He watched me in silence.
“I knew you’d be scared,” he said, softly now. “I can feel it in your soul. You can’t lie to me.”
I didn’t speak.
I couldn’t.
Then, before I could blink again, the room shimmered—not really, but the air around him shifted.
In seconds, his form morphed. His cracked, ghostly features faded away, replaced by something else—something unreal.
He was still him… but now beautiful. Beautiful in a terrifying way. His hair was dark and swept back, his eyes burned a molten red, and his lips curled in a knowing smirk. A deep red pendant hung from his neck, glowing faintly like it was alive too.
