I will open another portal to hell and make as many pacts as I have to

—Lucius

I woke with the feeling like the blood in my veins was boiling, like it was torturing me from the inside out. Depravity was screaming in my head. I'll f*cking kill them all, Lucius! Wake up. Wake up right now.

"I'm awake." I groaned it. "God, what the hell was that even?"

Demon incapacitation. From a very old grimoire. It takes a long time to set up, but it's f*cking effective. Someone knew what you were.

My eyes snapped open, where I lay outside the library when his words sank in. I knew who had known my secret. Sebastian had always shown interest in me, had always known, though I had never told him. "That f*ck. He just wanted her the entire time. Look, D, we'll get her back, or I'll burn all of us, I swear it."

I've seen what your fucking deals are worth!
