Now it is only the man, the woman, the baby inside her, and the intruder inside the baby, sleeping. The intrusion breaks no skin, violates not a single cell of her or the baby’s body. And what the shadow has come for-the baby within the sleeping woman-will feel nothing. The shadow falling over them will not disturb their sleep. In her dream, a large owl perches outside the window, staring at her through the glass with huge, white-rimmed eyes. The memory of the dream will linger a little longer. Her anxiety will fade in less than a day and will soon be forgotten. The sleeping woman will feel nothing the next morning, only a vague sense of unease and the unshakable feeling that someone is watching her.
