Standing with his back to the door is a tall dark-haired man surveying the surroundings. Hands in his pocket looking as if he is master of all he surveys she anxiously waits for him to face the door.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(21 21 21 1)>At last he does!</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(21 21 21 1)>She staggers backward almost losing her balance as she looks into the handsome face of a familiar-looking stranger at her door. The doorbell rings again; this time followed by impatient banging. Trembling she moves forward still unsure if she should open the door. However that decision is taken completely out of her hands. With a loud bang the door crashes in.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(21 21 21 1)>Eyes wide with fear she freezes in place as the stranger's long legs brings him closer and closer.
