At the last possible moment, a strong arm shot out, wrapping around her slender waist and yanking her into a warm, solid embrace.

The car whizzed past, just missing her by inches.

Still shaken, Halsey looked up at the man holding her.

It was him.

The masked man she had been searching for finally stepped into her sight. He had appeared.

Halsey whispered, “It’s you.”

The man released her gently and said with a low, calm voice, “You were looking for me?”

She nodded. “Yes, I was looking for you.”

“Next time, watch where you’re going,” he replied coolly. Without another word, he turned and started to walk

Halsey hurried to follow. “Who are you? We’ve met before, haven’t we?”

“I don’t know you,” he said plainly.

She didn’t believe him for a second. “You don’t know me? Then why did you save me? Twice today–you saved me from those men in black and then again just now on the street.”

His voice was emotionless. “It was nothing. Just doing the right thing when I saw trouble.”

“I don’t buy it! We know each other. You’re someone I know.”

“Are you talking about someone you love?” he asked quietly.

The person she loved?

The question stopped Halsey cold for a moment. Her voice trembled slightly as she said, “He’s someone I used to love.”

The man was silent for a few seconds before responding, “I see.”

He sounded almost disappointed.

Halsey kept pace beside him. “Why do you always wear that mask? Are you trying to hide your face from me?”

He shrugged. “I’m not hiding from you on purpose. I’m ugly; I’m just afraid it’ll scare people.”

What?

He was so ugly that he might scare people?

No way!

Dwight had been the school heartthrob–many wealthy girls had thrown themselves at him, desperate to date him. He was incredibly handsome.

Halsey didn’t believe a word.

“Don’t say that. I won’t believe it unless you take off the mask so I can see for myself. Then I’ll know if you’re really who I think you are.

He kept walking. “Go home. Stop following me.”

Halsey stepped directly in front of him, blocking his path. Her beautiful almond–shaped eyes stared stubbornly into his. “I’m not going back unless you show me your face

He stopped walking and looked at her bright face. “I really am not the person you think I am.”

“Then show me your face.”

“Do you really want to see it?”

“Yes.”
