Chapter 171: New Confirmations
Jules’ pov
When Blaze plunged the knife into the man’s heart, I felt my heart drop into my stomach. The man struggled and screamed, blood leaked from his mouth and he began to choke before finally crumbing on the ground, clearly dead.
It took a few moments for realization to slowly dawn on me.
I had just witness murder this close. I didn’t just witness it, a part of my mind reminded me.
Blaze gave me lessons as he did it.
When Blaze faced me, he was breathing hard. Blood was over his hands and his shirt. He threw his head back and laughed, shoulders shaking a little. When he combed his bloody fingers through his hair, I realized there and there that my mate wasn’t actually called a deranged alpha prince for nothing.
I didn’t realize I was trembling a little until Blaze was in front of me, bloody finger tilting my chin up.
"You alright, bunny?" He asked in a low voice, all traces of laughter gone from his eyes and I nodded as I let out a long exhale.
"That was almost traumatic." I mumbled after a few moments.
"That’s understandable. But you’ll get used to it, with time." He informed me and I nodded slowly, because in a way, he was right. I’d really have to get used to it, because with the way things are currently going, I’m undoubtedly still gonna witness a lot of killings.
"Your hands are bloody." I pointed out and he hummed as he took them in as if just realizing. His eyes zeroed in on mine.
