Lyn
It takes a very long time for Elias to finally return. I have already got ready for bed and crawled under my duvet on the sofa. He smiles softly when he sees me, gets ready as well and goes to bed.
"Sleep well Lyn," I hear his words before I sink into a deep sleep. I dream of David. He is verbally putting me down and telling me how worthless I am. He pushes me and tries to hit me several times, but he doesn't succeed, because a man in a black coat, with dark hair, an upright posture and broad shoulders stands in front of me and protects me.
I feel safe in his presence, more secure than I have ever felt anywhere.
Suddenly I wake up. I heard something. A noise. I sit up and search the darkness for the cause. I am almost scared to death when I notice that Elias is also sitting upright
