The living room was filled with nothing but silence as Alicia watched him wage an intense war within himself. She knew… could very well tell that he was.
She could feel the rage and hatred swirling off him uncontrollably, filling the entire room with something so heavy and dark and dangerous. It was so strong and intense that Alicia felt if he exudes any more of this palpable aura, it would just be too hard for her to breath.
"It took years… many years of… madness." Those words seemingly were wrenched out of him and sounded like they were getting much harder for him to say. Then he began to falter, as if losing the war within himself.
