Chapter 12

I try to keep my breathing steady. Not wanting to alert Mason to the fact I’m awake or that I’ve seen him. I scrunch my eyes closed, too scared to keep looking at those eyes.

“He was right there,” I point with a shaky finger. Theo looks puzzled and slightly dazed. As he ‘scans the room. He checks the window and confirms it’s locked, then he checks any wardrobe and bathroom but finds nothing.

“Stay here, I’ll be right back,” he gives me a reassuring smile and picks up my room key before leaving. A few tense moments pass before Theo lets himself back into my room.

“I think it was a nightmare,” he smiles sympathetically.

“It wasn’t, I saw him. It was Mason,” I shake
