The Merdel Genesis [7]

[ZAFIK]

"Zuhair, you guys need to stop," Crisela said to Zuhair when she portaled to the Merdel house to see them. She was hoping to have a word with the couple, but she found it relaxing having cleaned up. 

The stench of blood and a thirst to ruin Udra was lingering in the house and it didn't take long for Criselfa to know how much it hurt to be in their house. 

There on the floor was the blood that had dried when Zuhair had delivered her babies on her own. There were still umbilical cords that were sketchily cut. 

Of course, there was another piece of that in Criselda's house, but unlike Criselda who had burnt the cord, the Merdels are not doing anything. It was almost like they were hoping to have a better future, but then moving on was never going to be easy. 

They had lost something they would never get back.
