Oh god, what will he do to me?

I squeeze my eyes shut tighter.

Haven’t I known all along that this would happen sooner or later? There is no running away from Tiero. He swore to always find me and he has…

How though?How?

My mind spins out of control. Did someone at Freemont Security leak my whereabouts?

No, that can’t be it. Lex trusts them, and I trust Lex.

I’m not ready to face Tiero and his wrath.

This day had to come, but I thought I had more time. I need more time!

How will I protect our little peanut from the cruelty of his father’s world?

I take a deep breath in, preparing to face the music.

His scent hits me…

What on earth?

My eyes fly open.

Immediately, I’m sucked into a sea of warmth, then tossed into the vastness of the universe and swallowed up by a black hole, my world crumbling to dust.

Then stillness.

Time stops.

Peace and serenity fill me.

I’m home.

The thought startles me, and I shake my head to clear it.

But clear it of what?

Peace and serenity? No, I want to hold on to that.

I’m so confused.

Blinking a few times, the spell is broken.

All I see are his brown eyes, and they are fixed on mine.

Hang on a second…

They’re not hazel-brown. They’re a much darker, richer color… and they’re warm. So so warm.

Huh?!?

His scent registers again. It’s like an alpine forest.

I don’t understand.

Tingling all over, I push against his chest to move him off me.
