As Jaguar landed on her, a feral snarl ripped its way out of Elaina's throat, and she twisted backwards, through the air, throwing him off of her. "Let's not get too carried away here," she growled at him when she landed. She slipped farther down into a crouch and bared her teeth.
I can hold my breath, I can bite my tongue, I can stay awake for days if that's what you want - be your number one. I can fake a smile, I can force a laugh, I can dance and play the part if that's what you ask - give you all I have. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it...
But I'm only human and I bleed when I fall down. I'm only human and I crash and I break down. Your words in my head, knives in my heart. You build me up and then I fall apart, 'cause
I'm only human.
