“Who are you?” I repeat. “What do you want with me?”
“The more important question is…who are you?” His baritone voice sends a chill across my neck. Goosebumps rise on my arms.
I shake off the sensation. “I am no one.”
It’s the truth. I am no one. Not any longer.
The man steps in front of me, the faint light coming from the hallway leaving him in shadows, his features indiscernible. He’s staring down at me. That much I can tell. He turns and closes the door, bringing complete darkness with it. My heart rate spikes. Please, not again.
A light flares bright. I blink against it. My vision clears, and I lock eyes with my captor. I suck in a breath.
Death is no stranger to me.
I’ve dreamt of Death from the time I was a little girl. No matter how many times I dream of him, though, I never see his entire face. Only his hell-fire red eyes glowing in the darkness. He doesn’t speak. He’s merely present.
Watching.
Waiting.
I told my mother about him the first time he appeared. She slapped me across the face. I never spoke of him again. The older I’ve gotten, the more frequently I dream of him. It’s as though he’s been preparing me for the day we meet in person.
Today is that day.
The man standing before me is Death.
He’s finally come for me.
