Chapter 527: She wanted to help
"You know, at this point, I am just going to assume you have fallen in love with me," Elliana whispered without opening her eyes to look at who had arrived in her room, making the witch sigh.
"How did you find out it was me? I even suppressed my energies and masked my scent," Leila said as she sat beside her on the stool.
"Well, your presence is just like you. Confused," Elliana whispered.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Leila asked, feeling offended.
"Your energies, no matter how much you suppress them, won’t retain my kind of suppression. They give vibes of a mixture of negative and positive turmoil. Just like your heart. You want to act like a bad person, but your heart stops you from doing things most of the time, and now you are dangling between what is even right or wrong anymore,"
Elliana opened her eyes gently before looking straight at the witch, who looked at her without masking her emotions.
Elliana was kind of right anyway. And though it surprised her how this girl was able to judge her character so quickly and accurately even when those witches couldn’t, Leila kept quiet.
Maybe those witches knew the truth too. Didn’t Azrael say she wasn’t a fool to trust her like Arizona did? And then why would Arizona show her that death absorber machine when she very well knew she could tell Azrael all about it?
"And now you are thinking what to choose. Who to believe and who to betray?" Elliana said.
"I... I feel lost," Leila surrendered and was about to say more when they felt a negative energy.
"And it’s funny you are lost near my daughter," the words resounded before Azura arrived, and as soon as she did, an electric strike immediately attacked Leila.
