Chapter 91

"Their tears first cluster into frozen buds, and then -as though a crystal visor

- fill the socket of the eye beneath each brow."

-Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy

Zach had left a couple of voicemails and I didn't call him back. I wanted to, but dragging him with me to the party filled mainly with demons didn't sound like a very good idea after all. I was surprised that he wasn't waiting outside already. That sensual night connected us emotionally, but for now I felt that we needed a break from each other. I messed everything up with Arthur and I was scared to hurt Zach too.

Alexis had to die. She caused so much pain to everyone that I love and the dark lord himself considered her a threat. There wasn't any other way around this, but first I needed to figure out where she was hiding.
