"You are late Hazel, it's almost time," Katrin said as she came running out of the stage looking exhausted. "I know. Thank you for covering for me" I thanked and ran to change into the outfit which I didn't even like a bit. I could hear DJ announcing my stage name. I took a deep breath and put on a mask that hides my half face from all the predators present here. With a hammering heart, I walked on stage. I'm never going to get used to it. People cheered for me as I walked on stage but my steps halted as soon as they met with cold forest green eyes. With a clenched jaw, he kept looking at me making my whole body go numb. His forest green cold eyes moved all over my barely dressed body and it made my heartbeat in fear. He looked at me as if he recognized me but I knew he wouldn't. I put the agitation I was feeling aside and focused on my performance as the crowd cheered for me. I gracefully completed my dance and as soon as I was done I ran backstage feeling fear. He didn't even once take his eyes away from me and it was giving me a bad feeling. Without changing I ran fast and grabbed my things. "Where are you going" asked Katrin in her confused voice. "I need to go," I said in a rush panic voice and ran outside while putting my coat to cover my almost naked body. I was still wearing my mask to hide my identity. In seconds I was near the exit but before I could go out a firm hand was placed on my wrist. Next thing I found myself pinned to the wall making my breath jagger as my eyes met with cold angry forest green eyes. The next words from his mouth pulled ground beneath my feet spreading bad chills to all my body parts. "You thought I won't recognize you"
