Leslie was raised solely by her loving, but mysterious mother, Sheryl Locks. They seemed to be all each other had in the whole world, until Leslie was 18, and her mother was killed in a fiery car accident. The young woman felt absolutely alone--until she realized... she wasn't.
A stalker emerged and began dictating her life. For 8 long years, she lived in his command. Terrified, threatened, and no way to find out what was going on in her life, she became a robot. Living where ever HE wanted her to, doing whatever HE said when his letters came. She could feel him watching her, constantly. She never knew what to expect; she was anxious, scared, started having panic attacks, and was always looking over her shoulder. Leslie tried to live a normal life--school, work, friends--but bad things followed her, and so did HE.
Now, she is 26 with a career, apartment, and cat. It's been two whole years since the stalker has made any contact... until she receives an email. Her life spirals out of control. This time, he wants to make an appearance. This time, he wants her to come with him. This time, she begins to unravel a web of secrets, lies, death, and more!
Will Leslie ever find out who HE is? Will she ever find out who SHE really is?

Untangled
I slammed the table loudly and groaned out of pain. Not only the pain from the headache I was having right now. But also from the memories flooding my mind as well. I was slowly remembering everything. "I hate you!"I shouted seething from anger as I gritted my teeth to stop myself from attacking him. He was really tempting me and I knew it wouldn't be long before I would attempt to pull his face apart and rip out his throat. "Not more than I hate you Alexander Norman. Trust me." He said emphasising on the name that seemed so foreign to me yet that was my real name. He had a mischievous glint in his eyes as he seemed to enjoy the internal battle I was having in my head. " So back to my story-" He drawled in an attempt to irritate me before he continued. " Your mother married me because I had her secret and I threatened to ruin her with it if she did not give in to my wishes." "And what exactly was her secret?" I asked. "She killed your father." He responded and glanced at me probably waiting for my reaction at what he just said. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Scandals brew in the air once more.
