Chapter 52:Close Call and A Song from a Past Life

When Adryan saw the hand, he had a sudden urge to kneel and kiss it.

This desire arose quite quickly and the redhead bit his tongue to get out of that light trance of adoration.

A horror rose in his heart at this reaction as under his coat he prepared to put on the Burnt Band.

'Shit shit shit why now?'-Adryan's thoughts had become unruly but knowing that he couldn't stand still all day he approached with calm steps but a heavy heart and placed the documents on the table while he took the money.

He quickly counted them verifying that all the 80 pounds were there but he did not dare to ask for more money for fear of how this witch might react.

He never lost sight of the witch while he counted the money, which allowed him to see how she began to read the documents and the simple act of moving the papers had a sensual air that was difficult to ignore, so biting his tongue again, he made a slight bow to this witch.

"A pleasure doing business with you"

When he said that he turned around and quickly left the room.

When the woman was alone she lowered the hood of her robe allowing one to see her very beautiful face.

Beautiful blonde hair cascaded to below her shoulders accompanied by emerald green eyes that looked gentle, and her lips were full and ruby ​​red.

Now a soft smile began to form on her beautiful lips as she looked at the room door.

She had originally planned to kill the one who brought her the information here but a reminder of her spirituality made her stop. Apparently, this man was not simple.

While the woman kept that smile, she didn't realize that in a window behind her, there was the reflection of another blonde woman who kept her blue eyes on the blonde at all times...

When Adryan came out the first thing he did was quickly put on the Burnt Sash and he quickly did several Shadow Jumps to get as fast as possible from the bar.

When he completed the fifth he took off the Burned Sash to save spirituality and began to move quickly between the alleys and roofs.

When he got home, the redhead checked all his traps, and seeing that none of them were active or tampered with, he didn't even feel relieved but instead set up a few more traps while keeping the revolver in his hands.

He set up a 'minefield' inside his house and kept watch all night for fear that the witch would come to visit him.

The red moon hung high in the sky while Adryan was hiding on the roof waiting...

This is how the hours went by and the red moon fell and the sun rose and morning came but at no time were there traces of the witch.

Sighing slightly, the redhead went down from the roof where he was hiding, and still, with a revolver in hand, he went to the kitchen to prepare something...

He hadn't had any dinner and now he was deathly hungry and his body was overheating.

This time the amount of food he made for himself would be able to feed a family of 7 adult men of 2.00 meters without a problem.

He ate for 2 hours and when he finished it was 7:00 am and he was caressing his jaw.

It hurt from chewing so much and now he was wondering if after all this he would have to see a dentist...

Sighing, the redhead drank a lukewarm coffee so that the food would go down well.

Knowing that it wouldn't be long, the redhead grabbed a piece of paper and wrote a formula on it while he waited for 9:00 am to arrive.

While sitting he crossed his legs and rested his cheek on his left fist as he tapped rhythmically on the table in front of him and hummed a song under his breath.

This time it was a song that he listened to throughout his childhood and always listened to when he felt down.

"Time passes

And the memories

They are moving away now.

We were angels

And from heaven

We gave seeds of love....."

His voice was soft as he sang and he let memories of a better time come to his head...

He did not dare to sing it in Spanish because he did not know what could happen so he could only sing it in Loen.

So he continued quietly singing an opening from his childhood of an anime that he always saw with his younger brother in their small bedroom from a classic square Tv, but now he was singing it alone in a house that did not have the warmth of 'home' and with no one to accompany him.....

It went on like this until 9:00 am finally arrived and someone knocked on the door of his house.

Realizing that he was lost in the song, Adryan got up from the chair but felt his face wet as he raised a hand to his face. Adryan felt the tears that fell from his eyes and simply let out an empty laugh.

Wiping away the tears with his hand, he calmly went to the door and opened it allowing him to see a very tall woman and a man with blue eyes.

Smiling at them, Adryan moved and allowed them entry into his home.

Nathan and Sasha looked at each other and with a sigh, they calmly entered the house while Adryan closed the door.

They arrived at the living room and seated in some armchairs Nathan was the first to speak.

"We accept the deal, Mr. Chaplin"
