Something was wrong. Very wrong. He might not know Violet on a personal level, but he has heard enough of the stubborn, fiery, purple head and this was not just like her.

"Violet," he said sharply, and grabbed her shoulders firmly, forcing her to meet his eyes. "This isn't you. What's happening to you? Tell me, what is wrong?"

Violet blinked up at him, her eyes glassy and filled with an intensity that made his stomach churn. Whatever was going on, it wasn't natural.
