    --Z
    P.S. That is, if Jimmy doesn't mind.

    Liz looked totally insulted. 'Because...uh...library.'

    'Okay.' Zach threw up his hands. 'Point taken.”

    “Do you know what pain is, Cammie? It’s the
    body’s physical response to imminent harm.

    “It's not Cam's fault," Bex told her. "We rigged her bed so that if she gets up, I get an electric shock."

    "Liz designed it," Macey said, and Bex shrugged.

    "We told you we were taking precautions."

    Of course. Because at Gallagher Academy, "precautions" usually equals "voluntary shock therapy".”

    “So you're Zach." Townsend didn't even try to hide the judgement in his voice as he looked Zach up and down in some sort of silent but dangerous examination.

    Zach huffed but smiled. "so you're Townsend."

    The two of them stared for a long time, wordless. It felt like I was watching a documentary on the Nature Channel, something about alpha males in the wild.”

    “Abby must have been the one who found the safe house, because Townsend didn't like it.

    "The building across the street is under construction," he snarled as soon as we'd carried our bags inside.

    "The elevator has key card access, and I've hacked into the surveillance cameras from every system on the block," Abby argued. "We have a three-hundred-sixty-degree visual."

    "Excellent." Townsend dropped his bag. "Now the circle can see us from every angle."

    "Don't mind Agent Townsend, girls," Abby told us. "He's a glass-half-empty kind of spy."

    "Also known as the good kind," he countered.

    Abby huffed.”
