The town is very friendly for the most part. Everyone knows everyone, or has heard of everyone. Despite its perfect façade, there lurks evil that waits to cause mayhem to the perfect, peaceful town. The good and the bad lurks within the hearts of its citizens, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
The park is silent; a few couples walk around the town square holding hands. The young lovers smile and laugh, looking around the square, searching for any supernatural activity.
Their young excited eyes glance quickly at the hugePeter Saintstatue wide-eyed.
Sofia Rose’s clear violet eyes zoom in close to the statue. She narrows her eyes. The strange, cold power surge reaches out to her, and a cold chill spreads throughout her body.
Sofia Rose shivers, looking away. She runs her hands up her arms, and jumps from her sofa. She walks over to the window. She extends her arm, and her small hand pulls at the navy blue drape to close the window.
“I hate that statue! I wish they’d remove it. It’s horrid. I don’t see anything saint about Peter Saint!”
Sofia Rose walks over to the fireplace. She leans down to grab the firewood, and pulls the black steel wire screen back. She tosses the firewood inside, starts the fire, and closes the screen. Very slowly she turns around and grabs the remote control to turn on the huge flat screen television.
“It’s Friday, but I’m going into the office in the morning. I need to find out what’s happening. I’m not going to allow the unknown forces to pull me down!”
She walks over to the sofa, moves her feet to slide the sexy black heels off, and sits down onto the sofa, sliding her long legs up to curl under her.
“Damn it, it’s over. I didn’t realize how late it is.”
She sighs, extends her right arm to pull at the throw blanket that drapes over the sofa. She pulls it up around her legs.
“The Bartz Dynasty immensely coveted bachelor was seen exiting his San Diego Office with a beautiful platinum blonde model. Is it possible that Nickolas Bartz is back on the market? Is it possible that this young blonde beauty is the one that will ultimately capture the elusive hot Bartz? What do you think, Mary?” asks Betty, the late night news anchor. She looks wide-eyed at Nicolas Bartz’s motionless image on the screen.
“There is a vast range of speculation as to why he’s in the States. He’s been in Europe for the last few years and it’s been a while since the magnate allowed himself to be seen,” replies Mary, nodding. She licks her lower lip.
Sofia Rose’s eyes widen and she chews her lower lip, raising her finely arched right eyebrow. Her heart stirs, jumps, and starts to race.
“Oh shit, is that the Nicholas Bartz? The Bartz Incorporated CEO for the Bartz Bank? I’m in deep shit. Is he coming over to the bank…like soon?”
Hell, but that man is amazing. No, he’s incredible because I’m feeling him, and that’s never happened.
Sofia Rose inhales deeply. She shudders, shaking her head, and she closes her eyes. She moves her hands up to her chest to try to control her thundering heart.
“Fuck, that’s unreal! My heart beats for him. Hell, this is fucked up!”
