Chapter 219: Worried
Jules’ pov
My mouth fell open, my heart dropping into my stomach in the next moment as the threat registered within me.
"What?" I whispered, suddenly feeling weak and dizzy. Andrian noticed and held out a drink to me, proving that he was definitely sick in the head.
"Relax, I’m not gonna hurt the kid." He began, the side of his lips twitching in amusement and I felt my knees wobble a little while my heart pounded against my ribs.
"Please don’t hurt him, I beg of you." I cried out desperately, mind racing and he waved me off.
"I won’t hurt him, I give you my word... but only if you agree to work with me. If you don’t, then all bets are off." He explained and I had to breathe through my mouth lest I pass out.
"You- you can’t seriously be threatening me like this, you can’t seriously expect me to just s- sit and let you take my magic, just so you won’t hurt my friend." I cried out and he shrugged a little.
"It doesn’t have to be a bad thing, don’t make it sound like that. Clearly, you don’t care about your magic, I don’t even think you want to get access to it again, plus... you’ve been able to carry on living life without your magic, so it seems like you don’t even need it any longer." He paused before starting to pace around.
"Look at it as me doing you a favor. If you’re left alone with the amount of magic within you, you’d always attract enemies, enemies bigger than your can handle. So, I’m doing you a favor here."
