ONE-HUNDRED-FIVE

SERAPHINA POV

I hear Lucas open the door and close it again before walking up behind me; he holds the clothes in his hand out in front of me. I take them slowly but once I have a hold of them he wraps his arms around me and buries his nose into my neck, taking a deep breath; I tense, waiting for him to do more like Leo would have done, but he does no more than just breathe in my scent. After a couple more deep breaths, he lets me go and I run into the bathroom, shutting the door behind me.

I put on the shirt and pants; they are a little big but that was fine. I did what I could with my hair and then went back into the bedroom to find Lucas gone. I walk over to the door and have a listen. I hear a faint scream and know exactly where he went. So really, he is no better than Leo unless he lets Leo have control back, which means I need to be on guard. I move away from the door and back to the window. It only opens a little bit, allowing a small amount of fresh air
