Lydia woke with a start.

Someone was in her room. She couldn’t make out any human shapes since it was raining heavily and there was no moonlight. But she could feel the presence in the big wide bedroom.

And she could hear her own fast breathing.

She pulled the covers up to ward off her fears. “Who’s there?”

Nothing.

The rain fell in a continuous drone, muffling any noise that might seem different. When had the storm approached? And how had she slept through that and someone entering her room? Maybe she’d just been dreaming.

Just to be safe, Lydia searched for the phone on the bedside table. There was a red button for emergencies. Lulu had shown it to her and stressed that she should touch it if she felt in danger.

She reached for the button, but a strong arm pushed her hand away. Her breath caught and a cold wave of fear rushed through her system. She tried to speak, but no words would come.

“I wouldn’t call anyone just yet.”

“Alexandre?” She recognized the cultured voice of the butler. She almost wanted to giggle—they could actually say the butler did it. But she couldn’t muster even a scared chuckle. She swallowed, prayed, tried to think. Tried to stall him. “Alexandre, is everything all right?”

“No,” the man holding her said. “Everything is not all right. You’re a very pretty woman, but you know too much. You’ve seen too much. I hate to do this…but beware the wolf in sheep’s clothing.”

Lydia watched as he raised a pillow in the air, and she knew right then that she would die if she didn’t do something quick to help herself. If she could just make it to the French doors and then the porch, she could trip the alarm system. She had to do something, right now.
