The Unseen

Chapter Eighteen

    You left her alone without locking the door. Dorcas whispered despite her anger, striding in her long dress across the halls.
      She had collapsed, she seemed more cold, more pale and more fragile than when she had first arrived here, her brown hair and blue eyes losing their colour, I didn't suspect that she would even be able to move in that state.
   Well I guess she double crossed you then, you should have been more alert.
       You shouldn't worry so much you know, Im sure she's still in the walls of this mansion.
    The walls of this mansion. Dorcas sneered halting in her steps. The walls of this mansion are just as dangerous as the outside of it, the dark one has eyes;I do not know who they are yet, in the confines of this mansion, and God helps us they initiate the girl first.
    Samuel walked exhausted looking ragged and bruised into his room, discarding his weapons unto the bed ,he held his shoulder wincing in pain, finding a stool in the dim lighted room, he sat down staring at his wounds, fearful eyes following his every move, tearing off a piece of his burnt shirt, he admired his ugly scars and deep wounds.
    Taking off his shirt he squinted his eyes, wincing in pain, walking through another door in the room he exited. Li Fei exhaled a breath of relief, crawling out from behind the cupboard, staring at the swords and sticky blades that now lay on the bed, she shivered, who uses blades and sherikins nowadays, what kind of people were this.
   You seem to like staring at katanas an awful lot. Li Fei nearly screamed on feeling the cold metal on her neck, she could feel the sharp edge grazing her neck.
  I was just looking at them. She defended, about to turn around..
I wouldn't be in such a haste if I were you, the blade in my hand was resharpened just two days ago, it will cut through iron and steel without having to strike twice.
     Please...
Good girl, now slowly turn around with your two hands in the air.
