Alice was stunned to see him like that and turned slightly red as her mind filled with various thoughts.
After a moment of examining what she had seen in Matt's eyes, she thought, 'Was it desire?'
'Could it be... Does he feel a desire for my blood? I... Should I tell him?' She thought as her heart beat rapidly. Still, she soon calmed down and stopped her mind from wandering back and forth in silly thoughts.
She took several breaths, and when she finished, she heard Matt's voice from the side.
"I'm ready now. Are we going out today?" he asked, startling her.
She had trouble seeing him but still nodded after calming down for a moment.
"We'll be heading out in a little while. Is Isla ready yet?" she asked hesitantly, and Matt nodded.
"She should be ready... Oh?" He said suddenly as he raised his sight.
"A message?" he asked, raising his hand to receive a small message from a messenger bird.
