Shirt stripped away, soaked, curled up on the cold floor.
Epione.
I removed my blazer as I stepped forward.
But a girl blocked my path.
Her crimson eyes locked onto mine, daring .
I exhaled sharply, forcing down the rage bubbling beneath my skin.
My blood boiled.
My mind was already calculating how to kill them.
How to make them disappear.
"Move."
I said, my voice barely containing my anger.
The girl tilted her head, silver hair cascading to one side. "And if I don't?"
Epione stirred, her gaze eting mine for a fleeting second before she curled up tighter, as if trying to disappear.
"I won't say it another ti." I snarled, glaring at the girl blocking my path. "Move."
She leaned in slightly. "Or what? What are you going to do-"
A blade of condensed mana ford in my hand.
I slashed.
Not deep enough to kill.
Just enough to draw blood.
"Ahhhh!"
She stumbled back, clutching her throat, panic flickering in her eyes as crimson seeped through her fingers. Good.
Without another word, I stepped past her, kneeling beside Epione.
I draped my blazer over her.
She flinched at the contact.
I bit down on my lip hard enough to draw blood.
