Chapter 45

• Second Skin
• I’d been locked in Alex’s bedroom for a good twelve hours now. Someone brought me lunch but I couldn’t eat it. The room was too high up for me to jump and the door was too solid to break down. I nearly paced a rut into the room before I finally collapsed on the bed. My only chance was when someone came in with food and I suspected that would be Alex with dinner. I could defend myself but fighting Alex was asking too much. My mind was dried up well.
• The door rattled softly for a second. I thought it was the window and stared back out the window. I had to find a way out of this room. I wasn’t going to be a prisoner. The door rolled inward though the other side was dark and quiet.
