章 406: "Our moment"

Alicia just stood there with a towel around her chest and another around her hair, her heart racing and her body shaking slightly. Things were different. She wasn't sure what was going to happen when she took the potion in one gulp, but she had braced herself. 

She felt a strange sensation creep over her body.

It was as if she were shedding her skin, revealing a new, unfamiliar body underneath. She could feel her bones shifting and her muscles elongating. She had never felt anything like it before. And the interesting part about it all was that it didn't cause her any pain. 

She had stepped out into the dimly lit room to be sure she wasn't just overthinking it. 

When her eyes locked with Harold's, he just stared. 

He stared. Without a word and ever so slowly, he stood up from the bed and just continued to stare at her with all his attention.
