I leave Alana alone.
I donât want to, but we promised we would be discreet, and I have a job to do. So while the band rehearses or plays music on the tour bus, I focus on studying Trine.
She seems like a perfectly ordinary girl at first glance. Misha slings an arm around her shoulder and holds her close, smiling into her hair whenever he talks to her. He obviously adores her, but thereâs something else there. Somethingâ¦more protective.
I donât do much. I just watch her, waiting for her to show signs of possession. Thatâs my job. There are no signs of possession, not really, not that I can see. She just looks tired. I notice she spends more time sleeping than the rest of the band, like sheâs recovering from something.
And she does seem exhausted. Her cheeks are sunken in, there are bags under her eyes, the blood vessels in her eyes have popped and they go up toward her irises like vines.
But I get distracted by Alana. She mostly doesnât look my way. When she does, she smiles, her cheeks reddening. But sheâs careful and I donât think she wants the rest of the band to know, so I donât really engage her if she meets my gaze, no matter how much I want to.
And fuck, I really, really want to.
She wears these low-cut tops under her open jacket that make it hard not to stare at her. She brushes a strand of blonde hair behind her ear and looks up at me with dark brown eyes and my heart beats so fast in my chest, I have to remind myself that sheâs not doing it for me.
I listen to her talk to her friends or on the phone sometimes. I try not to pay attention to what sheâs saying, but itâs hardâthe tour bus is small and there isnât anywhere for me to go.
The first day is mostly travel. Weâre a few hours away from the first venue, an abandoned hotel next to a giant cliff on a tall mountain. It used to be all the rage in the 1920s, but itâs fallen into disrepair since then.
From what Javi told us, the people putting on his tour thought it would be the perfect place to start. Weâre staying overnight and then theyâre having a VIP show outside in the front yard. Itâs a beautiful, picturesque place, but Iâve never been there and Iâve heard plenty of stories about it being haunted.
The hotel has turned into a museum, the crumbling paint and moss on the walls covered by white paint. But the place is still fucking creepy, on top of an incredibly tall mountain, fog shrouding the building.
Itâs the kind of place I would normally avoid, when I know just how horrible itâs going to be there. But Iâm being paid for this, so I donât complain about it. I wouldnât even if I wasnât being paid for this.
Thereâs a part of me thatâs just curious. I want to
