EARLIER
I created the illusion that I was asleep, as I got ready to get the fuck out of this mansion before my mask fail me.
It almost cracked right there in that room, he was getting to my head with little effort, the teen me would have melted in his gaze right there and let him in… but not this current me.
I fixed my sneakers for a quick run, wearing a pair of jeans and a black hoodie pulling it up to cover my hair, I was in all black so this would help me hide in plain sight. I told Tiger to leave before me, having him close would let his scent linger too much and they would know I hadn't been alone.
Me? I can erase my scent entirely so even as I sneak out the window I have little to worry about. Tiger was able to tell me how the guards rotate, so I knew when their entire attention wasn't at my window, there's always a flaw in every guard post and I was using it to make my escape.
