I watch. I wait. Soon, she’ll be mine.



Emily McPhee has no idea how long I’ve been here.

Watching.

Her perfect little life—straight A’s, loyal friends, and that hopeless crush on the cop.

But he doesn’t see what I see.

She’s mine.

I’ve been patient. I’ve behaved.

But I’m done waiting. He won’t like it, but I don’t care.

She’s starting to feel me now—hearing things, sensing me.

She thinks it’s all in her head.

Then the fear I bring breaks her. It’s magical.

She ruins everything by offering for him to move in.

He thinks he’s her protector.

But I know her rhythms and her fears.

I know how she screams.

And soon, I’ll show her just how far I’ll go to keep what’s mine.

Forever.
