn’t just one, but many: screams.
My eyes widened. I felt myself freeze momentarily, but then I gathered the courage to crack the locker room door open…
I immediately shut it when I saw the scene unfolding in the arena and began to hyperventilate, leaning my body weight on the door as my mind raced. Outside, there were three rogues attacking people. There may have been more; I couldn’t be entirely sure just from the split second I looked out there.
I opened my mouth to call for Enzo, but decided against it as that ran the risk of being heard, so I instead quickly bolted away from the door and ran to the showers.
“Enzo!” I said as I ran up to him, just as he was about to undress. He stopped and stared at me, looking confused, but his eyes widened as he saw the look of shock and fear on my face.

“Rogues.”
Enzo’s eyes widened even further.
