Her posture was that of a frightened deer, as her terror-filled eyes sought the dark interior. "It is safely over," I said weakly, for my breath yet came to me in gasps. "The brute is dead." "And you are not killed!" Shall I ever forget the glad ring in her voice? "Oh, thank God! thank God!" The sound of these eager words yielded me a fresh measure of life.
Then I stared down myself into the Moon Pool, and there, sinking, was a little maid whose dead face and fixed, terror-filled eyes looked straight into mine; and ever sinking slowly, slowly vanished! And I knew that this was Olaf's Freda, his beloved yndling! But where was the mother, and where had Olaf found his babe? The Russian was first to speak.
The face at the door grew ghastly and the eyes terror-filled. "There are more ways of hearing than one!" she muttered. "Cap'n Daddy, I am coming!" Who was there to stay her with word of caution? Who was there to control her as she made ready to answer the heart-call of her beloved Billy? Now that doubt had fled, a calmness possessed her. She was indifferent.
He was staring at her with unhappy, it seemed to her terror-filled, eyes. "Another of them?" She looked at him, bewildered at a loss. And then what he meant flashed across her "another of them" meant another of these strange, mysterious, awful murders.
"Oh, can't we just sit here and be quiet?" she pleaded, but he rubbed his chin and shook his head and sputtered: "Oh, rats, you can't see the river, now that they've turned on the electric lights here. Come on. Besides, it'll be cooler right by the river." She felt a menace; the darkness beyond them was no longer dreaming, but terror-filled.
I went up-stairs to Halsey's room finally, from sheer inability to sit across from Gertrude any longer, and meet her terror-filled eyes. Liddy was in my dressing-room, suspiciously red-eyed, and trying to put a right sleeve in a left armhole of a new waist for me. I was too much shaken to scold.
Swiftly the lake became obliterated, and now out of that awful chaos of blackness and smoke and heat there rose strange and thrilling cries; the bleating of a moose calf that was doomed to die and the bellowing, terror-filled response of its mother; the agonized howling of a wolf; the terrified barking of a fox, and over all else the horrible screaming of a pair of loons whose home had been transformed into a sea of flame.
A scream inside the house made him sit up and listen. He was startled and bewildered. "Frank! Frank!" quavered the terror-filled tones of his aunt, as she knocked sharply at the door of his bedroom, "get up at once!" "What has happened?" inquired Frank quickly. "I don't know something dreadful, I am sure!" gasped the affrighted spinster. "It felt like an earthquake. It shook the whole town.
Her terror-filled gaze was frozen upon that awful figure that loomed so large and sinister above her, for the thing had moved! She had seen it with her own eyes. There could be no mistake no hallucination of overwrought nerves about it. The Blentz Princess was moving slowly toward her!
In her tormented brain those three syllables of sinister intent were sounding like a funeral knell.... At thought of Fantômas and Vagualame co-mingled, Bobinette's terror-filled heart fainted within her. Yet, prey to haunting terrors as she was, Bobinette pressed unfalteringly forward towards what Fate held for her. One reassuring thought came to hearten her.
