NALEDI’S POV
I must have heard wrongly. Because this fucker did not just tell me he faked his own freaking death.
“You don’t believe me?” Nicolai got up from the stool, pacing around my chair. “We don’t have time but I figured if I am to get you to trust me, then I need to be transparent. We are going to be partners after all.”
He dragged his stool closer to the couch I was placed upon and resumed speaking.
“You see, when I walked out on that fool Luka for trying to get more people in on our deal, I knew it was only a matter of time before he came for me. So I was freaking prepared.”
“As expected, Luka crossed the line and before the day was out, sent his vampire minions to take away my life and thankfully, my witches were right there.”
My eyes widened, “You also have witches?”
He chuckled, “Believe it or not, there’s more from where that came from. Caellum believes that he is hiding the existence of witches from the supernatural world but that is a lie.”
