Victoria stood very still for a moment, and it was evident from her face that she was terrified. She finally got the courage to speak, and when she turned around to look at him, he was gone. She took a deep breath and let out a sigh of relief.
She felt as if she had been released from death. As the night wind came, she felt cold, rushing through her. She touched her back, and she found that she was sweating all over.
She recalled his eyes, and how they were staring at her so intensely, she still felt nervous. The feeling was so strange that she thought she could have almost died. Her fate is in his hands. Why did he have such control over her?
Victoria got more curious about Stuart and wanted to know more about him, but lost all courage to seek any answers. All it took was one stare, and that was enough to threaten her life. If he followed through, she assumed that he would kill her.
