The sounds had changed…, Alex held her breath, but kept on walking at the same pace automatically. Her instincts told her something was wrong. Some birds were flying up from the trees, and there was a change in the monotonous rustle of the leaves. She was just approaching a wide path in the forest with large old trees along the sides, and the path ran straight through it on a lower level. Alex felt very vulnerable. As more leaves were falling down on her and on the path, she was sure of it. She was being watched. And not just by one person, but by several. Alex used all her senses trying to scan the area around her, unnoticeably.
