Chapter 25

• EASING THE TENSION
• I hug my gym wear to my chest as we get out of his car in front of this three-story building somewhere I don't know. I am so new in this city, so even if this hot guy is taking me into a slaughterhouse, I wouldn't know until I'm inside it. Meh! I don't think he would do that, though. Part of me is warming up to him, and I feel like I can trust him even just a little bit. He is anything but an assassin or a mafia member.
• The only thing freaking me out right now is this fear or paranoia that I can't control. I have been awfully quiet throughout the drive, and now that we are here, I don't know. I don't know why I do not trust that this decision is mine. Anyway, I follow his long strides inside the marble-floored building with aerobic signs everywhere.
