I heard a noise behind me, of that I was sure, and I swiftly turned around to see nothing. A cat crossed the dark path, and I sighed in relief. Just a little too fast.
A strong arm came from behind me and around my neck, almost choking me. I knew instantly who it was.
"Where is Rosalie Hale?" the menacing voice said. I knew that voice. I'd heard it before.
"Never!… I won't… tell… you." I choked out. I thought of sending him in a wall, like I knew I could, but since he was holding me, I would be knocked out as well.
"As you wish…" He chuckled.

Maybe he'd been right.
Maybe it was too late…
