Chapter 14: New Purpose [2]

I won’t be losing my life anymore. I’d remain alive, but at what cost?
"Do you think that’s a good idea?" The second woman from the bunch asked and they all exchanged looks again.
"Of course. Why not? He’s harmless anyway so there can’t be any problems." The second man with brown hair spoke and the bald headed man nodded while humming.
"We can make use of him since he technically owes us his life. He’ll do anything we ask him to, yes?" The bald headed man looked at me and my breath stumbled in my chest and I instantly nodded.
"Um... can I ask a question?" I breathed out and the haughty woman shot me a sharp look.
"No, you may not. Humans here are not permitted to speak unless spoken to." She snapped and I flinched, just as the bald headed man tsked before nodding at me.
"You can ask your questions, human. You get a pass in here." He offered and I let out a long breath.
"Who are you all and how did I get here?" I asked and the brown haired guy shrugged.
