the elders?
But the dreadful part was the loneliness that comes with eternal life; when you bectoo afraid to make
bonds, because in the end they would all die. My gaze met Thane. He doesn’t exactly age fast, and so I still have
a lot of tto worry about that.
| nodded to the sorceress. “Fine, | would go alone with your code or whatever it is.”
“Good. Now let’s get to work.” She placed her bag on the table, taking out an empty glass container and then a
smaller bottle, the bottle was the size of my pinky; it contained a thick black substance, and next, she brought
forth a knife so sharp | was sure if | moved closer | could see my own reflection on it, and finally she brought out
an ancient book.
“Is that... the book of spells?” Axel asked.
“Yes, it is,” she answered with a small smile that states she didn’t expect Axel to know anything about that.
She poured sof the black substance from the tiny bottle into her hands, and then she approached me. “This
would help with the pain,” she said.
“Is that like skind of pain reliever?”
“That, but much more effective.”
She applied the liquid to my stomach. As if sensing what was about to happen, the creature ingrew restless,

“What is happening to her?” he questioned, | could hear the urgency in his voice.
“Soon, she would feel nothing,” the sorceress said before picking up the ancient book of * spells’ and muttering
smore foreign words from the book, and just as she had said, the pain disappeared.

“Just so you know, if anything happens to her, you will not leave here alive.”
“It’s not a very good idea to threatenwhen | have her life in my very own hands, Alpha and let's say... | don’t

demon took the shape of a black mist, a living, breathing, darkness. The room felt suddenly colder.
“May the abyss absorb you,” she whispered, trapping the creature in the empty vessel she brought along. “It is
done.”
| stared at the bottle, mortified, that had been inside for me, and I had tried to save it.
“She needs to be stitched, she’s losing blood.”
“I'll do it,” Thane said. Axel quickly rummaged through the drawers, taking out a needle and a thread.
“Here,” Axel said, passing the supplies to Thane who immediately went to work.

“It’s the thing you call ‘pain reliever’, isn't it?” questioned.
“I did tell you it does better than any pain reliever. You might be healed up, but you still need to feed to regain
