When Delphine and Damien returned, Vivian was still waiting with Tobi. When Damien went out for a run, she was still there. “Okay, go now. The charm will keep you invisible. When you reach Delphine’s room, you know what to do.”
“And you’re sure it’s going to work?”
“Yes. Now enough with the questions. Go!”
“Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Delphine was just about to unzip her gown when she noticed something behind her, rather someone sneaking up behind her. Except she couldn’t see a face, couldn’t see a body either, it looked like a ghost—she thought it was a ghost. With a scream, she raced to the door, running out and slamming the door behind her quickly. She pressed her ears to the door, listening for any sound but when she heard nothing, she relaxed. “Are my eyes deceiving me?” she wondered. Delphine couldn’t help but think the past attempts to kidnap her were making her see things. She also didn’t know how she was going to explain to Damien that she saw a ghost. “He would think I’m crazy,” she muttered. “I must be seeing things.” She opened the door slowly, letting out tiny whimpers, eyes closed, fingers crossed.
“So, do you want to kiss me or not?” a voice asked, in a sort of dry and tired tone.
“Fuck!” Delphine screamed. “Who are you? I swear if you don’t tell me, I’ll scream.”
