Chapter 40. Options

Victor POV

The rest of the day passed slowly, stretching out, and I simply wanted it to end soon. I know I'm on guard for Ayla so that she doesn't get hurt.

I even put on instrumental music in the room, because the silence was overwhelming, every order I gave Ayla obeyed without thinking.

Even when Soren came in and mixed a drop of blood into the water, nothing changed in her countenance... Well, it seems that she's even deeper, she's hidden herself so deep in the darkness that it will be very difficult to bring her back.

So that she wouldn't lie there all the time, I took the tablet and gave it to her to read, and I only see her eyes moving and occasionally her hand when she needs to change pages.

Soren finally entered the room, it's already late, this must be the last drop of blood of the day. He went towards the glass of water, but I stood up and held his hand.

"No mixing..." I said.

"But won't it be too strong?" Soren asked worriedly.
