Sequel: Two Breaths Walking

Heartland

Chapter Seven

The dark and murky cave would have scared Alice if she weren't as dark as that cave.

"Most women don't like these kind of things, darling." The boy suddenly said.

Alice's eyebrow shot up, "How so?"

Then suddenly, she was pinned to the wall as the boy leaned dangerously close to her.

"Well, it's a cave, darling. Unexpected things could happen here." He smirked.

For the first time in her life, Alice's heart was beating fast and her thoughts was racing in her mind.

She slowly reached for her knife at her back.

Then in a split second, her knife was at his neck as his knife was at her heart.

"Feisty little girl, Are we now, darling?" He smirked playfully again as he mocked her.

Alice growled and then placed more pressure to the knife at his neck.

And then, he backed off and grinned at her.

"Most girls would scream in this situation."

Alice frowned and continued to follow him.

"Well, you're not like other women."

"Enlighten me."

"Well, You're cunning, devious, wicked, atrocious, witty, and dangerously charming."
