Chapter 50 - AVOID DEATH (2/2)

”I will torture them and give them the worse death that they would have ever imagined.”

Gael stood in front of Lise and saw agony in those beautiful eyes. She was no longer crying, but the pain was so raw for him to understand how much he had hurt her.

”Or live, and you will save their lives.”

Gael extended his hand and took the knife away from her, he grabbed the blade so tightly until his hand bled, yet he didn't winch at all, so did Lise.

No one knew since when she stopped being scared of the sight of blood, but Lise looked at Gael's injured hand with a blank expression, even when the blood dripped onto her shoulder and she could feel the warm liquid soaking her clothes, she didn't flinch.

”One day, I will kill you.” That sounded like an oath, rather than a threat.

However, Gael simply leaned over and kissed her lips briefly, while saying, ”I prefer that. Live and try to find a way to kill me.”

====================

”What happened to your hand?” Blue asked when Gael appeared all of a sudden inside her bedroom with a bleeding hand.

The smell of blood was the first thing that the little girl noticed before she saw him.

Gael dropped to the floor and leaned his back against the wall behind him. He had asked someone to look after Lise and deliver her some food.

However, he couldn't stay there any longer or had time to make a trip back to this manor, thus he chose to teleport himself here.

”Playing with a knife,” he said, his voice trembling. No. His entire body was trembling. He closed his eyes and the sight of Lise holding the knife against her neck was so terrifying, hence he snapped open his eyes again.

”You are a fool, even a little child knows not to play with a knife.” Blue frowned, she was trying to finish her homework, but the smell of blood was too strong. ”You can appear inside your room, why must you come to mine?”

”I don't want to be alone,” Gael said truthfully. He didn't want to be buried in his own fear. He didn't know that he could be so scared at the thought that he almost lost her.

This was bad. He knew where this feeling would lead him.

”You are trembling.”

”Am I?”

”Yes.” Blue then came closer and sat down beside him. She glanced at the blood that stained the floor. ”What happened?”

”I think I just managed to escape death.” He laughed. ”Damn.”
