The moment Jean realized who it was, she shot out her free hand and grabbed the man by the collar.
“Why the hell would you-”
But before she could finish, the pressure holding her down suddenly released.
The man let go.
Jean immediately turned and, by feel, found the light switch and slammed her hand down on it.
The lights flicked on.
The office was finally illuminated again.
And Jean could finally see who she was dealing with.
The man had already retreated to the couch. He sat with his eyes lowered, lids half–closed, though even like that, she could make out the darkness in his
gaze.
His skin was pale to the point of being cold–toned, like ice. The aura he gave off was heavy, guarded–thick with tension.
“Hector?” Jean squinted at him, saying his name softly.
The one who’d been hiding here and attacked her-
It was Hector.
Samuel’s patient.
Now, with Samuel nowhere in sight, Hector was the only one in the room.
And…
Something about him wasn’t right.
Jean couldn’t quite put her finger on it, but something felt off.
She stepped a little closer, cautious. “Hector?”
His shoulders gave a slight twitch.
Then Jean saw his eyes slowly lift.
Those cold, starless eyes locked onto hers–quiet, void–like, and piercing.
Inside them, Jean saw a storm–chaos, restraint, and streaks of bloodshot red.
She sucked in a sharp breath.
He’s not in his right mind.

Still… what kind of illness was this?
It was… intense.
What the hell?
