Chapter 358: What Did You Do?!
"Is this the symbol for the spell?" That was the first thing I asked the moment I set my eyes on the strange symbol made out of blood, it didn’t look drawn by hand, almost like the blood clustered in on it by itself, forming this weird symbol. Did Emma succeed in rewriting Dace’s DNA? But this blood... is it part of the process? Just how deadly is this spell? Was this her blood or Dace?
I can’t control the innumerable questions dousing my head in need of a definite answer, I need this anxiety and coldness to stop, I need to find out why this place was trashed and why blood was everywhere, I was getting nowhere if I just stand here and stare and imagining the worst thing that could have happened.
I want to think positively... I have to, if not I might collapse from the amount of dread eating me from the inside out.
Owen wasn’t helping with this situation one bit, he looked to be pale just like I was. This was a shocking scene for him too and I knew that all too well, but there was something about his eyes that I couldn’t quite place.
"Yes," he answered in a faint voice.
"That means the spell must have worked right?!" I asked again, hoping damn well he replies to me quickly instead of spacing out, there is no time!
He ran his hand through his hair and gripped it hard with both his hands, shuddering.
"Owen!"
He shook his head.
"The spell must have worked right?! And did it mention the use of blood?!" This is why I wanted Emma to come back to us after she succeeded in translating the spell because I knew it might be something she couldn’t handle on her own, no doubt it is a powerful spell and the price must have been something else, I could only imagine.
What happened to thinking positively? I can’t with what was unfolding like some nightmare, I can’t breathe properly... I just wish this was all a bad dream and I should just wake up and go to Emma’s room, and I will find her fast asleep clenching her teddy.
