"Hmm… sounds reasonable, but I will not go against my own beliefs and rules." He turned his back to me.
"What?"
'This psychopath is really a hard nut to crack.'
"Why can't you just let them go? It's not like they had cast a spell or something." I rubbed the side of my head.
Something unreadable flickered through his eyes. He turned to me again, his face stern as if it was carved out of stone. "It is the rule in Bloodshade Pack—no witchcraft or magic allowed within its walls. If you are caught guilty, you will pay with your life."
"That's so absurd! They are living creatures too! Why must you hate them because of some baseless reasons?!"
"Baseless reasons? Ember, you will not speak to me in that manner!" His jaw tightened, his eyes narrowed as if he wanted to skin me alive.
"I don't see any reason why you have to kill them, master. They are my friends! My sisters! I can't just watch them die." Tears streamed out of my angry eyes.
