Alice POV
My friends' visit yesterday went well but it was awkward. Alex never joined in our conversation but he was there all the time watching my friends like a hawk as if they would do something to me.
Not that he was looking at them menacingly. He just sat there watching my friends and listening to our conversation. He remained aloof and impassive but he intimidated them effortlessly though I am not certain if it was intentional or unintentional.
I tried to ignore his presence and focus on my friends but it was hard to do. His presence is so strong and is something that cannot go unnoticed.
So I watched him in the corner of my eyes and I knew that he was once in a while glaring daggers in Martin's direction especially when Martin was trying to make a conversation with me.
Though he didn't do something about it, the way he looks at Martin makes me antsy and uncomfortable talking to Martin.
