I Will Never Leave You

Prologue

Her footsteps sounded off the walls of the alley. The sharp clacks against the pavement somehow conveyed a hurried sort of nervousness, but she didn't know why she was anxious. She wasn't used to closing the office down alone, but it was barely after dark - for earlier than usual. 

The bosses had let everyone off early for a holiday weekend, and she counted herself lucky. Still, something tonight was making her skin crawl. She shuddered against the cold and picked up the pace, grateful she had snagged a parking spot only a couple of blocks down from the office that day. Parking was usually the bane of her existence.

The mouth of the alley opened up just a few more steps away, and she hurried her pace to a jog, feeling just a little foolish. She was in one of the safest cities in the country; she had no reason to be so paranoid. Except maybe for HER. 

But why did she feel like she was being watched? Silly, silly girl. 

Nothing happened to anyone in this boring old place. 

When she reached the mouth of the alley, she stopped, looking around and breathing a sigh of relief. That was her mistake. 

It was the last breath she ever took.
