Secrets
My weary eyes roamed the crowd, wondering you it could be. It could be anyone. I lean against my car, looking preoccupied with my phone.
In reality, I was fiddling with my weapon of choice.
I heard as foot steps approached me. Looking up, I spotted a muscular young man walking towards me.
“I see you got my note,” he muttered so only I could hear.
“I am worried you didn’t fully uncover my secret. If you knew, you would be running away this very second.”
He chuckled. He didn’t believe me. But he was about to.
Eyes glowing, I looked him in the eyes. “_Kneel_.”
It was a command, and he sunk to his feet. He struggled but was powerless against the very force of my mind.
I leaned down and whispered in his ear. His body shook, overcome by fear. Now it was his turn to look at me with weary, frightened eyes.
“My only secret is what I do to those who don’t believe in power. My power.”
