Light the beginning

“Unease and fear struck my body without warning. An uncontrollable shiver ran down my spine. The wind picked up, and along with it went the leaves. Something about the boy made my stomach lurch. I couldn’t recognize him from anywhere. I wanted to run away, yet despite that wish, I couldn’t. I was pinned there. He was the predator and I was the prey. I knew for a fact that I’d never met him in real life, but he reminded me of someone… or maybe it was of something.” - from Light (Middle grade to Young Adult)
