"Hello, Sebastian, why are you calling me?"
To his surprise, there was no response from the other end. "Sebastian?"
Two seconds later, a magnetic voice spoke through the phone, "Orion, it appears my words have not been
heeded."
It was Alexander's voice!
Orion's expression shifted abruptly. "Alexander! How do you have Sebastian's phone? What have you done to
him?!"
Upon hearing his name, Quinn's eyes widened in shock.
"Orion, don't be alarmed. | simply wish to play a gwith you."
