There was a slight hint of desperation mixed with the deep green swirls in them—the desperation of finding a way out without getting caught.
"I don't see him around." She mumbled under her breath as she took a step forward. A sigh of relief followed her words. "Thank God." She took another cautious step forward.

'I am so doomed.' She cursed herself internally without looking behind her. She already had a fair idea who it was.
