Chapter 258 - Emily's furstration

'I still need to talk to Astrid about building a better foundation before focusing on her runes so much, but I can do that tomorrow,' Erik thought to himself while making his way to Emily's room. 

With Emily, too, he didn't stand on ceremony and simply walked right in. 

Inside, he found Emily pacing circles in the middle of the room. Her black hair swayed, and the eyes that formed her intense gaze still looked like broken pieces of onyx with lava flowing through them. 

Her brow was furrowed in a clear sign of frustration, and her arms were crossed in front of her chest. 

Seeing her state, Erik grinned slyly, as he suspected what was going on with her. 

When Emily noticed him standing in the doorway with a grin on his face, she stopped pacing and glared at him. "Don't you knock?!" she cried out angrily. 

"No, I don't" Erik chuckled, the grin never falling from his lips.
