The look on Epic’s face when I finally saw her after what seemed like ages, was definitely not the one I’d imagined when I was still under the impression that she had been kidnapped.
She stood frowning as I busted through the door and threw my arms around her.
“Oh, Epic! My baby sister!” I exclaimed, a bit dramatically I admit.
“Wha- Alice!” she groaned. “When did you get this strong?”
She didn’t pry my hands off though so I knew she wasn’t that mad that I was hoarding all her personal space. She wrapped one arm loosely around my waist and patted my back with the other hand.
I loosened my grip a bit. I knew for a fact that I had grown considerably stronger ever since I'd started living with Aaron. I always ate well and even had blood, thanks to him. Staying with him had been really good for my health and it might not have been a bad idea after all.
I pulled away and clasped her shoulders, smiling. “You have no idea how glad I am to see that you’re okay.”
