(Karsten)
What the fuck did she just do?
Stupid and dumb, that's how I felt under her scrutinising gaze as she stared down at me with such pure, undiluted hatred.
Oh! She was smart, and I had underestimated her.
She called me here on purpose to expose my lies, to expose my identity.
She completely left me dazed. I never even realised that she had figured out who I was.
Flabbergasted, I tried to snatch the mask from her hand, but the damage had already been done.
She climbed down from me and scrambled away, putting distance between us.
That teasing smile she had going was replaced by pure rage as she held my mask like one holds a lizard by its tail.
"So this is your brilliant idea of fucking me. You singled me out on that draw, didn't you?" She snorted out a hysterical laugh.
Pain, such intense pain, lined her voice.
Slowly, I rose and tried to take a step towards her.
"Not another step, Karsten. I don't want you anywhere near me."
