Capítulo 30: Spider

He sent her a sheepish smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners. But Leticia just kept staring, her expression unreadable. Really? He wants to abduct her? She thought, her mind still racing from the way he'd grabbed her.

"Are you that surprised to see me?" He asked, his voice low and smooth. "You look pale right now." He took a step closer, his smile faltering for a moment.

Leticia's heart raced as she took a step back, her opal eyes fixed on his. She glanced around the hall and thankfully, they were the one ones around. She grabbed his hand and pulled him to the nearest room and locked the door behind them.

She felt a bit at ease so she turned to him. He was smiling faintly,looking handsome in his shirt and pants. His auburn hair was neatly trimmed making him look prim as usual.

"I...I wasn't expecting you, Manuel," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper. She admitted to herself guiltily, She's almost forgotten about him.
