The Race

"He's back," Alice said, her eyes glowing, but then they quickly narrowed, and with bated breath, she turned to her left and stared at Adriana.

Adriana hadn't been keen on the news that Erin was bringing, especially not wanting to set off Alice's paranoid senses, but when Alice sprang up and began looking at the paper frantically, her eyes couldn't help but wander over to it, the image of a very familiar man laying there.

The shock of seeing this man had Adriana subconsciously take a step forward, moving to Alice's side.

Speaking no word, Alice stared at her with a seemingly expectant look and soon, Erin joined in, but the younger woman kept it at throwing glances at both of them with a worried look on her face.
