Something is terribly wrong. Edward knows best not to interrupt me while I am in the confinement of my room. And to barge in while he knows I am with Anastasia is even more out of the ordinary for him.
I quickly rush to dress myself. I turn over to face Anastasia that is startled just as much as I am. "My love, please wait here while I go attend to this matter."
"I am coming with you." she protests while gathering her clothes from the floor. "Just give me a second to get dressed."
"You will remain here, please," I insist. "I am not sure if there is any danger. I shall be back as soon as I can."
"Promise me you will call for me if you are in trouble?", she takes my hand and rests it against her chest.
"I will request your presence if need be," I assure her. "Now please get back underneath the covers, you still need to get some rest."
"Sebastian."
"Yes, my love?"
She looks at me with genuine concern in her eyes, "Please be careful."
