START OF CHAPTER 37
On your way back to the Castle, you couldn't stop thinking about the information Duke has given you.
You stopped at the Castles door, hesitating to open it. You turned away and walked down to a small lake next to the Castle, sitting down on a rock. You sighed as you threw small pebbles into the lake, watching the fish swim away from them.
"She confessed her feelings to me. She wouldn't, fake them. Right...?" your hand moved up to the necklace and held it.
"This is the fearful Lady Dimitrescu after all...she would play in any way with her victims.."
Each thought you had were tightening the grip around your necklace.
"I can't believe I would've nearly told her that I-"
Something behind you interrupted your thoughts. You jumped off the rock and hid behind it. A few footsteps approached the lake and stopped there, you looked up from your hiding spot and saw a lycan.
'Shit..I shouldn't have traded that knife...'
The lycan though, seemed to be in pain. It tried to wash off the blood that was coming out of its leg. You observed it for a while and realised its in way too much pain to be attacking anything.
'What do I have to lose anyways'
You stood up and slowly approached the lycan. It quickly turned its head to you and hissed, backing up a few steps. You didn't say anything and stopped, trying to make it feel comfortable in your presence. You slowly rolled open the bandage on your arm and washed your blood on it off in the lake, while the lycan watched. You then looked at it and then to its injury.
It hesitated but came closer to you, showing its injury. You started to wash it and gently put the bandage over it, making sure it was secured. The lycan looked at the injury, then to you. It stood up and jumped on you. Weirdly enough, you didn't feel scared.
The lycan growled at you and ran off. You stood back up and looked after it.
"That was...an experience" you cleaned off the dirt from your clothes and sighed, walking back to the Castles door.
"Fuck...I don't have anything to cover this wound" you held the wound, which was still bleeding.
'How have I not died from blood loss yet, is this also a part of the infection..?'
You took one more look outside and opened the doors to the Castle, closing it quickly, so the cold wouldn't get in and harm the daughters.
'I should've closed it quietly..'
A swarm of flies approached you,
"Look! Look! Second-Mother is back~" Daniela giggled and wanted to give you a hug but stopped.
"Your arm!" she grabbed it and checked it out.
Bela appeared behind you and also took a look at it,
"Cassandra, get Mother!" she commaned her, Cassandra didn't hesitate and quickly dissolved to get their Mother.
"I'm actually okay. It doesn't hurt, you don't have to worry about it"
