“You are looking much better, ghoul,” the witch rasped as Quinn and Earth came to stand before her.
Sylvie had been chained to the cell wall the same way that Santos was after Earth had left her earlier.
“The same cannot be said for you, witch,” Quinn answered.
Her naked form was bruised and scratched, and her lips were cracked and split. She was a far cry from the ethereal beauty that she’d been on the night of her capture.
Her eyes burned with hatred, and she sneered at them.
“What secrets will you try to get from me today, I wonder? Maybe today will be a proper playtime, non?” Her eyes roamed over both ghouls, lingering on Earth. “I like the strong, silent types. Not much going on upstairs, but plenty down below.”
Earth snarled, and Quinn smirked at her, ignoring her taunts.
“I have a few more questions for you and then we shall move on to the playtime.”
“Oh goodie,” she said sarcastically.
Her eyes flashed with anger again, and she spat at Quinn. He didn’t even flinch and casually wiped away the spittle that had hit him on the shoulder.
“The ghoul who Santos dealt with, the one who arranged Itzal’s enslavement. He was dealing with the same ghoul again, yes?”
Sylvie narrowed her eyes at him.
“Why don’t you ask your precious ether again? Or would that give you a brain haemorrhage?” she said with a giggle.
Quinn backhanded her and she gasped, her head whipping to the side.
“Answer the question, witch. It will save us all the hassle.”
She glared at him again and bared her teeth.
“You will torture me the same anyway, non?”
Quinn shrugged.
“Maybe. Maybe not. The degree of it will depend on your level of cooperation. You are only dealing with me from now on, so take from that what you will.”
Her eyes flared at his unspoken confirmation that the Clergy was almost done with her, but then a cocky grin crept across her face.
“The Clergy does not need another witch then? I have a lot of years of experience. I would be an asset. I would be unwaveringly loyal at the right price.”
Quinn snorted.
“You have shown the value of your loyalty to Santos through some things you’ve said about him. I do not think that the Clergy has any use for you at this present time. Thank you for the kind offer of your services, though.” She curled her lip in distaste. Quinn moved towards her and pressed himself up against her, resting his hands on the stone wall on either side of her head and bending down to drag his nose along her throat. “Now, answer the question,” he snarled into her ear.
