Karina shot up from the couch, her fingers clenched into fists.
"That bastard dared to show his face here!?" she roared, lunging towards Marcus. "Where is he!?"
Aiden was surprised by Karina's outburst. He thought since she had spared the old man and had been 'normal' for the following days, she must have gotten over his betrayal.
Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. She was still as enraged as ever. However, Aiden was more interested in why the old man approached him?
Their shared dislike wasn't a secret. Aiden had only let him and his fallen camp live because he felt they weren't important enough to kill. If it came to the worst, Aiden could just use them to break through the next class.
In simple words, they were pigs waiting to be slaughtered and absorbed by him.
Yet he appeared at my doorstep on his own?
Only two reasons popped up in his mind for the given scenario. Either something had made him desperate, or the sly fox was plotting something.
