Because he thought I was innocent

"Why…"

The floor seems to be swaying under his feet. Zachary Krauss grasps the doorframe to keep himself from falling. His head is dizzy. 

Why is that magic showing up on her? It's been a long time. The dark fae king is dead. He killed him with his own hands.

"Do you know anything about this magic?" Eli has noticed the change in his expression. "If you know anything --"

"How did she get this curse on her?" Zachary Krauss looks at Eli darkly. "Did you do it?"

"Sorcerer, are you out of your mind?" Devil snaps at him. "That's fae magic. Little Marshmallow is a ghoul sorcerer. He can't use fae magic. Can you use fae magic when you are clearly a moon sorcerer?"

Zachary Krauss opens his mouth to say that he can. He had used fae magic. That's how he knows what kind of fae magic is that. He was the one who took it away from the dark fae king. In fact, he is still carrying that magic inside him.
