he put his lips against the cup of her ear and then clucked his tongue against the roof of his mouth . he abandoned me there in that cold room . every instinct she possessed demanded she run . it was n't as if i had a sorry , sad life . with luck , there might be a vehicle in the warehouse loading bay . mason looked over my shoulder , trying to see what the hell was going on . there was no method to my madness . until then , please attempt to rest .
