Chapter 72

~Kamari~

I never wanted to do anything like this and had trouble pinpointing my feelings. On the one hand, I'm pissed that Aneth did what he did, but now my question was, did he ever realize it? At what point did that take effect? I put my face in my hands, letting out an exhausted sigh. Calea had reversed the effects. That woman was a goddess sent. I didn't know what I'd do without her. Now, I sat by Aneth while he lay on the bed, still unconscious.

His face looked pale, his eyes darker than they should be. My heart was torn, "You fool…" my voice cracked. In a way, he took a so-called dagger for me. If I had been hexed, I would have killed my whelps. My soul burns itself alive as I realize it. I hear Aneth groan; I look at him as he sits up, holding his head, wincing. "Kadea's hell…" his voice is raspy, probably from the wretched roars he did when he battled. I walk towards him; he double-takes, then locks eyes with me, his eyes searching mine.
