Preston, who had recovered from his shock, hurriedly called out

Taya sat still in her kneeling position, drops of red wine dripping down her face. The deep red of the wine running down her fair cheeks, almost like tears, made her appear stunningly beautiful, yet also deeply sad.
He didn’t care about her feelings right now, though. All he cared about what figuring out just what the h ell was going on that he wasn’t privy to.
