Anew

48

Tristan stared at himself in the bathroom mirror again, unable to calm his nerves.

His gut churned with worry.

All he’d wanted to do tonight was get some sleep—some peace from his torment. And now that Scarlet was only two flights of stairs above him, he finally had the physical relief he’d sought out.

But there was no way sleep would come tonight. Tristan’s gut churned with worry. Someone had come after Scarlet. Someone had walked into her room….

Tristan wanted to scream.

Letting out a frustrated sigh, he left the bathroom and paced his large bedroom, his fear mounting with every step.

He felt helpless.

So much for sleep.
