Steady footsteps were muffled by the soft, thick carpet later that night. Alex had just entered Abi's room and as expected, the girl was already on her bed, sound asleep. 

The man walked closer like a phantom and stood there staring at her. It seemed that she was too tired that she didn't even bother to put on her pajamas as she still had her bathrobe wrapped loosely around her.

The room was brightly lit but the darkness shrouding Alex was making the entire room look dim. He was a completely different Alex than the Alex that Abi spent the entire day with. No, if Abi could see him right now, she would immediately have thought about that night in the garage where she first met him, when she first saw his ice cold eyes that were glimmering with impending danger that had chilled her more than the freezing temperature that night.
