Aveline jumped in fright! The string of unsettling events that night had nearly driven her to the edge-she was on the brink of a nervous breakdown.
She quickly fumbled with her keys, desperate to get inside. But just as she managed to open the door, a hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder and shoved her into the apartment, the figure following closely behind.
"Ah!" Aveline screamed, struggling wildly. She grabbed a heavy ceramic cat figurine from the entryway table and swung it at her assailant.
The figurine was solid and heavy-definitely capable of doing some serious damage.
"Aveline." Lucas' deep voice cut through the chaos as he caught her wrist, his brow furrowing as he looked at her pale, panicked face. "It's me."
Aveline's hand froze mid-swing. Seeing Lucas' familiar, striking face, her breath came in ragged gasps, her chest heaving.
"What is wrong with you?" she shouted. "Why did you suddenly barge in? Why didn't you make a sound? Are you insane?"
She pounded on his chest with her free hand, the fear from moments ago still coursing through her. She had genuinely thought someone else had followed her in-someone dangerous-and for a split second, she believed she was about to die.
Lucas let her hit him, calmly taking the ceramic cat from her hand and placing it back on the table. "If I had announced myself, would you have let me in?"
"Get out!" Aveline yelled, her voice shaky with lingering adrenaline.
Lucas' expression darkened, though he didn't react to her anger. He had heard about what happened earlier that night, which was why he had come to check on her. It was clear she'd been badly shaken. He released her wrist and asked, "Why are you so scared?"
