 Salinger grunts, but I don’t waver from his gaze. I know men like this man. And I know the second I look away, he’ll have the upper hand.
   “Why today?” I ask.
   He taps his fingers on his knee, then finally says stoically, “She’s asked to meet you.”
   Salinger tenses beside me.
   “Who?” I ask, confused.
   The Director purses his lips. “The woman who created all this.” He glances at Salinger and there’s a silent conversation between them, one I can’t decipher. “The creator of the Lottery.”
   Salinger mutters a curse under his breath as his father pulls out a black blindfold.
   I glance at the two men hoping for some clarification.
   “Would you like to do the honors, son, or should I?” The Director smirks, his gaze trailing down my body, then back up to my face.
   Salinger’s fingers tighten around mine, and with a heavy breath, he finally looks at me, and what I see in his eyes scares me even more than the man sitting across from us.
   “What’s going on?” I ask when he takes the blindfold from his father.
   “You have to put this on.”
   “Why?”
   “Trust me, Tia.” Familiar brown eyes beg me to comply, but I can see my own fear mirrored in his gaze.
   I swallow hard, then finally nod.
   “Who is she?” I whisper. Who is the woman that could cause Salinger to tremble?
   The last thing I hear him say before the world goes dark is, “My mother.”
