He hates her.

He hates what she did to him, how she reduced him to a pile of anger and repression when she left. He hates how she's always on his mind, how a teenage romance is more important to Jimmy than a lifelong friendship.

He hates how, no matter what he does, Jimmy still loves her.

And he hates that, after seven years, Abby Mills has come back—and she's brought death to them all.

With a dark scowl and jealousy in his eyes, he won't let her back in the Candlewick.

Never.

Shane Pierce can be very possessive.
