I stared at the empty spot where the stuffed toy had just been.
One second, it had been sitting there like an innocent child's plaything. The next? Gone. Just… vanished.
Sebastian and I stood frozen in place, completely dumbfounded with what we had just witnessed. My pulse thundered in my ears, the logical part of my brain scrambling for an explanation, but there was none.
"What the hell just happened? Could this be the work of witches?" I whispered, my voice barely audible.
Beside me, Sebastian let out a slow, amused chuckle. It wasn't the reaction I expected.
"Well, Your Highness," he said, his grin widening, "I think we just found our bodyguard. I believe no witches were involved."
I turned my head slowly to glare at him.
"No, Sebastian," I said, my voice dripping with irritation. "The correct words are: we just lost our bodyguard."
Sebastian snorted. "Details, details."
