Alicia's eyes scrunched in confusion. She hadn't been expecting those words to come out of Ezekiel's mouth. She was clearly at a loss as she stared at him as if trying to figure out a puzzle.
Even though she always knew it was futile to try figuring out anything from his stoic face, Alicia still tried and, as expected, failed.
Gripping the hilt of her sword, Alicia steeled herself as she spoke. "Is this what you really wanted?" she asked. This was the last time she'd ask him. If she still receives no response, then…
As she waited, Alicia's heartbeat pounded against her chest as second ticked by. She realized that she really had no choice but to decide now whether to still put her trust in him or not. The dark grey sky thundered once again as lightning strike a tree meters away from them.
None of them flinch, but the color in Ezekiel's eyes started to change. The lightless moons in his eyes turned red, causing Alicia's eyes to widen slightly.
