He was already here, watching her. For how long, she didn't know. Even though her sight was hampered by the dark, she was sure something moved off to the side. She squinted. Her eyes would not adjust to the darkness any better than they already had. What did he want? Why me? Will it be different from the last time he entered the room? Bowing her head, she said a prayer, hoping there would be no repeat. There was movement again. She knew this, of course, because he had broken the beam of light that peeked in through the top of the door. Where was he? Suddenly, her skin was on alert. The hair on her arm sounded the alarm. She knew where he was. He was standing right next to her.
