An Escape Plan?

HAZEL -

"Don't scream when I remove my hand and let me explain why I wrote that note."

My eyes widen in alarmed recognition of the voice belonging to none other than Grigori.

So he was the author behind that ominous note!

I want to scream for help. Bev is a few doors down the hall.

Was she also in on it?

I fear what he might do next. For all I know, he might just end up splintering my neck right then and there. That is if he possesses similar skills as that demon cousin of his.

"Don't scream, I wrote that note for your safety." Grigori continues with underlined discretion.

My brows knit in confusion. Safety??

He seemed unprepared to harm me in the least bit judging from his careful tone of words. This only leads me to the haste conclusion that Bev is unaware.

I nod my head in agreement and he releases me from his grasp. I whirl around to pin him with a glare. He's dressed casually in sweatpants and a t-shirt when I've only ever glimpsed him In a suit and tie.

"Why?" I demand quietly.
