In the desert I saw a creature, naked, bestial, Who, squatting upon the ground, Held his heart in his hands, And ate of it. I said, "Is it good, friend?"

She dropped her head immediately, entirely unwilling to look up into his dangerous eyes, and silently prayed that he would just leave her alone. Alexander noticed her lovely eyes gazing frantically down at the floor, completely avoiding his own. He was instantly enraged. He desperately wanted to see her eyes—her beautiful, expressive green eyes that perfectly revealed exactly how terrified she was of him. He fiercely wanted to see those fearful eyes looking up at him.

I watched Zora drink everything in with awe and delight. Eventually, Roman and I accompanied Zora down the stairs and she stood there as people approached, taking her hand and welcoming her. Among them was Emelda and her family. As Emelda approached her, she pulled her into a tight hug and to my delight, Zora reciprocated, embracing her back. Emelda, then introduced her husband and three children, the least of whom was a girl named Penelope and she had the same vivid blue eyes that Zora had. I heard her tell Zora she was six years old, and as they engaged in conversation, a strange feeling came over me.

She only stopped tormenting Sylvia when the latter was on the verge of dying. Naturally, the Wellses didn't give a damn about Sylvia's condition, seeing as they only cared about their son. They just left her on the ground before leaving the area. When Sylvia woke up, she was reduced to a lunatic. But she still remembered everything regarding the Lamberts. Seriously, that woman was insistent on getting what she wanted from the Lamberts.

I nodded. "Your wish is my command, my Queen. I'll take my blindfold now," I warned everybody else, and touched the knot Sohan made before then began to unmake it.

I glanced and saw her looking at the high way and then her watch. She's in such a hurry...

I can feel my tears rolling down my cheeks. I don’t like this. Stop it, please. "I'm not crazy! Stop this, please! No, I'm not crazy! Just please, stop!" "Hey! Stop that! Heavenly, listen to me!" The stranger successfully reached me and he held both of my hands before he forced me to look at him. There, I saw his peculiar eyes again. Like it’s calling me... I can see a whole new world inside those pair of eyes. "Hey, calm down. Please."
