Chapter 40 : My Haven

Haven’s POV

I am walking completely blindfolded, trusting the man behind me to guide me to the right place.

“Cruz, I don’t get where you are taking me,” I say, involuntarily reaching out and trying to feel for some kind of wall beside me.

“Now Haven,” he scolds gently, pulling my arm back to my side. “Where would the fun be if there weren’t any suspense?” I smile to myself and bump my hip into his hip, knocking him off to the side ever so slightly.

Cruz arrived ten minutes before eight o’clock and insisted that he take me somewhere, but insisted that I wear a blindfold. I agreed and slid on the blindfold, making sure to kiss my parents before leaving. Honestly, I still feel a bit on edge.

With Liliana’s threat still fresh in my mind, I can’t help but wonder if she has someone watching me every second of every day. The last thing I want to do is get Cruz into more trouble than he already is with his family.
