Chapter 78

  “They have tricked us.” Balkan growls and bangs his fist on the table. “We sat here sitting like fools, waiting for them to arrive and they left the town just like that.”

  “Whose fault is that?” The Witch says, wrapping a strand of her hair in her slender fingers. “Who told you to go and see her? And even if you wanted to, you should have been stealthy about it.”

  “Don’t blame me, witch!! Why can’t you use your magic now?”

  “I will use it when I want! Even Zagan is easier to control than you.”

  “I am not your plaything!! No one can control me.”

  “Why are you here? You have no purpose here. You should be doing what you were told to do. Blood Moon is not a prophesied event, it is our duty to paint the moon in blood. I think it’s time now that you give your friend a visit to.'' The Witch says smirking.

  “And what will you do?”

  “I have an idea of where they have gone. Zagan and I will handle everything.”
