Chapter 542: A Message Through the Shadows
One Month Before
Two days passed after Tobias left the building.
Two long days.
Two days where the images from the dungeon refused to leave his mind.
Even now, as he sat alone in William's chambers, Tobias could still hear the sound of Victoria's laughter echoing inside his head.
Louis had died screaming, and Victoria had watched it happen with amusement.
Even Selith had smiled with delight as she cut up Louis.
Tobias pressed his fingers against his forehead slowly.
His stomach twisted again.
Even Ryker had been unusually quiet since that day.
The wolf had not spoken much.
Not since they had seen what truly lurked beneath that building.
There was no room for doubt anymore. He had wanted information and he had gotten it. Victoria was behind the plague, which was really just black magic.
Tobias exhaled slowly.
*We cannot stay here much longer,* Ryker finally said.
"I know," Tobias replied quietly.
