Morning came with another storm, but this one wasn’t so bad.

According to Brandon, who was always checking the weather on his cell, only three inches had dusted the town. Once the sun came out the streets would be clear. Not that a big storm would shut down Twin Pines. They were used to dealing with a hell of a lot more than three inches.

When Derek arrived to walk with Brandon to class, he couldn’t help but snicker as he said, “Like three inches of anything is worth getting excited over?”

Since most students lived on campus or could walk from their off-campus apartments, classes went ahead as scheduled even during blizzards. Rarely was a day called on account of snow. However, just because the town was used to dealing with massive amounts of the white stuff didn’t mean that Evan was. Confident in his ability to navigate his way around without sight, he became totally discombobulated in his orientation when he slipped and fell.

After brushing the ice and salt off his fanny, he had no idea what direction he was facing. Without the sun shining in his face, he couldn’t orient himself. For the first time in a long time, Evan panicked. But then he realized if he just waited a moment, the clouds would pass, and he’d be able to tell his direction by where the sun was. Or he could just follow the sidewalk in either direction and he’d know once he touched the building he encountered.

“Do you need help?” The voice was older, cultured, and terribly kind. “I would be happy to assist you.” If anything, the man sounded more compassionate than anyone Evan had ever heard. It was a voice that instilled immediate trust. As the man came near, Evan smelled a rich combination of tobacco, fine wine, dark chocolate, and bayberry.

Classy and subtle, the scent was something refined and elderly.

“Would you mind pointing me in the direction of the—” A cloth covered Evan’s face and as he drew a startled breath, Evan knew it was saturated with chloroform. A visual of the way the molecule was formed popped uselessly into his mind. Right now he didn’t need to know the chemical structure. He needed to know how to get away. Before his miraculous brain could formulate an answer, Evan slumped into the curiously helpful man.

“So young, so sweet, and so desperately in need of submission.” Evan would have argued, but his mouth wouldn’t work. He could barely get his legs to work. If not for this man holding him up, he would have melted down into a puddle.

“Come along, Evan. You and I will be so perfect together. We just have to dispose of Tyler first.”

Terror wrapped an icy fist around Evan’s heart and squeezed.

Drunkenly he walked beside the mysterious man, his confusion and fear growing with each step. Disoriented, Evan had no idea which direction they were moving, but he recognized the sound of a car door and the feel of a large backseat.
